I know I have wittered on about neem oil before, however, I am giving it a try.  I have 15 Greyhound cabbage plants and I have sprayed them.  Mixed 5ml oil with with a few drops of washing up liquid to form an emulsion.  Added to 1 ltr of water and away we go . I will let you know if this works fellow diggers.   don't it feel good to be at it again

Hi wildseed, what do you use this concoction for? to keep the beasties off?

[Trillium]

It does. And much more:

I purchased many bars of Neem soap from an Indian food supplier and plan to regular lather up my arms, neck and legs in soap lather to keep away midges and other pests. Also gave bars to friends and family.

**But don't get it into your eyes - it stings something fierce.

Ahhh - but is it licenced for use as such Wildseed, and how long will it be before this thread gets locked? - I've had my fingers rapped too frequently by the mods to dare make any more comments!

Glad to hear you have finally realised what a difficult position the EU regulations have put this forum and its mods into SS!

But living in Canada, I can get away with it 

Thankfully we do not have the same restrictions as the UK and I state my own opinion on these types of products.

Hi.  I am trialling this to see if it is any good at keeping biting insects off plants.  I have done much trawling through the www and cannot find any thing negative to say about this potion.  As soon as i realise that this stuff works I will post the results.  If a bug does decide to have a nibble on a plant that is sprayed it dies of thirst as it cannot drink. Nasty eh?
