Spider mites/aphids control
#1

I have been using when rooting my cuttings in doors.
At one time I did get spider mites pretty bad, but this helped.
I also used it outside since every year aphids would be all over my grape vines.
It's an option.

@ktrain . Very interesting organic solution to Pest Control Kevin. I went looking for the active ingredient figuring it had to be spinosad, or pyrethoid based. Couldn't have been more wrong it's simply potassium salt of fatty acids mixed with a simple soap pretty much indistinguishable from hand soap. A completely simple. and elegant 100% organic solution that works. I will definitely try this in rotation for pest prevention next year. Plus it's a total, and easy DIY formula that can be mixed up in a jiffy. Great suggestion.

Let's see if I could make a wish list testing testing

Yep why buy it, just mix it up at home.
