    I’ve worked in greenhouses, growing seedlings for tree planting, vegetables and flowers. We used fungicide almost all of the time.

    Insecticide was rarely used.

    But glysophates were never used as that’s a herbicide. The most common one is Bayer-Monsanto’s Round-Up and used on 98% of GMO crops in Canada.

    Bayer-Monsanto has been working hard to keep it on the market (even tho New Brunswick has been finding evidence that it may be the cause of an illness killing people there).
