Cap,
So I am finishing up a room that got hit hard by Grape phylloxera, red assed. First was signs week 5, i am in aeroponics, even did the Oregon state wine studies recommendation, and flooded my channels with 130 degree water for 10 minutes. That knocked them down to finish the run but they are still around half mutated from
azamax and not fully finishing stages now after two weeks of that. Would the root pack be beneficial to add to my arsenal? Or should I go straight to beauveria bassiana in the form of
botanigard 22wp?
Ive since taken steps to remove all dirt faster than planned and be full aeroponics at every stage, and I want to find a failsafe better than running imid or merit in veg stage full time.
The only spray I use foliarly is
Forbid by Bayer in vegetative for spidermite/leaf cruncher prevention, I got them bad a few months ago in veg and went nuclear, haven't seen one since and haven't sprayed it since, figure I'll do it twice annual and be OK if don't see any signs of them returning, I'd rather have those then these fucking phylloxera, I think I've read every study and everything possible, great French wine blight, every university study from Oregon State Ag. Dept. I want to watch theze phylloxera suffer, horribly
Thanks in advance.
