God bless for this education. I live next to a forest and in a very humid climate. Time to get some neem oil to protect my first grow. And everything else you mentioned to have it on hand.

You can get it online on amazon, I just sprinkle some liberally on the top soil and kinda use my fingers to till them in the soil alittle bit. Add more as needed, watering will wear them away. I use them every grow, every time. Just as a preventative.

Donāt use neem oil with the lights on. Youāll kill your plants. It needs to fully dry before lights come back on or you burn the plants.
I use Captain Jacks in the ready to use liquid spray bottle.

Ok, cool. So turn lights out, let things settle, spray and then let sit for a few hours? Do you do the same thing with Captain Jacks ā turn lights out?

I do, but I donāt know that itās necessary for the CJ. More a better safe than sorry. It absolutely is for the neem.

Amen to that, Brother. Water around the region is Poison to these plants. Being in that proper range is SO important. I also fully stand behind the Apera PH20, I purchased awhile back on your recommendation. I could not be happier. It is a great Meter.
Anywayā¦A virtual Cheech and Chong room full of Killer exhaled smoke to you Brother.
Hope the 4 legged family member is doing well also.
Mr. Hellraiser. You are the Man!

Always if u foliar spray do it at lights out or minutes before. Oils in the sprays magnify the lights and cause burns that u wonāt want. Captain Jackās dead bug is better if u can get the concentrate as if u need to double up on the dose u can. U cannot double up on the already mixed stuff ready to use. Itās not as strong unless u super have to I would avoid any kind of foliar spraying as it brings on unwanted issues like wom and rot good luck
