Google neem oil....super simple......but for a contact kill pesticide, neem wont kill all pest only soft bodied insects......neem is most effective when pest ingest it.What pest are you trying to get rid of??
edit oops didn't see the not online part lol.........you can find it at garden centers sometimes but that is in the states.......where you located??
Also you might want to try some dish soap and water try to hold them off until you find a pesticide,but that depends on what pest.

I was using AquaSafe to De chlorinate tap water. The PH was floating from a 6.0 to about 7.5 I have been trying to keep it around 5.5 to 5.8.. I have switched to rain water about a week ago. So the half eaten leaves are not from bugs?

I see you are using Hydroton are you straight hydro?
What system of growing are you using?
Ebb n Flow is in my Veg, I use tap water, I don't air out to remove chlorine.
In Fact I add Dawn Ultra, 1/2 tsp to 10 gallons in my reservoir.
(Not anti microbial Dawn!)
My plants have never looked healthier.
Started adding it to stop a gnat problem, problem was gone in72 hours!
I scooped the suds up and dumped them on the plants letting it run through my rock wool back into the tray.
I then rinsed with PHed water in my sprayer.
Did it 3 days in a row, now I just add some to my Resevoir.

Oh yea, check Your PH daily but if it drops consistantly use your tap water to raise it.
My tap water is 7.2 ph, I run feeds at 5.85-5.95 ph..

Lowes or Home Depot. It's not gonna say neem oil huge on bottle. Gonna say garden insect spray. Look for active ingredient of neem oil or azadirachtin. This is a ready to use bottle. ( they already diluted concentrate in water and tax the hell out of you for it) neem oil concentrate is way better and cheaper. Find a hydro store for that.
