Monarchs have been laying in my milkweed gaqrden now for about 2 weeks but for some reason, the larva don't survive for more than 2 or 3 days. I have been fertilizing the milkweed with peters 12-50-12 and the plants are beautiful and in full flower. They are attracting the butterflies and they are laying many eggs which hatch ok, but the larva are not maturing. Any suggestions?
