Going Organic

Everything I do in growing capsicum is organic, except 1 thing; insecticide (I've only used it 3 times in 6 months)!
That's about to change: because today I found "Neem" oil (actually my friend Colin found it); you've probably heard of it before.
Neem oil is an extract of the seeds of the neem tree. These trees grow from India to Vietnam and thankfully here in Thailand as well. In Thai it is called Sadao and the oil is "oui Sadao". A 150ml bottle is ฿50.
I have a recipe (which I need to find) which I will post here asap. I can say it involves garlic, ginger, neem oil, and one or two other ingredients. I seem to remember there is a fermentation process as well.
Recipe coming soon. Cheers.
