Neem Bliss (5lbs) - Neem Meal for Plants - Neem Cake Organic Fertilizer

Watered my gnat infested indoor plants using the suggested mixture and it worked well get rid of them. I need to reapply biweekly but it has kept the pest at bay.

Using neem meal as a plant immune-system booster with visible results on our organic farm in the disease- and pest-prone Deep South usa. This seller is great, with excellent price and quick shipping. Will definitely purchase again. We have been using the neem meal mostly by soaking it in water for up to 48 hours, then applying at the roots. The liquid can also be strained and sprayed, but be aware that neem can kill bees, so if your plants are in flower, only spray neem at dusk because it needs 3 hours before bees are safe. We have also used neem oil as a spray, but I'm liking the neem meal a lot for its systemic effects on plants. We have now planted our fall greens by incorporating a light sprinkling of the neem meal into the seed trench or over the whole bed for broadcast seed. There are very few sources of information for growing organically in the deep south, so we've been experimenting a lot. Here's what happened this summer: Our first planting, I only learned about neem meal after everything was already half grown and the tomatoes, cucumbers, and squash all had spotted, wilting leaves that started at the base and moved upwards. The neem meal slowed this down but did not stop it. Our second planting, we used the neem meal fermented liquid from the beginning, starting at seed planting, every few days, and the cucumbers and tomatoes have recovered from their early signs of the same disease symptoms and are growing strong and beautiful. So what I learned is that using the neem from the beginning of planting made the huge difference. We then put the neem meal into the soil when we recently planted the fall greens. Experimentation shows enormous promise-- I just wish we could grow the neem ourselves but that requires zone 10.

I'm using this to make a watering 'tea' to overwinter my pepper plants and so far not a sign of any gnats! It does smell a bit off to me but it isn't terrible. Just follow the advice of others here and on YT and it works. Last year, all of the yellow sticky traps were collecting gnats but not this year. Very happy with it so far despite the off smell of the tea. Just do not let the solids sit on top of soil or it will begin to get fuzzy. Just to scrape them off if you do and replace with a bit of fresh sterilized dry soil then count down the days until next spring!

I saw a gardener on YouTube recommend making an infusion of 3Tbsp/gal of water and letting it steep for 3 hours to kill an infestation of fungus gnats in houseplants. I took my plants outside, shook as much of the old soil out of the roots as I could then I repotted my plants with fresh potting soil. I watered them with the neem water and put a sticky trap in each. So far no more infestation but I’ll continue to water with the neem water for the next few weeks. Highly recommend this product and strategy.

it didn't work against gnats, which was the reason i purchased it. everyone said it would work against gnats. I had to set my mini garden outside to get rid of them (and the fly catchers i hung helped as well). as a natural fertilizer, no clue if it's helpful. So, to be fair, I'm giving this review 3 stars in case it really does work as a fertilizer. The sun is so horrific these days, and my veggies did not do that well, I can't determine if this product helped fertilize or not. I have a new plan that I hope works against the fire ball in the sky.

It's no secret that there are natural molds in this product, which is why this product is so effective. YES, it killed the fungus gnats, almost immediately. My mistake, however, was using it as a top soil / top dresser. It looks pretty! But, after the first watering, the product turns solid, cakes together, and mold spawns. My understanding is that this mold is not harmful, but it is very unsightly, forming large white barriers around the plant. So, DO NOT USE AS TOP SOIL. Mix in with regular potting soil. THE SMELL. If you do NOT mix it in with regular soil, the smell will overwhelm your house and send guests running out the door. I was able to remove the most moldy and exposed portions by breaking up the remaining neem, and mixing it in with soil. We're still gnat free, and the smell has gone away. BUYER BEWARE... know what you're purchasing.
