If you start thinking about increasing the Brix levels in the plants you’re growing then you can create an environment where the mealybugs can’t survive those high Brix levels. This will also allow predator insects to thrive in that environment and therefor targeting the mealy bugs. Remember to focus on the 6-3-4 framework to build a fulsome regenerative ag system that will allow you to avoid the use of almost all crop protection products, whether chemicals or biological.
