Is it just me or does EVERYBODY use Dr. Bronner’s??

#### Jordyn antwortete am 2025-04-21

I used Dr. Natural but pretty much the same thing lol

@ Lien, its one of the few Castille soap available in liquid form in the US

### Sapphire kommentierte am 2025-04-21

Dr Bronner’s Castille soap (about 2-3 drops, a little goes a long way!) and water, shake it up, spray on my plants, clean with microfiber towel, and done! Removes pests and shines leaves

Usually Water. Constantly applying oils to the leaves isn't great for the plants as they use their leaves for transpiration.

#### Sapphire antwortete am 2025-04-23

I think you also mentioned to me that oil can cause the sun to burn the leaves. Is that correct?

#### Wolfen 🐺 antwortete am 2025-04-23

Yes, so if you do apply it. Or like an insecticide ypu apply has oil. Do it in the evening after sun starts to go down. Or turn grow lights off
