That is one of the most misinforming statements I've heard in a while. Neem oil has been consumed by humans in India for thousands of years as an anti-parasitic and rubbed in the hair and on the skin. The stuff is good for animals and humans. It also kills almost every mold that attacks cannabis. I use it in my outdoor organic vegetable garden in bug infested texas and it keeps like thousands of different bugs at bay. It is certifed Same Day Harvest by most Organic certifying Agencies. I could go on but I think I've made my point.

I use it up to three weeks into flowering. It works best if used every two weeks from the begining. It wards off pythium and damping off fungus so use it right from the begining. It kills powdery mildew fast aand keeps it away. If you soak your plants down every two weeks You will NEVER get spider mite so you won't need to get rid of them. I add about 40ml to every fresh res change, and it keeps the fungus gnats out. Azatrol and Azamax and the like are extracts of Neem. The Neem tree is one of those plant like cannabis that has a million uses.

Great thread. I found grasshoppers and white flies (can't remember their name...) yesterday and they are doing quite a bit of damage. I neglected to add neem to the soil on my autos (yeah lazy, ran out of neem, didn't think I'd have an issue) and I am three weeks into flowering. I usually do not foliar my plants and was wondering if I could just use neem in the regular watering schedule with the same results (obviously delayed until absorbed). Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I guess if they've used it in India for thousands of years, it must be good for you. They've also been floating corpses down their rivers for thousands of years, too. Ask yourself this question. Would you rather spray a vegetable-derived oil on your plants, or neem oil which dirty indians have been rubbing on their crotches for thousands of years to rid themselves of crabs and lice? Hmmm....Neem oil is systemic, meaning it's absorbed through the stomata of leaves and distributed throughout the stem, roots and flowers. Horticultural oils are non-systemic and will evaporate in a matter of hours. Both kill bugs dead!

Why is it bad that neem is systemic?
fyi: did you guys know canada is like the only 1st world country that mines and sells asbesthos to india still. And indians use that shit like its nothing. And are dying from it.
