Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle
|
Good day!! The plot I am growing on this year for my big guys is fresh- never had anything but grass on it. In years past I have used a combo of neem and chlorasel for bugs and fungal defense. I don't have a chem license so some of the stuff I can't get my hands on, I saw something calledInfuse on here and was wonder ing what that is, and also if there are any other recommendations as to best use pesticides and fungicides. The chlorasel and neem combo did great last year on my howden and lumina patches, in fact out of all the farms around that grow pumpkins I had the least PM. Any suggestions?

insecticide: Bifen (Telstar) and MERIT 75 WP. fungicide: Root shield, companion, Actinovate, Milk, Eagle. Infuse as a last resort against PM. This Is my plan.

Hey Darren where can I find Bifren? I think I'm going to be in one heck of a bug war this year!

I think this site has the cheapest prices. Bifen IT for $22 and a 6.4 oz bag of Imidacloprid 75 WSP (Metit) for $38.59. Free shipping too. http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/
