At Afterglow, we pride ourselves on a holistic approach to pest and pathogen management. By using Integrated Pest Management techniques, we seek to introduce nature’s most powerful balancing acts to create an ecosystem favorable to our plants. We exclusively source organic, naturally derived, beneficial, and biological agents to create this biosphere within our indoor, hydroponic systems. Our primary focus is, and will always be, prevention and EPA 25B Non-Pesticide products, like horticultural soap and organic peppermint oil.

Our product list includes:

  • ZeroTol, a 25B exempt hydrogen peroxide 
  • Circadian Sunrise, a 25B exempt, OMRI listed organically sourced Corn Oil, Peppermint Oil
  • Athena IPM, a 25B exempt blend of Rosemary Oil, Peppermint Oil and Lemongrass Oil
  • Regalia, a plant extract that boosts the immune system Fallopia sachalinensis
  • Grandevo, a beneficial bacteria, Chromobacterium Subtsugae
  • Venerate, a beneficial bacteria, Burkholderia
  • Azasol, a OMRI listed, organically derived source of Azadirachtin from the Neem tree
  • Pyganic, an OMRI listed, organically derived source of pyrethrum from the Chrysanthemum flower
  • Bioceres, a beneficial fungus that protects plant’s roots, Bauvaria Bassiana
  • No Fly, a beneficial fungus that protects plant’s roots, Issaria/Cordyceps Fumosorosea
  • Cease, a beneficial bacteria, Bacillus Subtilis
  • Stargus, a beneficial bacteria, Bacillus Amyloliquefasciens

In addition, we recognize that the highest quality product comes from preserving these delicate flowers. Our use of naturally derived and OMRI listed organic pesticides stop when the very first buds begin to bloom. From that point, we rely on beneficial predators to keep our garden free of pests. For all these reasons, we consider ourselves to be more than just a hydroponic cultivation facility, we are a bioponic facility, bringing the balance of nature to high quality cannabis production.

Our predator friends include,

Rove Beetles, Dalotia Coriaria

Beneficial mites, Stratiolaelaps Scimitus, Amblyseius Andersoni

Beneficial Nematodes, Steinernema Feltiae
