Would love to ask u a ? as to y my Neem oil is not Killin the worms on my bokchoy,love ur site,I have purchased the Neem from u on 2 occasions,hope u can reply,thanks
It emulsifies much better if you mix the castille and Neem first, then add to the water.
Thanks for mentioning that... I imagine it would mix better in a little warm water, too.
Thank you for the tip!!! I was having trouble in how to diluted

I am a believer. I have committed to neem this year, and have saved several cherry trees that were dying, they now have a chance to recover from the beetles. My cabbage and potatoes look fantastic. This is the best product I have ever used, I cant even begin to say how happy I am with neem oil. Made a huge difference in my garden this year. Thanks Gary for turning me on to this.
Thanks Gary, Neem oil I purchased at your store is doing a great job, has a real neem smell to it .
Perfect timing! I actually ordered some Neem Oil and a pack of seeds from your shop earlier today! Thanks for the great videos, I have learned alot.
PERFECT TIMING! Just got my neem oil and haven’t applied yet so this is wonderful cuz I have never used and need to! Kristy in Missouri zone 6b. 😃
👍just shared ur neem oil on my chilie/pepper video, need to buy some more to stay stocked up!
You guys are the greatest! Seriously, I love and depend upon your videos. Please continue. :)
More to come. Thanks

Hey Gary,
I'm watching your videos for quite some time now due to your entertaining and at the same time very professional style of videos.
Usually, I don't write any comments because I'm just a computer scientist from Germany that started gardening three years ago, for sanity sake, on a much smaller scale, so I mostly don't have anything to add. But one thing got me intrigued.
Whenever I watch American gardeners, they always talk about using soap for the application of neem oil. I always assumed that this might be a much more efficient way of dealing with pests that are susceptible to neem because they also get suffocated by the soap.
Due to living near a natural reserve, directly bordering my city, I always had to deal with large aphid infestations even though I mostly plant herbs, chilis, peppers, and tomatoes in pots on my balcony.
When I first started, I noticed that with my climate zone not being optimal for these kinds of plants and the fact that I'm bound to container gardening, it's detrimental to my crop that I don't stress out my plants too much, so I looked for alternatives.
I noticed after watching german gardening channels and browsing different gardening supply shops that cold-pressed neem oil usually comes with a dirt-cheap emulsifier mixed in, or you can buy that stuff separately. The emulsifier I'm talking about is called Rimulgan. It's a compound found in castor oil, but at the end of the day, I'm no chemist. I usually premix one-quarter of the amount of neem oil into the neem oil, so I only have to add water.
So my question then is, are you guys aware that something like this exists, and if yes, what is the reasoning behind not using it?
Is it about cost-effectiveness, availability, or side-effects?
It seems pretty weird to me that it never gets mentioned anywhere, so I assume that I missed something critical.
Anyways, love your videos!
You always put out must watch super informative videos that are jammed packed with must know tips. I just love that you don't waste anyone's time and we can all feel one step closer to becoming successful gardners because of you. Keep up the high standard & quality content videos. Thank you, Gary!
Thanks so much. My goal is to get to the point. Good luck this year!

My Neem oil that I ordered from you arrived and I’m very happy. I can tell a huge difference between the product you sale and “big box” Neem. It has even repelled the Japanese beetles on my beans!
Perfect timing as my neem oil just arrived and I was ready to spray! Bonus that the Castile soap I purchased has some peppermint oil in it also! I’ll watch to see how effective it is on the Powdery mildew on my zucchini’s and the bugs and caterpillars I have on various plants! Thanks for your very informative videos! Keep them coming! 👍 a fan from Northern Canada!
Thanks a lot for sharing all the information and tricks! Your channel is great! I can't wait for the results we will see in our small garden corner, haha

Thanks for the info!
Cold pressed neem is great and I use it for many things, but BT works so much better for me on caterpillars.
What is “BT”? Thanks.
Bacillus thuringiensis
Good video update, Gary, interesting discussion about the cold pressed versus the alcohol extracts (hydrophobic). I've always been a big fan of neem, especially for controlling fungal diseases on perennials and other high value crops. Neem is so expensive though, especially the cold-pressed stuff. Neem is also a broad spectrum insect growth regulator (slows them down, not technically an insecticide), so neem can have some non-target effects on other insects including beneficials like predators. If your only problem is caterpillar/moth/butterfly, organic BT is more effective and specific to leps and won't bother any beneficials. Like neem, BT is very expensive too. I usually just let my brassicas get some pillar damage in the summer, the new growth that emerges in fall and winter is always healthy and clean because the temps are too low for pillars come fall. Brassicas have this cool ability to kind of go into dormancy during the summer heat... they can get destroyed by caterpillars, lose all their leaves, look like dead stumps for a few months, and then put out lots of new healthy growth come early winter. I put wooden stakes all over the garden to attract wasps, which then destroy most of the pillars. Your gardens look lovely, thanks for sharing your tips, happy gardening and cheers
Thanks on the Bt. Appreciated

I cover my kale, collards, and chards with garden netting to protect from the psychotic white butterfly. It works like a charm!
I was doing that, too, but the last time one of those suckers got caught inside...all night... laying eggs everywhere. 😄 Then I had an adjacent borage plant go hog wild. It was a companion planting.... dang thing shot up like it was on steroids, but the other one 5 ft away did not. Anyway, it bloomed prolifically, so I needed to keep the cover off in order for the bees to have access to it. Rethinking that strategy for next time! 😉
Those butterflies can also be light yellow. Saw one in my garden this morning flying around psychotically lol.
Thank you Gary. I just checked the label on the neem oil spray I bought. It was just as you said. Not cold pressed. What a waste of money and time. Now I know.
Yep. I dont know why they are allowed to do that.

Just a learning gardener, these videos are fantastic - very practical. I believe neem oil works for some fungus and other things as well isn't it ? I've been using it on the tomato plants but I have to re-look at it since I am not mixing fresh batches each time.
What about diatomaceous? Your thoughts.
Thank you for all your help.
Neem oil, is so good
I agree

Hi Gary! Very helpful video. You mentioned you spray and then may harvest a week later. Is this how long do you recommend to harvest veggies after spraying neem oil? There were some articles saying neem oil being potentially toxic, so was curious about that, and whether or not you wash your edible veggie leaves (that have come into contact with neem oil) in a particular way before eating them. Many thanks!
Great video I have a question about tomatoes thick stalk but branches started getting gnarly and blossoms is not developing into tomatoes drying up and falling off I have one clump but looks all cat facey you are the tomato doctor please help
I had Japanese beetles on my squash! Never saw that before!

What about leaf-footed stink bugs. Will the neem work on those?
I has to get some oil for my garden
Anything I can use the hydrolized need oil for since I now have an opened bottle of it?. Lol
will this also work on a lemon tree for leaf curl which I think is leaf miner
Do you have to re-spray after rain or watering? I sprayed Tuesday, it rained yesterday and I'm wondering if I need to spray again today...
Hello I have a question on my radish pods I saw a lot of cabbage worms how do I get rid of them?
How does spraying compare (cost and time) to placing row covers on your plants?
Do you cut the eaten leaves off?
Really Enoy your videos. New to gardening and I find them very helpful, especially the container garden videos as that is mostly what I'm interested in. Question: Is it ok to mix 1 bop of Neem Oil and one of bt in the same 1 gallon garden sprayer?
Probably but I am never sure how the oil might coat the live Bt. So I tend to keep things separate. You have 2 sprays designed to do similar so you can rotate them.

Thank you so much. I have been a failure in growing collards. Mine looks exactly like that. It really hurt me so bad. I'm watching the instructions on that neem oil. Where can I buy a container like that? Love your brussel sprouts, too! I'm jealous of your beautiful carpentry construction around your great looking garden. Remarkable looks. thx
If you live in the US, you can get the sprayer from Lowes or Home Depot. Of course, they are also on Amazon.
The great thing aboyt collards is you can grow thwm as a fall crop... second chance! My seedlings got decimated by a hail storm... bugs got the weakened leaves. 😯 None made it to the ground.
I needed my cold pressed neem oil in a hurry and found it at ACE Hardware reasonably priced. Many garden departments at the big box hardware stores have it. But Gary sells it in his seed shop, too! You can get the pure castile soap cheaper at Walmart, and they sell it with fragrance... like peppermint.
@@joanies6778 Thanks a million! So helpful and God bless your garden 2020
My pumpkin plants have only male flowers. What is the reason?
Can you do it every few days if the problems REALLY bad or is that harmful?
This video made me itchy
Thanks for putting out this helpful content. About eight years ago you made a video treating cabbage worm with BT. Now it seems you are mainly using cold pressed neem oil. Is there a reason for the switch?
They both work. I found the neem to have a better general use in addition. It can help with smothering soft bodied insects as its an oil and in stopping fungus. But Bt works.

Gary absolutely love your videos. They have helped me so much. I have purchased some neem oil from our local CO-OP. But i believe what i got is garbage. In it's active ingredient is clarified hydrophobic extract of Neem oil, is this the right kind?? I would like to know how to order some seeds from you too.
If it says clarified hydrophobic it is garbage. You want 100% cold pressed neem oil. I sell it but make sure it is cold pressed and NOT hydrophobic extract.

Hi my Darling hope you ars well. When you wash your Greens would you wash them under running water, as i am a bit OCD about putting greens in the sink. I would have to have a Bowl jusf for Greens to was lol x . I really think to me you are amonst one if my favs Gardeners x Much love from a Wife. Mum and Nana of lots of Grandkids xx
So I run water over them too. But I have a big wooden bowl I fill with water and soak the leaves in that if I want a better cleaning. Kind of dip and dunk them in that. My wife hates bugs so I was out any stray ant or aphid. Dry them on paper towel.

Hi Gary! Love your channel, I’ve been learning a lot so thank you for that :)
I’m just wondering, how do you alternate peroxyde spray with neem oil spray? Or maybe you don’t use them at the same period of time? I have both issues at the moment and don’t know if I should do one and then the following week the other and so on. Assuming I can’t mix all of the ingredients in one spray 😄 thank you in advance for your help!
So I don't have to spray my tomatoes with neem oil. That is how each garden is unique. But I would spray h202 first, wait 2 days. It quickly does its thing and breaks down. So it is not sitting on the leaf. Use neem or other sprays and I would let them sit 7 days before using the h202 again. Generally speaking

Hi Gary,
just wanted to ask you and other viewers here if neem oil has/doesn't have a repellent effect on slugs, according to your personal experience ?
Thanks for the Info. Still, there are plenty of places, or even countries where people don't understand/know what is cold pressed Neem oil & how does it differ from the regular neem oil. The people using those so called regular neem oil & then complaining it's not effective at all. No offense, but Yes, this is where education matters. Anyway, I used baking soda & epsom salt together sometimes, and it didn't harm the plant. Now, I wonder if Epsom salt could be used with neem oil mixture , provided you may not get suitable alternative day to spray them separately. Unpredictable weather lately causing us to go for such compatibility experiment(s).
Great info.! Appreciate the feedback. blessings to great gardening.
Thanks for the video. Where can I get collard green and kale trees from? I sooo need them in my life😂😂

Hi Gary, I have horrible fungus gnat infestation in my potted plants' soil. Can I use the neem oil spray with soap on the soil or should I just use the solution without any soap in it? Also will the soapy neem oil solution be safe for lettuce leaves/other edible leaves?
You need the soap to disperse the oil through the water. I dont spray it on lettuces as I find it is a fragile leaf so test spray. If you put an inch of sand on the soil top it creates a barrier that kills off the fungus gnats.

Gary, can the neem oil help for the caterpillars that dig into cucumbers?
For caterpillar, you want to use BT. Neem is only mildly effective on caterpillars, if at all. The only people who tell you to use neem for caterpillars are those that are trying to sell you neem but do not sell BT (wink, wink).
will this work on vine borers already inside the vine?
Not if it doesnt touch them or they dont ingest it

It never rains here in the summertime. Should I spray the plants with clean water to get the soap and oil off of the leaves ? When should I do this ? Also does Neem work on aphids and spider mites? Thanks Gary.
Lee Ann Steinmetz I'm not an expert but no I don't wash off the neem oil, I just wait a few days before I harvest. Nemshak oil works on all sucking insects including aphids. Doesn't work as well for spider mites for me but try adding peppermint or eucalyptus oil. These strong oils irritate spidermites
Jigga Henry Thanks so much.
Any advice Gary for dealing with Japanese beetles? Thanks!
Yes please!! I have them on my blueberries and I don't want to spray with anything toxic
Does neem effectively kill Japanese beetles. I'm having a horrible battle with them. My soapy bucket is full of the smelly creepers. I keep wacking them into the bucket and more keep showing up. They really like my pole beans and hibiscus
Nope not really. I found dust works.

Do you continue spraying neem during hotter summer months on tomatoes, beans, etc?
Time of day is key...never in the hot sun. I would like to know if it's best done at dusk or dawn when the sun is not strong.
Joanie S I sprayed a mixture of Neem oil, peppermint oil and rosemary oil, using the lesser amount of Neem on my cucumbers. I sprayed in the evening, however it was still hot, about 90 degrees, not in direct sun. I also did a test spray 48 hours prior, leaves looked ok. The morning after I sprayed I noticed little light brown spots on some of the leaves, I think they were burn spots. I had heard that as long as Neem oil sprays and other oil sprays dried for three hours on leaves, the residue wouldn’t be left to burn the leaves. I think I learned a valuable lesson, and I’m just thankful my spraying didn’t do more damage!
@@jeannewilliams956 brown spots could be dead spider mites?
I thought you made a video regarding mushrooms growing in your garden. My problem is that I can’t find it. Are they safe and will they harm the plants? Can you point me in the correct location? Thank you.

The bugs have been eating the leaves off of a lot of the plants and I would like to control them with Neem. You didn't say whether it needs to be applied again after rain or watering (I asked this already but no answer). Would it be OK to mix the Neem in the watering can instead of spraying it so I can douse them with it and still get water to them?
He actually said it quite a few times. 😉 7-14 days reapplying, or after it rains......
@@Momma_Tomma 2 years later I long ago figured that out but it doesn't seem to stop the bugs we have. no matter what we do.
What about using neem oil on greens like lettuce, spinach,peas and tomato plants as well is it safe?
I dot use it on lettuces as the leaves are fragile. OTherwise i use it on a lot of plants. Always test spray.

Gary I bought a (ingredients on label)80% cold pressed and unrefined Neem Oil(Azadirachtin Indica),20% Emulsifier,UV Stabilizer &Anti-oxidant. I presume the 80% oil is 100% oil if that makes sense other 20% is emulsifier. What’s your thoughts.
I havent used it but 80% unrefined should work.

What about eating the kale and cabbage after spraying with Neem oil?
How did it taste?
I don't spray on the day of harvest... either Gary or another master gardener mentioned that recently. Just pick your leafy veggies you are going to eat that day before spraying the rest. Everything else is easier to wash it off.
How long after foliar spraying plants with Neem oil is it safe to harvest or consume the plant material? (I’m looking at you…Kale and Brussels Sprouts ;)
So neem has been used for 100's of years. I have no worries picking right away. But... I find I harvest just before spraying that way a good 5 days can pass.

I'm confused about when to use the Neem Oil. Do I wait until the temperature for the day is below 90 degrees? Or do I wait until the weekly average temperature is below 90 degrees? My area is going through a heat wave right now and the average temp has been 90 degrees for the past 2 weeks. I've noticed some invasive insects on my plants but, I'm afraid to use the neem because the daily temps have been so high.
Its daily. Later evening always is good.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thanks so much! Been watching your videos for years. Bought your book too. Appreciate all the knowledge I've learned so far.
How effective is the "water soluble" Neem oil?
I never heard of that. I always add soap and use the 100% cold pressed neem.

Has anyone used neem oil spray on other plants like cucs and tomatoes.
My castle soap has peppermint in it which I purchased from Costco.
I have been using it on all my plants! My floral plants like sunflower and other large leaf types have been getting eaten, so I use it on everything I want to save. Having said that, I stay away from blossoms because I don't know if it will harm the pollinators. Actually, I skipped several tomato plants this morning because it had a lot of blossoms, but I didn't see any insect problems there, either. The ones with no blossoms got sprayed. Sunflowers only get below the blooms.
@@joanies6778 Thanks
@@joanies6778 On the 4th we went by a crop of sunflowers and there was 20-30 cars stopped and people were coming out of the field with arm fulls of flower heads. There were people taking pictures of kids with the flower heads.
Is this safe to use for small sprouts?
Coating small sprouts with oil sprays is oil spray is more risky. A weaker mix is pest and test spray.

Out of the bottle the concentrate is 100% Neem. Does diluting, adding soap, etc change the Neem quality?
Not initially but I have never held it in the container, once mixed, more than a couple of days.

Do watering the plants remove the oil? Are do you oil your plant after watering?
Spray before watering. But the oil stays for a bit even with rain

Does the neem spray affect me eating the peppers I’m growing?
I dont think so. Its been around centuries. I try to harvest before a spray if things are ready but I dont worry about it.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN thank you for your quick reply. Will place an order of the Neem oil from you. Really like your channel, you’re a great teacher.
I am never rid of those white butterflies. They show up in March and never, ever leave. Constant vigilance required.
Does neem oil get rid of ants
Sadly no. Or at least the ants I get.

Has anyone lost a clematis by drifting neem oil spray? I neighbour reckons I murdered her clematis spraying neem oil on my raspberries whihc may have drifted over the fence. I reckon it's more likely to be clematis wilt that done it in.
eccentricoldcow no I have clematis on the other side of fence I grown my tomatoes. I spray regularly with neem oil. I spray the clematis all the time not paying attention and they are doing great.
I have clematis in my garden. Never had an issue. Neem didnt do that.

@@jiggahenry9471 Thank you Jigga I guessed as much My neighbour loves to get at me
@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thank you Gary, I guessed it was not the neem oil, and probably clematis wilt that caused the problem
My cold pressed neem oil is semi solid
Soak the bottle in warm water.
Thank you. I posted before I saw you mention that in the video
My Japanese beetles seem to laugh at neem oil.
Wonder if Diatomaceous earth might work?
Im not seeing any results on these Beetles either. I do snip/discard the chewed leaves because I believe they drop scents on leafs when mating. Others are attracted later. I just figured this out on Kiwis -- they dont chew on those hardly at all, but one in particular was getting daily damage. I snipped those chewed leaves and no more Beetles showed up. Im currently shaking Beetles into a soapy solution bucket. Prevent them from going into the grass and dropping eggs. Not sure if this will make a difference but I have about 30 in the Open Swim bucket so far.
@@joanies6778 dust in his store
That looks like a tablespoon, not a teaspoon!
He is using the pure Castille soap, which requires a tablespoon. If you use dish soap with addatives, you just need a teaspoon.
Why don't you use BT? I believe it's safe and considered organic for cruciferous vegetables.
Also...I bought 100% cold pressed Neem oil a couple years ago from another source and I noticed it's a lighter color than the Neem oil you sell. Does this mean my oil does not contain the part that stops the pest from eating? Thanks! I learn a lot from you.
I always wonder why people don’t use BT for soft bodied caterpillars too. I do use Neem for other things but not caterpillars
I really do not like white butterflies! Like you, they are all around my yard. I am fortunate to have a partner willing to run around with me, & scoop them up in butterfly nets. Stay at home fun!
Reduce the numbers for sure.
