why are you preaching all this stuff anyway? just because it builds a resistance you shouldnt use it? should we do away with antibiotics aswell??
"Just" because it causes resistance? Yeah, that's but one very good reason to not deal with it. You must have missed all the rest of the stuff.
Do you
really want to get me started on antibiotics? Because as far as I'm concerned that's a tool that's been so over- and misused that we humans may very well be completely undone (i.e. made extinct) by one of the superbugs WE have created by the misuse of antibiotics. So, to sum up, yes, I think we should do away with the mis- and overuse of antibiotics. Antibiotics being prescribed, for instance, for a cold or flu.
or is it the health aspect? which btw no one has any proof. im not doubting that you may be a very intelligent person or whatever, but you are no expert so really it comes across as the regular internet rant by a grower. and theres hundreds of growers online who can use google.
Wait, dude... what? What's the lack of proof no one has regarding the health issues? I'm not appointing myself an expert, but I do appoint myself Ruler of My World and so do my very best to be the best Ruler of My World I can be. That means I spend a lot of time reading and trying to be as informed as possible.
try growing commercially wether it be grapes or wheat or weed, when you have a pm problem, you gonna let your family starve because of your beliefs? lose your business or lose hundreds or thousands in profit?? doubt it.
You don't actually know me, so... it's interesting this stance. What if I told you my family used to run a sugar plantation (over 1,000 acres)? Would that make any difference at all? You're telling me that the choice is to put profits over anything else, and you can't figure out where I land? What if I told you that I happen to be growing a market garden? Or is that not commercial enough for you? What the hell does it really matter, anyway? Are you trying to say that anyone who grows anything on a commercial level
must use this shit? Do you have any idea what these commercial growers have done to themselves by over- and misuse of products such as fungicides?
What if I told you that just this last March I burned over 12lbs of product because it had gone moldy from the PM vectored by root aphids? Right behind my house. Just threw it in the brush pile. Made absolutely certain there was no material remaining for anyone to try to smoke.
It's called "integrity" and some of you might like to try it on for size.
yes it probs will build a resistance. it ''might'' but it might not. perhaps it (PM)will be irradicated. anyway i dont mean to be a dick but i wouldnt go around giving people the low down unless i was qualified to speak on the subject as a scientist or ploughing money into research or whatever.
i feel sorry for tg, i have the same feelings toward eagle20 as him.
All I'm saying is READ THE FUCKING LABEL. Jesus Lame-jumpin' Christ, they say it on their very own label! It creates resistance. Period. I've found paper after paper discussing the resistance it's known to cause, and you can do the same thing. Not just via Google, but via Google Scholar (putting research assistants out of a job, that one is, but hey) which even tells you how often the paper in question has been cited.
You do know what a citation on a scientific paper is, right?
You must have missed Blaze's post, too. So much for stoner reading comprehension.
