Welcome back to Hydroponics Daily, where today’s episode dives into the world of clover mites. These bright red mites are often mistaken for the more problematic red spider mites, but they belong to an entirely different species. While clover mites are usually seen on lawns, walls, and stones, red spider mites are a known pest for crops, particularly in greenhouse and indoor hydroponic settings. Despite their appearance, clover mites pose no significant threat to plants and generally stay outdoors, rarely causing indoor infestations. Host [Name] explains how these harmless mites are often wrongly feared and discusses why there's no need to eliminate them unless they're causing real problems. Tune in to discover the difference between these two mites and learn why embracing nature’s diversity is the best approach. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/pesticides-organic/eutrema-insecticidal-soap-sodium-free/

What if home fire suppression systems could work faster, do less damage, and actually adapt to the situation? In this episode of Fire Protection Insights: The Fire Safety Podcast, host Justin Hassell is joined by Yusuf Muhammad, Co-founder and Chief Design Officer at Plumis, to talk about Automist — a water mist fire suppression system built for today’s homes. They’re also joined by Matt Fix, President of Flow Fire Protection, who shares what it’s been like to install and promote Automist across Colorado. They break down how the system works, why it detects fires more intelligently than traditional sprinklers, and how it uses 90% less water to protect homes while minimizing damage. From regulatory hurdles to smart sensor integration, this conversation covers the real-world applications of one of the most forward-thinking fire safety tools on the market today.Follow UsFacebook @FergusonOfficialInstagram @FergusonEnterprisesLinkedIn @Ferguson-EnterprisesHave Questions or Feedback?Reach out at Podcasts@Ferguson.comPresented by Ferguson Fire & Fabricationwww.Ferguson.com

What if your favorite song could unlock forgotten memories? Hear about the latest discoveries from Dr. Xiaoyan Sun, a neurologist and leading voice in cognitive aging research, to explore how music can enhance memory. It can even improve emotional well-being in older adults—especially those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer’s disease. What You’ll Learn: Dr. Sun shares a powerful reminder from Dr. M. Lee Pearce: "What good is all the medical science in the world in extending life if it is not accompanied by an acceptable quality of life?"  If you or a loved one are navigating memory changes, or you're simply curious about how music supports aging brains, this episode is a must-listen!  ------- Aging Like a Pro began as a healthy aging seminar series in partnership with community centers, libraries and senior organizations that focuses on mitigating social isolation and loneliness while offering information for healthy aging and brain health.   Genetic factors cannot be controlled, but many environmental and lifestyle factors can be prevented or managed to reduce risk of memory decline and even Alzheimer’s disease.   If you are interested in learning more about how you can participate in the cutting-edge research being done at the University of Miami’s McKnight Brain Institute, contact us here: umiamimbi@miami.edu   We wish to thank the Ansin Foundation, Community Foundation of Broward, and the McKnight Brain Research Foundation for their support.   Guest Bio: Dr. Xiaoyan Sun is a board-certified neurologist with specialized training in cognitive and behavioral neurology. Her global medical journey began in China, where she earned her M.D., followed by a Ph.D. in neuroscience from Japan. After completing her neurology residency in South Carolina and fellowship training in Boston, she now serves patients with memory and cognitive issues at the University of Miami’s Memory Disorder Clinic. As Clinical Director at the Brain Endowment Bank, she leads clinical diagnosis of donor brains. Dr. Sun is also a dedicated educator and researcher, with a focus on Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders.   Learn more at: https://mbi-umiami.org/about-mbi/   Host Bio: Rosa Hart, BSN, RN, SCRN combines her expertise in neuro care and patient advocacy with a passion for storytelling. She is the creator and host of the internationally award-winning podcast "Stronger After Stroke", developed for the Norton Neuroscience Institute. This resource has reached stroke survivors and their loved ones worldwide, providing hope and practical strategies for achieving their best quality of life after stroke.

In this episode, we’re going to dive even deeper into the science and behind making reduced stature corn a reality. Plant physiologist Jeff Habben has been with Corteva Agriscience for about 30 years and has developed a tremendous depth of knowledge and expertise about how corn and soybean plants grow, develop and function. “ Hormones are very powerful molecules, and so what you can do is that you can develop bioassays that look at the level of hormones or how the hormones are sensed in plants. That's how we learned about how gibberellins, for example, can affect plant heights…The trick is that these hormones just don't control one thing. They control many different things in the plant. And the other part too is that these hormones interact with each other. So you need to know not just a specific hormone that you're interested in, but how they interact too. So it makes it very complex.” - Jeff HabbenSouthwest Iowa farmer John Becker farms about 2,000 acres and has also been a Pioneer sales representative since 2009. As both a farmer and a seed rep, Becker understands better than most that when it comes to genetics, one size does not fit all and everything comes with its own risks and rewards. Together, our two guests walk us through the decision making and process in introducing and developing new varieties. “  I mean it's no different than a stock portfolio when you look at your lineup for seed. Every single product has risks and rewards. We're excited as all get out because we have a lineup that has many, many less risks than we have had in the past… But my job is to individually work with every single customer and make sure that we put together a plan. It's my job to make sure that I know every single operational need. Everybody wants yield, but some people are more risk takers than others.” - John BeckerSome takeaways from this episode include: The approach John Becker takes to help evaluate risk and potential rewards with producers in his area.The complex process Jeff Habben must use to evaluate hormone activity and its reaction in the plant growing processThe future is bright with producers, agronomists and scientists working together to solve problems on the farm to meet consumers needsAgriscience Explained is brought to you by Corteva Agriscience and hosted by Tim Hammerich.
