This is the first year I've ever tried growing eggplant, and it may be the last; I've never had so many problems with a plant! Now I find that the spider mites I finally got rid of from the roses seem to have migrated over to the larger of my two eggplants, and the smaller eggplant has little white buggies that look like the photos I've seen of thrips.
I would sooner throw both plants out than use chemicals. Short of that, how do I get rid of these beasties?
