The tiniest flake of the most unscented, natural soap you can buy cheaply nearly anywhere will do the trick just as well as any of those commercial rip-off products, and there just *isn't* anything, and in enough quantity to harm your plants. thumbsup.gif

yeah, natural soap from a supermarket. about 50p for many years supply. I use a wetting agent, but thats because i'm rich as fuck..... actually, i tried soap, seemed to workj fine but since i was ordering some stuff from a hydro shop i got some wetting agent. no difference in effect mate. and you can wash your armpits too, bonus!!!! pinch.gif

Robert Plant
wetting agents lower the surface tension of a liquid, allowing the liquid to coat your leaves rather than just beading off when the spray hits the surface wink.gif
