Azamax 4 Ounce

Here are my observations from using this product for my indoor chili plants which suddenly got a bad infestation of thrips.1. Will make your plants shed their leaves if you apply this product in the upper limit of the recommended concentrations and / or in daylight / grow light.2. Works well as a soil drench more than it works when directly applied to leaves. It takes 2-3 days to show results and I think it works better when infused slowly into the soil medium along with application to the leaves.

Works great for thrips and fungus gnats... imho the best way to use this is 2.5 tablespoons per gallon and spray the top of your soil until it is very wet.... no bugs survive and doesn't do anythingto your plants... did the soil drench but that just stressed my plants.. on watering days water first then spray... with this method a gallon will last a month.. does smell a little.. for foliar i use a different product like spinosad or even h202 just to get em off the leaves and into the soil where they die... at the 2.5 tbsp per gallon, all insects (that I've encountered) die on contact when being sprayed

I have dealt with both fungus gnats and spider mites of a couple brands including the "Borg". Considering this is around fifty dollars for a 16 oz bottle, using this as a drench just doesn't seem to do much for the fungus gnats. I have mixed drenches at all 3 concentrations on the label with underwhelming results. It seems to me that letting the soil really dry well between waterings is the best cure/control for the gnats. As far as spider mites are concerned using regular 'ol (still "organic") Neem Oil physically sprayed to the leaf bottoms does the trick for FAR less money. In my opinion, this absolutely is NOT a cost effective fix for mites and I am less than impressed with fungus gnat control.

Azamax works ! I use it mainly for caterpillars for my outdoor but I use it both indoor and outdoor as a preventative and I always remain pest free. Just make sure your plant has it in its system early before bloom since that is when the moths come to lay thier caterpillars on your sweet plant that is beginning to bud. Works great foliar and soil drench.

It would be helpful to know in advance that this stuff does not kill adult spider mites or the eggs they profusely lay, it only inhibits growth of the younger larval stage mites. This stuff is way overpriced for what little good it does to an already out of control infestation. The only way this stuff is beneficial is if you use it in conjunction with neem oil to prevent an infestation, but even then it's very high priced for the concentration you have to mix.....I mean the 4 ounce bottle is good for what, 5-10 gallons at the concentration that it's even helpful at. And beware that this will wilt your plants if you use it as a root drench.
