I'm already having a hard enough time pushing myself to try a non-organic nute. Given the toxins and chemicals in that spray, I think I'll pass.

I would like to see your drip system grow.
Do you have a link to a journal?

If you mean the Chrysanthemum Cinerariaefolium extract called pyrethrin,
it is a totally organic substance.

Pyrethrin breaks down under UV light.

If you spray your clones before you take them in your room,
you will not "contaminate" any part of the plant,
that you would grow later,
you know the part that we smoke,
called buds.

The pyrethrin
will destroy the eggs,
before they can hatch,
in 7-10 days.

This is preemptive insect control.

Pyrethrin is valued first strike weapon
in my arsenal against all evil
invading insect bastards.

Oh by the way,
Do you eat bread or grains?

They use it in grain silos.
Pyrethrins have little residual effect.
In stored grain, 50% or more of the applied pyrethrins disappear
during the first three or four months of storage.
At least 80% of what remains is removed by handling, processing, and cooking.

You are eating the rest.

Rats fed pyrethrin at high levels for two years
showed no significant effect on survival,
but slight, definite damage to the livers was observed

Inhalation of high doses of pyrethrum
for 30 minutes each day for 31 days
caused slight lung irritation in rats and dogs

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), permethrin is a possible human carcinogen (chemical that causes cancer).30 EPA found that permethrin increased the frequency of lung tumors in female mice, and increased the frequency of liver tumors in male and female mice.24 The World Health Organization reports that permethrin increased the frequency of lung tumors in females in two out of the three mouse studies it reviewed.
Source

It's the genotoxic carcinogens that I'm concerned with; they do not break down so easily. Those, along with the interacting nature of permethrin with cell receptor sites (which elicit affects on the immune & reproduction system) have just sorta turned me off. Though it may only be an acute amount, all the shit these days that we put in to our bodies adds up.

Have you tried/considered ladybugs? If so, what are your thoughts on them?

permethrin is a possible human carcinogen.
please read that link, so you can avoid cancer.

Me, I scoff at cancer,
I eat well done charcoaled meat,
and microwaved food,
prepared on teflon cooking surfaces, blah blah blah......

You gotta die from somethin'

I choose death by chocolate, ribeyes, chivas regal, and good sweet smoke.

Roll me a fatty for desert.

Ha, don't get me wrong; gimme a greasy slab of meat and the sweet carcinogenic compounds of a fatty blunt any time of the day and I'll be amped. I just like to make a small effort to reduce the amount of toxins I intake and to make the bud that much better. And whether I truly believe it will do me good vs. simply looking to justify other bad habits, it's nonetheless something to strive for.

Anywho, let's get down to business. Being the lonely widow Cindy she is, I think I could give her good company.

I'm fine with every rule except mailing off samples. That's where things become illegal for me.
