I have a couple plants that I use a treatment on (Neem oil, systemic insecticide etc) Is there a way to set up a schedule when you need to treat again?

on planta, i don't think so. but if you're dealing with an infestation, treating daily is a pretty safe bet. if you're not dealing with anything, i'd say every three months or so

Being able to set up a schedule for treatment has been asked for many times. The answer is always that it’s on the list to be done. I add the schedule to my phone.

I second Phil’s idea on scheduling it on a calendar or reminder app on the phone. I don’t use the premium version of the app that offers a repotting update option, so I add when I last repotted the plant into a pinned note for the plant I repotted, then set a reminder in a few months on my calendar app to see if it needs repotting. You could add the date you want to treat it again next in the notes and in a calendar app.
