Biological Control

Posted by Jan

Biocontrol-using living organisms to kill pests. Many strategies used with biological control. Inundative and inoculative biocontrols work best in a managed environment (uniform temperature, year round plant cultivation). Several categories of biocontrols. Sometimes you can combine categories. Most popular mailorder biocontrols are: mites and ladybeetles. Some biocontrols come naturally, and others have to be purchased. Parasitoids kill their prey from within. Some biocontrols are both parasitoids and predators. Some are even pest/crop specific. Customized biocontrols will be available in the future. Microbial pesticides are freeze dried bacteria, viruses, protozoans or nematodes. Most MPs must be ingested. Antibiosis is the use of microbial pesticides against other microorganisms. MPs produce antibiotics that suppress the growth of other bacteria and fungi. Epiphyte antagonists are used to suppress pathogens (microscopic). Some plants have developed powerful chemicals (allelopathic) that repel other plants. Gamma radiation used to sterilize insects-autocidal control. (read more...)

Organic marijuana is produced using methods that do not involve the use of synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers. "Organic" means that the marijuana has been grown in safe and healthy soil using natural fertilizers (free from synthetics). All rich, organic soils share certain characteristics. Organic gardening is microbial gardening. To produce medical marijuana, you must use a healthy, living soil. (read more...)
