Neem is good shit

So I can pretty much just spray this as often as I want with zero ramifications to my plants huh?

I've sprayed a few times this week, and not only are white-flies down to pathetic numbers now while catapillers seem to be gone completely or no longer eating my leaves anyhow, but no bugs have migrated to non-affected plants.

Reading up on it, Neem is not only used in India in skin lotions and bug spray they use the entire plant for plenty of things and even eat it for mm liver or kidney repair or something like that.

We've got an actual neem tree growing beside our house, I've been seriously considering filling my largest pot with the seeds that litter the ground (drops masses .. Heaps of em) and boiling shit out of it, then letting it cool and skimming the oil off the top.

sadly, I already have a pretty expensive bottle of neem oil I bought the other day, and that's a lot less fuss. Maybe when the bottle runs out :/

I like neem too but move away from it in flowering. Just don't like the smell!

I hear you need to keep it out of your soil if your going organic.

It is organically derived, but not necessarily good for the micro-organisms in your soil. If I want to spray it heavy I just do my best not to saturate my dirt with it. You can even put something over your soil to catch drips if you have a strong organic grow going and don't want to throw your soil out of balance. Exactly how bad it is for your organic soil, I do not know.
