Serious question, did neem oil actually do anything for your balcony peppers or am I wasting $9
I grabbed a bottle of neem oil at the garden center on Sunset in Echo Park back in April because the guy swore it would handle the aphids on my jalapenos. I mixed it at the label dose and sprayed every 7 days for about 5 weeks, and honestly my plants looked worse, some leaves got a greasy film and the aphids just moved to the new growth. So I grabbed ladybugs from the nursery down the street instead, 1,500 of them for $12, and the aphids were gone in 9 days. Has anyone gotten neem to work on a hot balcony, or should I give up on the spray and just buy bugs?
