Welcome to the UC Davis Western Flower Thrips generation time projections for Kings County for 2015. The phenology clock is telling us that overwintering adults are present at this time. Thrips degree-day accumulations are close to the 30 year average so far this year and we're projecting the peak dates for the first two post-winter adult generations at March 31st and May 8th. Generally, TSWV doesn't begin to increase until the third and fourth generations of thrips are present. We'll be posting regular updates on the situation from now on.
