My favorite low cost IPM schedule is Neem/silica one week, Southern Ag Garden Friendly Fungicide next week, Aspirin foliar week after, then repeat up until buds form. I hate spending cash on bottles too but I just refuse to be without either neem or the Southern Ag bacillus amyloliquefaciens formula (both foliar and root drench for that one.) They've each saved my crop at one time or another. Good luck OP, I hope your plants make it!

What sort of ridiculous bullshit is this?

Yeah, I couldn't figure that one out either.
Just a joke because he said he was growing high grade sativas. It's that kind of bullshit if that meets your approval.

Is a high grade plant like a high grade hooker, does it have stilettos.
High-grade hookers don't wear stilettos, they are like ninja, they blend in. The one's I've known also are up on all world affairs and business news so they can have intelligent conversations for a few minutes.
I've seen plenty of threads about neem burning plants, but have never been able to do it myself in 20 years. Used to just pour some (maybe 2 teaspoons) into a squirt bottle and never had problems other than the wife bitching about the smell. Since moved onto azamax.

How big was the squeezy bottle.
Back to hookers, you obviously move in better circles than me Shirley.

I reckon we all should follow this guy, haven't laughed so much since Calmag I mean cowbell.
Well yeah, after a few minutes busy doing other things than talking the stock market, they could carry on all night talking about politics if you wished though.

Yeah, perhaps if you ingest stupid pills and dumb capsules every morning.
I did neem once long ago. Tested it on one plant by directions. It started to suffocate. Use less for now on or use the concentrate. I forget the name. azamax or something. I have that too somewhere, I dont get bugs like I use to when I 1st brought the soil in.

I had some experience with Neem oil, first thing to know oils does not mix with water.
You should use neem oil emulsion, otherwise its oil + water that you are spraying.
Putting soap may help neem oil to break a bit but I would not spray soap on my plants.
Best, to use is some glycerin + alcohol to emulsify then mix with water.
I experimented usage on some basic plants never need to use on cannabis but I would not hesitated to do so if I need.
Just use even less amount of oil then generally recommended and apply many times you need daily on nights.
On my first use I literally washed my mints to get rid of green aphids. They were all white and dead the next day. How ever mint has died almost same way, mint leaves got rotten.
Next time, I used the same formula, but just sprayed a little. Aphids were quite alive next day like the plant but that changed over a week usage of light spray...
If you want to use something easier you can use DE (diatomaceous earth) its almost impossible to hurt plants with it. But bugs like spring tails can not stand it.
I would wash the plant by spraying some PH ed warm water and would cut the bad parts of the leaves while waiting them to recover back. Cutting leaves generraly give less stress to plant rater picking them completely. Just focus on the new growth they will be fine.
