On my site, I try to carry out safe treatments from pests. I want to share recipes for making mustard and tobacco soap at home.
WHERE MUSTARD AND TOBACCO SOAP IS USED
Everything can be treated with such soap: garden trees, shrubs, flowers, vegetables. The product is safe for humans, soil and plants, effective against pests. I spray plantings from aphids, thrips, scale insects, spider mites. The solution perfectly protects against diseases such as late blight, powdery mildew and brown spot.
APPLICATION
How to use this concentrate? We take 1 tbsp. l. soap per 1 liter of water and carefully process not only the upper, but also the lower leaves. Flowers - before and during the budding stage, vegetables - 3-5 days before harvest.
By the way
Prepared solutions are well stored in any containers with closed lids.
Mustard soap can be used as an adhesive. I mix it with Fitoverm. Tobacco soap works well for codling moth caterpillars while they are still in the larval stage. I spray the trees two weeks before flowering, wetting the branches and bark abundantly.
PREPARING TOBACCO AND MUSTARD SOAP WITH YOUR HANDS
Mustard soap: pour 100 g of dry mustard powder with warm water, bring to a paste-like state, grate 100 g of laundry soap, add water, let it brew, boil a little, cool and mix with our mustard paste. For longer storage, add citric acid (50 g): it will act as a preservative. I also add a teaspoon of fir oil, because soap will not only destroy pests, but also heal plants.
Tobacco soap: Pour 100 g of tobacco dust with a glass of water, stir well, let it brew for a couple of hours, strain and boil for about ten minutes. Allow to cool and add 100 g of liquid laundry soap.
Everything is perfectly stored in any containers with tightly closed lids. When preparing solutions, it is advisable to use gloves and a mask.
