I'm trying to figure out how to spray Captain Jack's on my plants without it dripping everywhere. The instructions say to soak the plant thoroughly, including the underside of the leaves, but they also stress not to spray to the point of dripping. Am I missing something? Is it really possible to do this, especially when trying to combat thrips?

One trick I've found is to put the plant inside a cardboard box when spraying. That way, I can really go for it without worrying about it dripping everywhere. After a while, I just let the plant dry before putting it back in its usual spot.
I just move all my plants into the shower and spray them down. Let them sit for a few hours or overnight to dry. It makes it super easy to clean up any extra spray from the walls afterwards!
I wish I could do that! I have about 125 plants, so I'm thinking taking them outside will be easier.
What works for me is to spray the plants, let them sit for a bit, and then spray again. It might drip a little, but not enough to soak the floor. I think that’s what they mean by not letting it drip too much.
Haha, I get that! Sometimes you just have to be a little less literal with the instructions.
Oh, so it's okay if it drips a bit? I'm thinking of just moving them outside for spraying!
