I am experiencing what Greek philosopher Socrates said: \"all I know is that I know nothing\" (\"\u0395\u03bd \u039f\u03af\u03b4\u03b1, \u038c\u03c4\u03b9 \u039f\u03c5\u03b4\u03ad\u03bd \u039f\u03af\u03b4\u03b1\"). I perceive my self as always a student. I created kalliergo.gr back in 2010, charmed by the plants magical world. I am a Biomedical Engineer, holding a MSc degree on E-Business. For a living I help businesses to grow online. I am not an agronomist but wish I had also a degree on agronomy. I hope that you will find interesting and helpful information on KALLIERGO.","url":"https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/author\/ilias\/"}]}},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea.jpg",600,400,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea.jpg",600,400,false],"large":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea.jpg",600,400,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea.jpg",600,400,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/5f01e501d390c99b296f0dc4679b63ea.jpg",600,400,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Ilias Antonopoulos","author_link":"https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/author\/ilias\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"We encounter the flea beetle insect mainly on beets.
