    Default Scale and Murphy's Oil Soap

    I read in book Orchids Through Our Eyes, that you can use Murphy's Oil Soap on orchids. It says follow directions and spray on. There are 2 dilutions for this soap 1/4 c per gallon and 1/2 cup per gallon. Which do I use? Can anyone tell me? Do you leave it on? How often do you use? I have one L purparata ' Schuster ' seedling with it.
