Next Guideline: What is Crop Control and How Does it Work?
Using chemical pesticides in cannabis cultivation can have deadly effects.
A study done by the University of Berkeley found that 84 % of medicinal Marijuana samples contained large amounts of chemical pesticides, fungicides and insecticides. Chemicals like Myclobutanil, Imidacloprid, Avermectin, Etoxazole, Bifenazate that when burned become Hydrogen Cyanide, which is a toxic gas notorious for it’s use in concentration camps in World War 2 and when inhaled causes all types of health issues like cancer, liver and weakened muscle function to name a few. These side effects are chronic, not acute so it can take years to reveal themselves as well.
According to a study published in the Journal of Toxicology, 70 percent of the pesticides sprayed on a bud of cannabis can transfer to inhaled smoke going straight to your lungs.
Our goal is to see an end to growers using these toxic solutions on their gardens.
