    The system is failing?

    It is this point exactly that saddens me the most that the incentive and reward for getting money far surpasses any other value like betterment of humanity or contributing something great. The people who strive for power are not the best out there actually far from it. They specialize in...

    I would not want to be specific although it is a similar economic situation.

    The system is failing?

    Well this was mostly my view until recently when everything went crumbling down in my country (not USA) and everyone lost their life savings. Since then i came to notice that what happened here is inevitable in such a system. You spend your life working for the penny and you are proud of it when...

    The system is failing?

    I do not believe that the capitalist system is the best what humans can do. I don't have an alternative system. I just think that this one is primitive and oppressive.

    The system is failing?

    I think that this economic system that we live under is primitive and oppressive. Some people do not have the skills to make money. The current system suggests that we teach people to be employees to the boss. Well, the competition for jobs and unemployment means that these employees will always...

    The system is failing?

    I noticed a while back how regular jobs are becoming progressively more just not worth it and consuming to the employed. They are working from bed literaly. Buying a house is a lifetime dream. People are too greedy i am sick of it, any raise or improvement in pay will be surpassed by prices...

    Root Aphids

    I flipped to flowering 9 days ago. Yesterday i checked thoroughly i removed a vegging plant that was heavily infested and there were no more aphids visible at all. The active ingredient is very targeted so much that it did not kill off the gnats so i was able to spot them but no aphids which is...

    Root Aphids

    No I am still hopeful that i will prevent them from infesting the entire plant. I did bud wash with h2o2 several times and it was ok. I stopped doing it mainly because it was a lot of work but also i think it took some of the terpenes away however it was not that significant of a drop if any...

    Root Aphids

    The result is ok for the leaves dead aphids all around but i did not eliminate the root infestation. I think they need a root drench. I might do it for the vegging plants since i can remove and clean the entire system after. The flowering plants are looking much better and it is not a product...

    You could wash them off with water to limit their numbers until your ladybugs arrive. Vent them well after the spraying to dry off the water.

    Root Aphids

    So I ended up getting Sivanto and applied it foliar. I am hoping that because it is systemic, it will get to the roots without having to flood the entire media. I am trying to avoid having to put it into a hydro recycling system. I deciced this when i saw that the outbreak is big and will be...

    Root Aphids

    I think that trying to eliminate it 100% by discarding all growrocks that way is overkill. So if i do that and miss 1 crawler i would need to do it again and it is so difficult to accomplish anyway. I read about botanigard and azamax they are great but i cannot buy them to my location since i am...

    Root Aphids

    I used peroxide for a long time i stopped using it less than a year ago because it does damage the roots even if you do not notice it and i used it way less than 6% which sounds crazy high to me. I could use it in early vegging but i would not use it just before or during flowering.

    Root Aphids

    I cannot pour 6% h2o2 directly, that will damage the roots and i am flipping them in a few days besides the flowering containers are too big i would need a lot of peroxide. I tried to kill mites with peroxide and it did not work. The most interesting think is the speed at which they recovered...

    Root Aphids

    They definitely look like root aphids to me. The small ones are white the bigger ones are brown and the oned on the leaves are green. I actually tried to drown them in soap but they survived that so i know they survive the flood and drain. I think they adapt to the environment so maybe the ones...

    Root Aphids

    Hi MP family. I am looking for ways to eliminate root aphids from my media that is mostly growrocks in flood and drain. What kind of soil drench do you use in this case if any? They seem to recede after a week since i transplanted into bigger pots with new res but i can still spot a few. In the...

    Light stress?

    You could get liquid calcium in several forms, the more various the sources the better. Avoid calcium nitrate this late in flowering. Calcium is one element that is beneficial to give excess of it but is a bit difficult to make soluble without nitrogen which makes it more costly. However it is...

    Best foolproof method. I am having to inject a bunch of beneficials in my hydro and i cant get to 1 in a million close to what is in mother nature. I am thinking about including something brewed directly from the soil but i am not there yet. The more i know the more organic stuff i am adding in...

    I totally get what you are trying to do but you will gain knowledge regardless. For a starters you just learned that when you add mg it is important to add double the amount in Ca. This info will only add up as you go. You will have to learn how to diagnose issues and how to deal with them...
