Inka’s Garden Leaf-Care Spray
Gentle spray with neem oil, castile soap and baking soda
Inka’s Garden Leaf-Care Spray is a simple mixture designed for occasional care of ornamental plant leaves.
Neem oil gives the formula its botanical character, castile soap helps disperse the oil through the water, while a small amount of baking soda completes the basic garden-care blend.
Ingredients for 5 litres
- 5 L water or rainwater
- 10 g liquid castile soap
- 5 g neem oil
- 5 g baking soda
Method
Dissolve the baking soda in a small amount of the water.
Separately combine the neem oil and castile soap.
Mix both phases together and add the remaining water.
Shake well before use.
Use
Spray in the evening once plants are no longer exposed to strong direct sunlight.
Always test on a few leaves first and wait 24–48 hours.
Avoid very young, sensitive or damaged foliage and do not spray flowers.
This spray is not a registered plant-protection product and is not intended to control plant diseases or pests.
