🌻 What is Integrated Pest Management (IPM)? 🌻
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an overarching strategy for preventing pests in your garden while minimizing risks to people and the environment.
👉 The Critical Elements of IPM:
1️⃣ Daily inspections. Inspections should include examination of: the plants, water, fertilizer, and equipment.
2️⃣ Pest identification. It is crucial to know thine enemy in order to implement the best practices for managing and eliminating a pest.
3️⃣ Selection of control methods. The right one will depend on the pest & its life cycle.
👉 Control Methods:
🌴 Cultural Controls: these modify the environment to make the cultivation operation an unaccommodating habitat for pests, such as reducing humidity and shaping the canopy to facilitate superior airflow.
🌳 Physical Controls: using mechanical devices and physical methods to prevent, trap and remove pests, such as filters on air intakes, the placement of sticky traps, and the removal of diseased plant material.
🌲 Genetic Controls: these emphasize selecting and breeding pest-resistant varieties and manipulating pest genetics. Genetic controls used by a cultivator would be culling all susceptible varieties from their grow, planting only resistant varieties, and altering the pests' ability to procreate.
🐛 Biological Controls: using natural predators, parasites, pest diseases and other organisms to counter the effects of pests or to prevent them altogether. Beneficial fungi and microbes inoculated into the soil increase nutrient uptake and the plant's disease resistance. Nematodes can be released into the soil to kill larvae of thrips and other insects that lay their eggs in soil.
✨ Chemical Controls: chemical controls, or pesticides, should be used when other control methods are insufficient, and only when it would be effective in the pest's life cycle. Pesticide selection and use within an IPM program is designed to identify ecologically sound options that are effective while minimizing harm. There are three products we love for IPM, which are safe for humans, animals & the planet: @PureCrop1, @TrifectaCropControl, and NukeEm from Flying Skull.

PureCrop1 ~ 1 Gallon +Swag
A natural Biostimulant, Insecticide, and Fungicide
We’ve seen it knock out aphids, spider mites, fungus gnats and a rogue bloom of mycelium. Zero phytotoxicity. Zero OSHA rating (not even gloves!).
🌱Eliminate Pests⠀
Eliminates sap sucking insects on contact by interfering with their digestive enzymes, without harming beneficial insects including predatory mites, lady bugs, bees, predatory wasps, and others.⠀
🌱Increase Plant Health⠀
Delivers fatty acids from plant based ingredients directly to the sap layer where it can be used immediately by the plant. This increases sugar levels, which can help plants resist pests naturally.⠀
⠀
🌱Control Mold & Mildew⠀
PureCrop1 pulls solid particles away from the leaf surface like soap, sterilizes the spore and biodegrades completely. Citric acid contributes to the antimicrobial and antibacterial properties of PureCrop1.⠀
⠀
🌱Reduce Plant Stress⠀
Increases the Brix level (sugar content) of the plant, leading to increased electrical conductivity, allowing the plant to respond more quickly to threats. Guar gum and Vanillin stimulate the plant’s natural defenses.⠀
