Hay G,,, I'm going to look closely at this pathogen subject at some point soon,,,good call on the E20 . I'm looking to deal with a friends broad mite issue soon. Going to order some Fukin spinosad and hit his shit with the hardest pesticides , growth regulators and systemics etc I can find,,I'm guessing a clean up on pathogens and a flush of systemics would be a nice finisher on the clone clean up
On March 23rd, several Denver-based marijuana grow operations were ordered to quarantine plants after it was determined they were treated with Eagle 20, a fungicidal pesticide (1). Myclobutanil-based fungicides, including Eagle 20, are applied to a wide range of edible agricultural products (grapes, apples, spinach, etc). When applied correctly, myclobutanil is known to have low toxicity to humans. Myclobutanil-based fungicides, including Eagle 20EW, are not currently approved for use in the United States on tobacco, the only (other than marijuana) smokable agricultural commodity. The toxicity and health effects of myclobutanil in the context of combustion/inhalation (versus ingestion) have not been assessed.
The following analysis summarizes some of the known chemical and physical properties of myclobutanil, and highlights the potential health implications of using this chemical on marijuana.
Mode of Action
Myclobutanil is the active ingredient in several brands of pesticides, including Eagle 20EW. Myclobutanil works by blocking a key enzyme involved in fungal cell membrane synthesis, leading to abnormal cell growth and eventual death of the fungal pathogen (2) Myclobutanil is a systemic fungicide, meaning it is absorbed at the site of application (ex. leaf) and distributed throughout the rest of the plant, thereby providing more comprehensive protection from fungal infection (2). As a systemic chemical, myclobutanil cannot be removed by washing treated crops, although residue will decrease in plant tissues over time. The final remaining residue levels vary considerably and are highly dependent on the rate of application, the time of last application before harvest, and how well the specific plant clears the chemical from its system.
I looked into the combustion issues to and came up with this to try next I'm sure you can get it in yank land
Take a look can be used on tabaco , I brought eagle 20 to this forum when I first found it it was not sold any where now eBay sells tons of the stuff , I'm friends with this comp how the fuckers give me some commission this time lol
Also remember that the vascules hold what ever the plant has been subjected to in its cells , from what I am aware off is once the five weeks have passed and we take cutting from new growth the new growth shouldn't have the systemic stuff in it only the old growth in the vascules in the cells
Check it out amistar sounds just what we have been looking for but not used it my self yet so who knows
