Bio Neem - Neem Oil: A Natural Solution To Pests
Neem oil serves as a completely natural way to protect your cannabis plants against pests. Extracted from the South Asian neem tree, neem oil possesses several repellents and fortifying molecules that reduce or eliminate pest infestations, without affecting beneficial insects such as ladybugs, worms, bees, etc.
Insects pose a threat to many cannabis growing operations. A few aphids or whiteflies might inflict a few holes here and there, whereas a full-blown infestation can lead to stunted growth, reduced yields, and even plant fatalities. Although they work well at taking out insects, they can leave harmful residue behind on your flowers and damage delicate soil microbiology. Bio Neem is a biological, biodegradable, and zero waste product for your plants.
Although neem oil does a fantastic job of defending cannabis plants against attacks, Bio Neem goes a step further. This high-potency extract contains a higher concentration of the naturally occurring molecules azadirachtin, meliantriol, nimbine, and salanine. These chemicals deter pests and even stop them from eating.
This neem oil helps to repel a whole host of insects, including:
- Aphids
- Whiteflies
- Mites
- Nematodes
- Woodlouse
- Thrips
- Sciarid flies
After application, the formula biodegrades without damaging the soil. In addition to insect pests, this organic preparation also helps to prevent fungal diseases that cause mould and rot.
How to use
- Add 2ml per litre of water.
- Apply as a foliar spray upon first signs of pest larva.
- Mist the stems and both sides of the fan leaves.
- Apply in times of low light
- Can also be applied routinely as a preventative measure.
- Only apply as a foliar spray during the vegetative phase. Do not spray flowers with the formula. Instead, apply as a root drench.
- This oil solidifies below 15ºC, so it is recommended to store it in a place where the temperature exceeds 20ºC.
Each bottle of Neem Oil contains 30ml of this insect-repelling formula.
