Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

1. -In setting up a new grow system in an enclosed green house, completely screened enclosed, would there be any problems in introducing and setting up ladybugs at the same time as putting the plants in ? I would set up ladybug habitat, with feeders as recommended for ladybugs.
2. -Is it better to wait until a pest problem arises before doing this ?
3. -Will the ladybugs wander throughout the greenhouse keeping is somewhat pest free ?

i've used ladybugs in my basement, storing them in the fridge and only releasing a small handfull at a time.. they did a pretty good job on the aphids.. i actually need to order more soon..right after i clean up my growbeds

I would think early intervention is always a good thing..
