Any essential oil will work in combination with other things.

Plants from the Mint Family do well... Like Rosemary...

Here is some info on the two Cali talks about:

Cinnamaldehyde, C9H8O
Cinnamaldehyde, or 3-phenylprop-2-enal to use its IUPAC name, is an oily yellow liquid at room temperature with a boiling point of 246 °C. Cinnamaldehyde can be made synthetically but is more commonly obtained from the steam distillation of the oil of cinnamon bark which is a much more efficient process. It is mainly used as a flavouring agent or as a scent for candles. It is non-toxic but can irritate skin if in contact for too long. As with many components of essential oils cinnamaldehyde displays antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties. It is also reported to be a good pesticide. These properties support the medicinal and soothing properties of cinnamon bark. A minor component of cinnamon oil is eugenol (shown below). This compound makes up about 10% of the oil and displays antiseptic and analgesic properties which may also contribute to cinnamon's soothing effect.

The Into to a scholarly article, "Eucalyptus essential oil as a natural pesticide"

Eucalyptus (family Myrtaceae), an Australian native, represented by around 700 species is a genus of tall, evergreen and magnificent trees cultivated world over for its oil, gum, pulp, timber, medicine and aesthetic value. Among the various wood and non-wood products, essential oil found in its foliage is the most important one and finds extensive use in food, perfumery and pharmaceutical industry. In addition, the oil possesses a wide spectrum of biological activity including anti-microbial, fungicidal, insecticidal/insect repellent, herbicidal, acaricidal and nematicidal. The present paper discusses this environmentally benign pest control using eucalyptus oils against bacteria, fungi, insects, nematodes, weeds and mites. The use of eucalyptus oil as a natural pesticide is of immense significance in view of the environmental and toxicological implications of the indiscriminate use of synthetic pesticides and overcoming/reducing the problem of increasing pest resistance.

I sometimes use essential oils with my neem or with my soap sprays.... plus they smell Great!

Caliente has got it down though with the Hot Misting... seems pretty cool!

your outdoor pics make it look like you might live in an area that is kind of "farmy"

have you had any luck finding kelp in bulk anywhere?

if i hear "horses don't eat kelp but there is kelp in this bag of Purina horse food. do you want that?" one more time i'm gonna scream and /or choke a co-op employee

hahaha I just got recommended a product called SOURCE

www.4source.com cause it has kelp in it... is that good enough?! lol

I live near Caliente and there is ZERO kelp out here.

I'm asking for a special order of some Thorvin for horses.... but we will see the price quote is.

 

[coloradcannabis]

Great grow can't wait to see the final poundage!

 

[MileHighGuy]

Talk to your Co-op about Soilmender products.... they usually carry the Yum Yum mix.

I was able to get 40lbs of Kelp Meal for $85.00

I called soilmender and it is OMRI certified also Ascophyllum nodosum
