I also only use the neem oil as foliar spray on just leaves once a month
I guess I should have said,after bug problem tapers off use the neem spray you mixed use only about 1 time to two times a month to keep bugs away.donāt apply during heat of day,this can hurt leaves,or burn leaves tooā¦kinda like if we put on sun tanning oil and stand in sun all day u get burned. I guess wanted to make sure you are not applying neem oil too often,it will yellow the leaves.hope this helps ya
I hope you are doing the flush with pH balanced filtered no tap water,if not pH make become akaline,to high,from the many things dissolved in our tap water,tap water can be bad for plants.hmmm,must be bad for us too.
As an FYI because Iām a geek: Tap water constituents can vary based on location. Call the water department for a current report, itās free, normally. Some places that are in mountainous regions have better tap water than ground. Just an idea, anyway.
please, more picsā¦try to get a larger area in the pic. The leaves look wet so either it is raining or you misted before taking the pic or they are drenched in neem oil. They look healthy green, maybe a little high on the N side which would cause tip burns. But then again, so would the PH being off which would affect zinc and kind of have the same results.
If you are in organic soil, sometimes adding nutes makes it too hot for the plants. Just water and see if the condition improves. If yes, then you might not need any nutes till early/mid flowering
THis is different than the caterpillar problemā¦
