It says for fungicide every 7-14 days depending how bad would be 2Tbsp to 1 gallon. For insecticide/miticide depending on infestation 2-4 Tbsp to 1 gallon. I used a little sprayer that's only 1 liter so I did a half teaspoon or so.
Is this a good idea to add to the soil?
You are using the Dr Earth soil in a bag, right?
You might want to add a handful of earthworm castings after they start to develop flowers, but otherwise I don't think the Dr. Earth soil will need more worm castings. unless you want to reuse the soil after harvest.

This sounds like the same ratio I would use for pure neem oil, so this is a good buy!
With pure neem oil, you can't save the mix to reuse another day, so I suggest you mix up only what you will use in one application- like you did

and not together I used the home grown in the soil when I potted them and I added a little of the total advantage the other day and mixed in w topsoil a little. . I'm just using organic soil from home depot with out fertilizer so ive been adding.. I have used this.liquid fish a couple times as either a folia r spray and additional to the fertilizer every so often and at half the strength.
Off that's the case, a nice top dressing of earthworm castings would be good.
Be mindful after though, you're not gonna want to overdo the N!!

With the organic soil it has sphagnum peat moss and some bark and I mixed in a little bit coco coir.

Worm casting will work for you and a small addition of epsom salts or dolomite lime. You need to give them solid calcium/magnesium diet. Worm castings can be also processed into compost tea that will raise immunity to pests.

Get her out of the rain and let her dry out. Remember, these things are 'weeds' they can really surprise you.

Well the girls are looking good today I swear the rain made my whole garden grow about 4 inches. I came out this morning and my tomatoes are trying to take over and I already need to repot both my girls because the roots are growing out the bottom... So now into a 5 gallon. I was wondering if it's too soon or not soon enough or if I should just let it go but I need them to start bushing out and not getting taller. Right now they kinda blend in with the rest of my garden. Can I FIM again or supercrop or LST
