Oestrogen
This is a great plant booster & will certainly get your plants moving. To make this, put half a kilogram of dried blood or blood & bone into an old stocking, (shake the missus out of it first though) & soak this in about 20 litres of water for three days. If it is soaked any longer, the mixture will start to get a bit smelly & this is not good, particularly if the missus wants her stocking back!
After three days the mixture in the stocking can now be turfed, & you will be left with a clear liquid that is best feed to your plants in September & again in March, but not during the main flowering season (October to December). The liquid can be diluted, as it appears to work regardless of its strength.
Organic insect spray
Use 1 tablespoon of detergent, a table spoon of meths, & 1 tablespoon of cooking oil all well mixed with a pint (600 mls) of water. This makes up the base concentration of the spray, 2 tablespoons of this can now be mixed with another pint (600mls) of water & sprayed onto your plants.
I tend to only spray for organic insects, as the plastic ones don’t seem to cause too much of a problem!
