best leaf insects repellent
Brydestarted grow question 3y ago
I have found a few bad insects on my plants past weeks. Does anyone have experience with neem oil? Is it worth a try or would I be better of buying something else?
White vinegar with dishsoap didn't help much.
The bugs are: grasshoppers, stinkbugs, spidermites & fungus gnats.

Neem prevents chitin production during the growth stage in insects. This means it won't do much against fully grown insects. Neem helps to stop insects from reproducing in or on your plants.
It would definitely help with spider mites and fungus gnats. But please don't use it during the flowering stage, as neem is also not completely safe for humans. However, neem is no problem during the veg phase.
In my opinion, the most efficient method is a mixture of neem oil, potassium soap, and water. You can spray the leaves with it and/or water the whole plant.
Happy Gardening 💪😎

Neem could help with stinkbugs but won't do much for others. The only thing that fought a horrible mite infestation I had was diatomaceous earth, in soil and spray. It's also effective against other bugs. Bugs don't usually attack healthy plants, so something is probably off and making her weak.

Wilting and yellowing leaves after vinegar water solutionI sprayed a mixture of 1/4 spirit vinegar + 3/4 water under the leaves to get rid of aphids (which may or may not have been the problem) earlier today. Now checking on her, I see yellowing of several leaves and wilting of others, which has me worried... normal, or a problem? 😳

What nutrient deficiency is this?What nutrient deficiency is this? Or is it nutrient burn? I'm watering with 5.5 PH using half strength Nutes, Root booster & Calmag. I don't think it relates to spiders mites since I can't see any with my 30x magnifier. Thank you so much in advance.
