hello everyone and welcome to another
episode of
California Gardening 
Today we're gonna see how
to use Neem Oil to control pests
on corn silks as well as some other
vegetables
so it's a nice organic way to control
pests
and insects in your garden in your vegetable garden, flower garden any where you'd
like it
So hope you enjoy this video
So all you need is some Neem oil
concentrate that you can find at any
home improvement stores or your local garden store and you'd also need
A gallon sprayer to mix water as well as the
Neem Oil that you can spray on your plants
so when you start spraying the oil, make sure you spray
and get all the the (corn) silk area wet
the corn silks are very susceptible to pests
of all sorts, so make sure you spray it well so that it just starts dripping
around the leaves as well that should
give you a nice
even layer of Neem around your plants
and make sure you get the entire plan wet
just look for all the corn silks that have formed
the small ones, the big ones and you'll  also
notice that while you're spraying
everything that drips around the plant
is gonna keep the
the edges as well as the the insides of the plant very
free from pests.
And take your time in spraying
properly you don't want to hurry up in this  Step.
Make sure you get the entire
plant wet
as well as I even try to spray the
stems and the roots a little bit so
just make sure you go or the entire
plants and spray it pretty well
you know once again Neem is a really
good organically to control pests
its I think one of the most amazing inventions ever
so for me
Neem works most of the time - it works really well
but if you'll feel you need 
something else in addition
I would suggest Spray with Neem Oil for about
once in about 15 days and if you still feel you need some more
if you still see insects, you can use another
organic
pesticide called Spino-sad
which I will probably cover in another video
you can also use Neem Oil to spray all
your other veggies
I'm spraying eggplants here. 
I planted these 3 eggplants in 1 whiskey barrel
And it's great to grow them in whiskey barrels. 
Eggplants grow really well
You can plant up to three
and the Neem Oil does a good job of keeping
all the critters away.
So hope you enjoyed this video 
and I'll see you next time!
