Gardening and Landscaping

Ok gardening buddies, I have both something to contribute and another question this time.

1. Pro tip, if you are growing tomatoes in pots and suspect that you have too nitrogen rich soil because of blossom drop and no fruits setting, first leach it by watering the pot for I dunno, 10 mins. Next mix about 2 lbs of white sugar into a normal watering can for plants full of water and water the tomatoes with it. The reason this works is because the overwatering drains the soil of anything that may be stressing the plant and second the sugars high carbon content does something to the bacteria in the soil to make them focus more on the sugar and less on breaking down the nitrogen rich material in the soil for the plant to use. I wrote that last bit from memory so it may not be quite correct scientifically, however 2 days after I did this to some 8ft. tall plants with not a single set fruit I had fruit setting and have ever since.

2. Ok, now here is my question post. Does anyone have a good way to control white flies? Please let me know if you do
