Guys the dishwasher soap is not bad for you, you wash dishes with it everyday. The actual bug sprays are dangerous (poisonous). So essentially it is free of harmful chemicals.
My brother I’m learning SO much SO fast from your videos and just wanted to say God bless you and thank you for thinking about the rest of us who are learning how to keep our plants healthy. You’re a blessing!❤️
@@aarondaniele4141 honestly I didn’t use this specific remedy but I used another one from his page with milk and cinnamon and it helped a lot. I mainly used it when the plants were still small
My dad does this all the time but minus the oil. Make sure you do it when the sun is going down though because the mixture with sun added can harm the plants.
Very important to know this. Thanks for pointing this out. From me and everyone else who saw your comment, thanks for sharing! I hope you’re doing great!
I used fucking olive oil it killed everything in my god damn garden. I’m actually so pissed. EDIT: ITS MY FAULT I MESSED UP THE MEASUREMENTS I DID HALF AND HALF…
@@Magpie.Pixie. you take garlic cloves and put in water for like a week and it will make the plants taste nasty to bugs. Put the water in a spritz bottle and spray over your plants.
You can also use peroxide mixed in the water to get rid of fungus gnats. Fungus gnats burrow down 3 to 4 inches from the top of ur soil when it kept moist. It is beat to water from the bottom to prevent and get rid of those peaky things. I used this method in my 5 gallon bucket garden. Works amazing.
I just recented found out what aphids were and I remember how my grandpa was complaining about them and he called them the “lil white thangs outside” 😂 I love my grandpa
I just had lil white fuzzy bugs all over my plants messing them up .looked it up they actually called mealy bugs . I took the hose out and started destroying them with the nozzle.. lol... Aphids are a green color I think .
The neighbors: he's at it again... Him: by himself outside looking into the camera excitedly talking a mile a minute, flailing his arms, and teaching the world the basics of repurposing life.
You helped my plants thank you !!! 🎉 Most of the aphids are falling off so ive just sprayed them so il lwait a week if they die or not and if they dont thanks ! im going to use it more often ! ❤
This guy is my favorite on RU-vid. Who else gets tired of dancing, negative, killing, fighting ,BS videos. Great to hear about positive stuff such as this.
Day 1: makes this solution because whiteflies have infested my plants Day 2: sprays it in the morning (The moment I sprayed it, the whiteflies started coming off like crazy so I had to get some protection gear 😃 Day 3(today morning): doesn't expect a lot of difference and sprays it but then gets SHOCKED because the whiteflies have already reduced by something like 95% Day 4(tomorrow morning): sprays it again in the morning and hopes that all whiteflies disappear by day 5 TYSM for the tutorial bro!!!!
Three questions: 1) can this be used as a preventative or only if your plants are actually infected 2) how often do you use it and 3) do you rinse the leaves right after or do you just leave it on? Thanks a lot
@@Jollofmuncher2000 me planting green peas on small container, now it got mould.. lol.. later in future going to buy land for farming, fish pond, poultry..
Is the soap not bad for leaves? I read that the soap removes a special coat on bugs and causes them to dehydrate. But it can do the same to plant leaves.
What about Dr Bonners soap and some tea tree oil and or peppermint. I think his recipe would work for outside and inside plants but is rather do a more natural soap or YL dish soap.
I use neem oil for bugs. May smell funky but I think it helps Sadly I don’t get home at evening time I get home at 10pm Sometimes I garden at night because I won’t get up in the am.
Okay so he is right. Best would be natural soap though. And it's not a repellent. So don't put it unnecessarily on plants without pests. And it's very important to wash the spray away after a day or two. If left on longer it can close the pores of the leaves and well, couse some damage.
Olive oil can hurt your plants. Perhaps in small, doses you might, might get away with it however it is a oil and oil can cause problems with functions that leaves need to do Photosynthesis and in some plants if absorbed can act as an actual systemic poision.
What homemade remedies are good for bed bugs 🐜 that will never go away so hard! I’m a nurse in poor communities and d I need to help them without chemicals thanks ❤
@@DerfOrNuffin we will not even use this everyday it's only we can spray leaves 2 times per month so buy chemicals it's enough and better than these fakes
This actually killed my flowers and vegetables and they rotted away. It leaves a glossy affect on the leaves and that causes the leaves to rot with sun and water
Olive oil, especially in the dose recommended here will kill plants. It is an oil and can block photosynthesis and depending on the plant actually behave like a systemic posion.
Awesome advice, great vibes & upbeat with postive plant & environmentally friendly. Will get started with this asap cuz the bugs are driving me crazy!! Only thing I'll personally change is dishsoap to Garlic. Just 1 thing..maybe slow the video movements a bit as it's quite distracting from taking on the information. Thanx heaps for the tip 😁
No such thing as chemical free. Being a chemical engineer, this grinds my gears. My college professors would fail you and rightfully so. Water is chemical. By definition
😅 I had tried these ingredients: garlic, onions 🧅 and hot peppers 🌶 flakes. It works wonderfully okra plants I would it work on collard greens bug 🐛? Thanks you sharing your knowledge.
How often should this be sprayed, and also does it work more for prevention or treatment? -update I just sprayed my plants and these little white fuzzy fly things all stopped moving 🤷🏼♀️ I also added a little lemon squeeze to mine. Not sure if that’s good or bad for the plant but I figured acidity wouldn’t be their friend.. someone plz respond
