The more a person learns about organic products, the more a person learns a good bit of it is hype.
Doesn't mean it is bad, or that it will not work though!

Agreed. But I think that holds true for most products whether organic or not. Chemical corporations are some of the wealthiest out there. If they know you need it and are willing to pay, the sky's the limit. I had a relative who worked in accounting for a manufacturer of medical products. Said they made some liquid that hospitals used, was basically a benign substance. Said it cost them 30 cents a gallon to make. They charged the hospital $300 a gallon. Then of course, the hospital puts their profits on it. Whaddya gonna do? :arghh:

Same with grow equipment and nutes. You know, something like CNS17 for an example, retail shops pay only $30 per 5 gallon bucket, but they sell it for around $130

Not the same mark up as your relatives companies mark up, but same kinda thing.

A world revolved around the dollar is a shitty world

when I received a reply to an email I sent them they told me that a spreader should be fine, and in the instructions it does say to use a wetting agent, I know not the same as a spreader, but similar. However the reply did not reply to my specific question of n-90, so I plan to call tomorrow



I agree the iso alc. is a concern, but at the dilution used I have no clue what the ppm is of the iso...yet

Advice from a 100 yr 5th gen farmer in your area Ken.

The key to kill mites is to add 2% oil with the insecticide and spray at night. If there is a heavy infestation you have to spray twice 7 days apart to break the hatch cycle

are any of the plants in the ground affected, or only those in pots/bags?

This caught my attention. I have 4 plants. 3 are in 20 gallon smart pots, one is in the ground. The 3 in pots are showing signs of a type of mite, I have found eggs but no movement. I believe I may have found some dead spider mites or at least not moving...not positive though. The interesting thing is the one in the ground hasn't shown any stress like the others yet. Granted I have not put the scope on it yet to check for eggs. I'm wondering if there are terrestrial bugs that eat the mites off the in ground plants and pass by the potted ones.

yeah but the key here Ken is to mix it up, they build tolerences, dont let them, And its oil so dont mix it strong, theyll burn, go 3/4 strentgh, spray 1 day with Oil, next with COLD water, almost rinse the plants, wash off the dead mites/Eggs, then spray oil next day different mix different oil, Soybean oil works GREAT, Karanja Oil, Peppermint, Orange, citrus, Neem, Hit nodes, staet at the bottoms, only spray leaf bottoms and stems, stalks, After all bottoms n stems n stalks Then spray tops of leafs at the end, be done before 5:30am so they can dry naturaully before sunrise, watch for burning, rinsing every other day is important, Make a AACT for Spray, UP you micro life, Make a FPE the enzymes will fight for you!!!
