30Aug2020: Got a bunch of neem leaves, weight approx 330g. Soaked in 12 litres water. Duration of soak... no idea at this moment. I will go thru all the Youtube instructions I can find, and then average out the time.
Will test if the resulting liquid helps deter pests.
31Aug2020: Selamat Hari Merdeka! Happy Independence Day! I was pleasantly surprised... day 2... nothing visibly bubbling like fruit fermentation, but heaps of bubbles on the surface! That's just neem leaves and water! There must be something special to this plant.
2Sep2020: Less bubbles. Something that looks like a thin layer of oil on top. I guess it's ready to use.
Summary of day 0 to 6
6 Sep 2020: I had a separate bottle of water with garlic and chili scraps that I was using as a spray. It wasnt really working. So chucked it all into the neem bucket. It will be a lot easier this way anyways. Anytime I hear about a plant that deters pests, I will add some of it to the brew. Never know I might stumble onto an all natural super bug deterrent!
