After moulting how long till they are ready to mate?

Same as usual, a month, maybe a little longer.

I would give female ghost mantis a try after just 2 weeks. Male may need longer maturing time of 3 weeks. Female ghost can produce ootheca as early as just after 3 weeks maturing into adult when well fed.

mine won't mate that early. You don't do anything different?

Usually it is the male that is hesitate to mate, this is the species where i want the male to be mature 1-2 weeks ahead of female. Other than that, I don't do anything different for mating purpose.
