Mokusaku with Neem

We soaked Neem into mokusaku. First We shredded neem leaves and branches. Then we soaked them. After 6 month we will be able to use as insecticide. Mokusaku has ability to absorb substances of other plants. Neem has a lot of substances as medicine and so on. So Moksuaku absorb those substances very well. The 6 month is for absorbing time. And we must use mokusaku which is already settled. … We can spray this liquid. last time we sprayed for cucumber. It had aphids, white fry and some pest. We sprayed once a week for 1 month. We found that the liquid could control the aphids and white fry, even the pest. And the cucumber grew some new shoots even the cucumber was damaged by those insect and pest. … On that time we used neem oil. I wish we could good result even this liquid.

Got Neem Oil

I got neem. Near my apartment, I have a friend who manage trading post. Fortunately i have known him through a lady who is working green house company. Then He had neem oil from manila. I requested to him to bring it up here. Then this evening at last i got neem oil. This neem oil is from India, and good for human body. But not good for drinking. Anyway I want to use experiment as a insecticide, mixing with wood vinegar. Usually neem oil, even neem plant act insecticide. Actually it is not killing insect. It has substances insects to avoid. And also for antipruritic. There are just a part of neem effects. Neem has still a lot of effects. ... Then why i wanted to get this oil... I mix this oil with wood vinegar. The ratio is neem oil : mokusaku = 100mL : 10L Then we can spray as a insecticide. This ratio is this liquid : water = 1 : 200. So in this project, we are going to experiment.
