No issues ? You been drinking the Monsanto Kool-Aid ?
a mean like a cap full wont kill us, not like there is no after effects.

"no issues" was probably a poor choice of words. How about. "Its preety harmless to cats, dogs and humans in small doses" and is less harmful than rat poisen.

Ingestion of >85 mL of the concentrated formulation is likely to cause significant toxicity in adults. Gastrointestinal corrosive effects, with mouth, throat and epigastric pain and dysphagia are common. Renal and hepatic impairment are also frequent and usually reflect reduced organ perfusion. Respiratory distress, impaired consciousness, pulmonary oedema, infiltration on chest x-ray, shock, arrythmias, renal failure requiring haemodialysis, metabolic acidosis and hyperkalaemia may supervene in severe cases. Bradycardia and ventricular arrhythmias are often present pre-terminally.

85ml isn’t a whole lot about 3 shot glasses

I’m going to be trialing an organic herbicide in the next week or 2 I’ll let you know if it’s any good,I’m skeptical but you never know
Glypho is just easy to mix and use and cheap.

Vinegar works but it works out to expensive for the amounts I use.

I agree targeting and controlling numbers is the way to go.

I like a roo pattie and a venison shank myself...I haven't tried possum stew and I'm not keen to.

A few people shotting possums here, the pelt is popular in NZ I heard. I think its only $5 a possum but can easily shoot 50 a night and the buyer cleans, guts and skins them.
Smoked roo tail :-P:-P possum goes in the yabbie net dogs eat whatever they can... dont get me wrong i love the wild life ive raised a few roos and a crazy wombat that thought it was a dog (didnt wanna release him). But when it comes to the crop i dont take chances to much time money and effort...

I’d rather limit my exposure to the toxic chemicals that at least give some pleasure but each to their own.
if it works as well and is around the same money ill try it so let me know.
Glypho is used widely because its pretty harmless (some councils you don't even need a chem card to use it- I have one anyway) and the cost is good and it works.

Gigs your going to make the same mistake I just made.

I'm going from 4 plants and a pound to 5 plants and maybe 5-8 oz. We have to fill in the whole canopy to get the best results. Its a waste of lectricity and time otherwise. You have a 600w light from memory you have to have a 3.5 x 3.5 - 4 x 4 canopy before you flower for best results.
