I love caps Bennies! I had no clue his foil pack did this!! What application did you use per gallon? I didn't know it could be watered in? Does it interfear with the other Bennies?

All the packs are 100% compatible.:cigar: You may use the foliar pack as a drench to take care of fungus gnats, grubs, RA, harmful nematodes... combined with the root pack and you will have one hell of a defense against all pests and pathogens including pythium, fusarium, PM, etc. .

It's 1 tsp/liter. Roughly a tablespoon per gallon.

I have used merit as a preliminary kill and then followed up with the foliar pack 1x/week since. I have not seen an RA in abotu 8 months now. I only had them once.

This was the result of doing two full strength drenches of OGBiowar Root and Foliar pack, four days apart. The method of application was to brew 7 grams per gallon of each pack into a tea with nothing but earthworm castings and 20ml/gal molasses. Usually I feed 1/2 - 1/5 strength tea every week, full strength when I see a problem.

after three applications of full strength tea in a 14 day period, there are no more aphids in my grow. the last colony held on pretty tight...but there were no survivors.

Seeing them fuckers dead like that should get
MMJ Pic of the Year :snaphappy:





So does hitting full strength tea 3 times in a row create too much of anything?




@We Solidarity
How long did you brew for?

So far as I've seen the tea doesn't create an overabundance of anything. Using it three times in a row would be more like a flush for your plant than anything.

I brew for 24 hours usually, every now and then I let a brew go 48. Diversity in your brew time and methods will create diversity throughout your applications. Definitely a good thing when it comes to soil biology.

Im confused on those instructions.. so 7 grams of each pack per gallon of water ? I'm dealing with fliers right now, and i spent tons of money on met 52.. the plants are showing mini phantom deficiency 3 weeks into veg.. so i'm worried they are hurting my rootzone.. they are in 3 gallon smart pots.. I put 8 grams of met 52 per gallon of dirt..


For the 20 ml molasses is that per gallon of water? And i'm guessing for a 3 gallon smart pot you would want to use about a 1 gallon of water for a soil drench.. so for 20 plants thats 20 gallons..


For 20 gallons in the rez would you recommend only 20ml of molasses or more? And 7x20 = 140 grams of foliar / root ? Do i have that right? I noticed it clumps up at the bottom should i stir it while its brewing?


Also how much EWC should i use for a 20 gallons of water? 5 lbs in a panty hose or more / less? please help these fucking root aphids are the worst
