Insecticide "Neem ll" plus Spray N Grow?
Is it necessary to use an insecticide, such as Neem ll, with the use of Spray N Grow & Bill's Fertilizer in order to prevent any infestation on my Tomato Plants and Herbs. I just planted a beautiful container garden on my back patio and all plants, night now, look great and are doing great. But here in the south, Charlotte, NC, we do have problems with Mite and Fungus infestation on Tomato Plants, especially if it gets windy..The Spray N Grow with Bill's Fertilizer has been great but will it alone keep the insects away? I purchased a bottle of Neem ll just in case but am afraid to use it, if it is going to effect the Spray N Grow effectiveness. Any help would be appreciated....Eileen in Charlotte, NC

The Spray-N-Grow and Bill's combination make plants more disease and insect resistant. The Neem Oil is a good pesticide, but I wouldn't use it until you see a problem developing. However, there is nothing wrong with using it as a preventative. Mix it at the lowest concentration and apply every 2 - 3 weeks 3-4 days after applying Spray-N-Grow & Bill's.
By the way the Neem Oil is the best thing I've found for controlling Mealy Bugs which are very difficult to
contend with.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
