# Any advice for how to quarantine plants ?? I’m learning the hard way…

_Lagt ut av Elle den 2024-08-02_

Any advice for how to quarantine plants ?? I’m learning the hard way that it’s best to quarantine new plants 😵 one of my plants has thrips and I think it spread to some of my other nearby plants - how far away do these plants need to be from others while quarantining ? Do they need to be in a separate room or is ~6 ft away okay ??

Ideally a separate room, some pests can spread through the air!

thrips fly 😬
