when to stop spraying neem?

ive read that it can make the buds taste bad if u use it after like week 4 or 5. any truth to that? or can i just keep spraying? as long as mold doesnt take over of course...

I used to cease spraying at the first signs of pistils. Beyond that point, generally the plants were healthy enough that it was no longer needed.

I don't know when one should stop for sure though. It's just so potent, and nasty smelling, that I always worry about contaminating fine reefer with it.

i've sprayed within 3 weeks of harvest and had no ill effects.

maybe next year ill cut a few clones and spray neem on them up until the end, or close to it. see how or if it affects the buds. that would be nice if i could spray until the last week

You can taste it if you go to far into flowering. I think you are pushing it after you flush the last 10 days/ I wash with RO and Hudson Sprayer get any dust critter legs and whats nots off of there. but never after flush and wash last 10 days. Keep her ph at 6.25 no higher and she will maintain her Calcium and be strong against bites and mold.

Hi there cali chronic i would recommend for you to continue spraying neem oil every month then you will greatly reduce any infestation from any type of bugs trying to get established peace

Hey I got a question about applying neem, When you mix it up and spray how much do you mix. It says like 1/2teaspoon or something for a quart but if i make a quart everytime I will probably waste alot. Do you make a smaller batch?

yeah i make a batch with 2 cups of water. i use 1/4Tbls., aka 3/4tsp.
if i were to make a batch that was a quart, i would use 1/2Tbls.
a quart is a quarter of a gallon, and 2 cups is half of that.
also that is the minimum recommended dose(2Tbls. per gallon), so add a little more if needed

edit: the way i do my math is change the tablespoons to teaspoons. there is supposed to be 6tsp per gallon, right? well, since 2 cups is 1/8th of a gallon, u divide 6 by 8, which is 3/4tsp.

good shit. thanks man
