In the Netherlands we never have a shortage of nettles and this is an excellent pesticide against aphids and white fly. Get some nettles, place them in a bucket with water and let it rot. Add green soap, mix and once filtered you can spray it to plants affected. Green soap (like my mother used) has been hard to come by so I'm going to use chestnuts because that is what my great-grand-parents used to wash clothes .
I love your videos. You are a good speaker and teacher. You are not one of those men who just like to hear themselves talk. That is very rare. You are unique :)
I am here about my aphid problem. Thanks for that recipe. Neem oil (no matter what small dosage I use) really hurts my indoor chilli plants, so I need another solution.
When I was just thinking there should be some spices or herbs that can repel insects, this video came up in the right time! Thank you so much to provide us with all these wonderful natural solutions!
Wow, this information is gold. I've been fighting these weird spittle bugs that attacked and killed a pine bush. Then they took over my black eyed susans. And of course, those are next to a bunch of perennial herbs, that I'm worried r going to get inflected next. As soon as my black-eyed susans start popping, I'm going to try this. Thank u.
Hello Ntate,thanks with your detail and simplified video teachings,personally I appreciate it. I read a little on 100 herbs,they did make mention of garlic and apricot tree. You have already answer me with Garlic gloves in this tutorial and thanks again. All I want to know on Apricot is whether I use leaves or I use raw apricots,or I can use both of them. In my area we have little of 100 herbs mentioned in the book,but Cayern powder I can buy,garlic gloves I can buy also,my big concern is on Apricots. Anyway I am planning to plant Cabbage for the first time in when our Summer come to an end,and when Autumn begins.
I live in Western Cape in South Africa and I am besieged by every conceivable critter imaginable! Now I suddenly have an infestation of spikey black caterpillars. Because I feed wild birds, I now have these tearing my greens to shreds! Will this awesome natural pesticide deter birds in any way? Also, am I right in understanding that we must add 1 oz of castile soap to the mixture, or more when required? I am new to your channel. I love your fertilizer recipes and have made several. Also now use potash! Definitely my favourite gardening channel!
Have you made a video on the wetting agent? I have been using Quillaja Saponaria Extract and its kind of pricey, I do love it it helps a ton when watering. I maybe thinking something else so I am hoping this is the same wetting agent that helps me water. Love your videos Brother!
How does this work with honeybees?? I'm hoping this will not affect them going to our plants, what is your insight on this? BTW, me, my wife, and our kids have watched every video of yours over the last few weeks and would love to send you some pics of us implementing some of your methods into our garden this year!
Thank you Nate a thousand times for your informative and top quality videos on vegetable gardening. You have been inspirational for me to start my first kitchen garden. RE: What is your opinion on utilizing human waste - is it safe and reasonable to do it for a home vegetable garden. 1) Introduction/Background: The location i stay is mountainous with nearly extinct layer of leaves. I have searched the forest and under the gum/pine trees but everywhere i find barren and hard soil. I nearly no access to leaves - which you have noted as an excellent source of food for the microbes, and which is a very important ingredient in most of your recipes. I am able to collect some grass clippings. I do composed regularly kitchen scraps. I am thinking to setup the liquid fertilizers you are proposing on your channel (i am a newbie on your channel and moving quickly through all your lectures). Another problem i am facing is that animal manure are very expensive here to buy, while I do not have the conditions to raise animals. 2) Question on Human Waste: I was introduced by yourself to JADAM and had a chance to scan Youngsang Cho celebrity book "Jadam Organic Farming" and there i read that he proposes Human excreta as a very valuable source for making JADAM fertilizer (in fact more valuable than animal dung). Unfortunately, the chapter on this topic is relatively short and i have major concerns/questions on this matter. I searched internet and found that most commentators/scholars in the West are very much against this method due to nasty bacterial and long-lasting chemicals in the Septic Tank waste. I would like, kindly, your opinion/view on this topic and whether there is a reasonable and safe method for a home to process there own waste for vegetable gardening. Thank you in advance.
I'm digging the explanation. I got hit hard by japanese beetles again this year. I'm letting my poke weed plants grow and fruit so I can use them to make my JHS from them. Having the garlic and cayenne is another good option too
yes I am still trying to find something that affects the Japanese beetles!!... pokeweed is supposedly a good one and I forgot about that one thanks for reminding.. but the next JNP video I make is the ultimate in my experience much stronger than anything else
I directly asked Mr. Cho about pokeweed since we have tons of it. Here is his answer: 1. Roots are the most effective. 2. It is not necessary to add another hub. 3. JHS must be used in combination with JWA to be effective. I also add JS when sickness comes. thank you I am so excited to be able to use this plant for something good instead of cursing at it :p
Love your passion for your craft. It really adds to your presentation as it is quite evident you love what you do. Thank you for the knowledge you impart.
I heard that JHS gingoberry is effective against mosquitos. Have you found if this recipe helps or do you have other natural remedies to significantly reduce mosquitos in one's yard? Thanks!
Hey Nate, absolutely devouring your videos, loving every single one. I've got access to garlic and chillies in limited quantities but I'd like to know if ginger also adds a kick to this? I've got quite a bit of ginger.
@@gardenlikeaviking awesome to hear it. Will jump on that asap. Watching all the way from Nigeria by the way. Just set-up my first batch of the calcium juice and my girls are getting a kick out of watching the egg shells floating and falling back down. I think what's gonna be the biggest thrill for me (besides watching my garden thrive) will be passing down this knowledge to my children. God bless you real good brother.
Ok. I love the idea of making a spray. I mentioned to you the garlic seems to deter the squirrels but it has to be constantly replenished which gets to be kind of a pain mincing- up raw garlic and getting it around all your plants and gardens. ( likewise you can go through gallons of powdered stuff). Garlic and marigolds sounds like a good mixture. Its not going to leave the gardens, pots and baskets smelling like your mixture? P.s. washing w Dr. Bronner' s peppermint in a cold, mountain creek..exhilarating.
Its true that the smell is bad and you have to reapply it, but it is billion times better that the poisonous chemical pesticide we get at a store. This pesticide usually has huge effect on the environment some even causing bad human health effects. So its your choice: you wanna destroy human health and environment or take extra steps?
Lol I am brewing some right now for my garden with habanero peppers and briefly pondered spraying it on my cannabis. Decided very quickly that it probably would not be great in the lungs! 😂😂🥵🥵🥵
Have you any suggestions for dealing with spotted snake millipedes? I am thinking this will help with my flea beetles but the spotted snake millipedes are hard to deal with and ruin root crops
Hi Nate. Love your channel. You've help my understanding of gardening blossom. Thank you my friend!!! Last year I had a major pest problem. Hopefully this year will be better by applying all the practices that Ive learned from you. I ran across a recipe That supposedly stops pests in their tracks. I was wondering if you've ever heard of it. I would trust your advise way more than its source. Its 2 Qts H2O, 1/4 cup Dr B tea tree oil, 1/4 cup Dr B peppermint oil, 1 Tbs hydrogen peroxide, and 1 cup alcohol. Crazy?? Thanks again Nate. With your teachings, I'm feeling really good about this years outcome. But, I want to be prepared in case I get bombarded again with pests.
thank you my friend... my experience tells me never to use alcohol on the plants and definitely not that large of an amount... that solution you described is way too strong IMHO... what pests are you trying to deter with this?
@@gardenlikeaviking The biggest problem was aphids and squash beetles. Jap beetles also but they were short lived. I tried the (not your recipe) Castile soap and others. they just laughed at it. i probably wasn't diligent enough with regularity. It was my first time last year growing anything but a few cherry tomatoes and peppers on the back patio. I went a bit crazy last year (seeing whats coming) too see if I could actually grow and sustain myself,family and friends. I was exhausted last fall after the growing season. I found your channel this winter and kind of realized that, while I had some great veggies last year, the plants were probably not as healthy as I thought. Ive learned so much from you about nature and soil science that Ive been blown away. I will be companion planting and applying your holistic approach this year. i probably killed my soil last year with man made fertilizers. Never again. I already have several of your JDAM recipes cooking now. hopefully i can restore it. We had a few warm days here in Colorado ( brutal winter this year} and when I went to the forests to collect some leaf mold it was the only part of the ground that wasn't frozen. Amazing! Thanks again Nate. There are very many of us that really appreciate what you do. Scott
i just got my JADAM book today. I was wondering if these plants can be dried and reconstituted later. I have lots of hot peppers left over from last year. My friend has a lot of Jerusalem Artichoke and I was glad to see it in the list.
@@lukaszosojca6812 oriental herbal nutrients - ginger root, garlic, liquorish root, cinnamon and there's another root I can't think of at the moment. Ferment the dried roots in beer, then combine. Its a Korean natural farming techniques
I have learned much; thank you for the incredibly informative videos. I am in zone 8 and Tomato Horn Worms are a huge problem. Other than going in the garden with a black light and physically picking them off the plants, I've found nothing that works (they glow in the dark under a black light) Will this deter these camouflaged demons?
Hi Nate, This is concerning JWA. I have had a couple of failures due to getting measurements incorrect (I think) I find it difficult when you use imperial and metric measures in the same recipe. Could you choose just one system so we don't become confused and overwhelmed? Thanks you are a fountain of growing knowledge.
hello grandmaster. I want to make this solution for large areas. I don't understand the proportions because I don't speak English. As written in the book of Jadem? For 1 kg of dry product, it is boiled in 25 liters of water for 5 hours. How are your measurements?
I saw on a JADAM video that oleander will repel pests. I have lots of that growing on the side of my house so I'm going to use this method to try it out. Much cheaper than buying organic cold pressed neem oil. I might mix it with some peppers since I have too many of those and maybe some oregano and mint.
Don't put oleander on food .oleander is so poisonous that people have died just using it's wood as skewers to cook meat .the fumes from burning okeader can sicken also ..don't put on food ever .you
@@edwardhaglin2322 Yes, thanks. I looked into this a bit more after I posted and it seemed like a really bad idea. I should have edited or deleted that comment.
@@curtisholmes7305 Chris that's awesome that you did further research .for all poisons and toxins dosage is the key . Thinking out side the box is to be commended .so times ideas like that are breakthroughs .indians used beauty berry as a mosquito repellent .so maybe check that out if you live in the south .
Hello Mr. Viking. Thank you for the videos! Have you ever tried using giant (Japanese) knotweed in this manner? It is said that an ethanol extract of this weed is useful for suppressing powder mildew and botrytis and is also reported to stimulate plant growth. Regalia by Marrone Bio-Innovations uses this method. I’m wondering if it’s also effective using “your”method? When I find this weed I intend to try. You rock!
A huge thank you for your videos, they are very helpful and so comprehensible. I learnt from Jadam videos that gingko helps with stink bug infestation. But there is no gingko in my area. Will garlic and pepper do the job? I don't have other pest issues, only stink bugs
you're welcome my friend and yes this will help... also for stinkbug if you have access to Marigolds add that as well... the whole plant including flowers...
Dear Viking, Many thank for your sharing information. I have a question: Is it possible to make a combination of chilli, garlic clove and neem (leaf or seed?)? I come from Mali (Africa, sahelian zone)
I love this idea. I have scads of wild garlic in the pasture. As far as other stinky, unpalatable things available here....I'm wondering about rhubarb leaves and lemon balm? Highbush cranberries?
@@gardenlikeaviking I'm hoping that the wild garlic, lemon balm, rhubarb leaves together will prove effective as they all grow abundantly here. I'm in 5b/6a but hot peppers don't seem to do well here. Surely there's flora here that will deter those bugs!
I've been pondering over what plants would be best to make my JHS from since I don't have any of the reccomended ones. Basil is one thing that is aromatic, grows prolifically here, and doesn't ever get bothered by pests. Lemongrass is another option. I need the JHS to be safe for edible as well as smokable plants. Have you or anyone here tried these options or know anything about their efficacy and safety?
No I have not tried either option. However, my friend is having good results with the basil ferment in FLA. I.M.O. I think Lemon grass seems as if it will work well
Thank you for this recipe!!! And for the directions about spraying it directly on the soil, which is where the fungus gnats lay their eggs. Up till now I've used just biodegradable dish soap diluted in water, which was a recommendation from a friend, but it hasn't worked long term. I'm hoping this will work better. Is it OK to spray on indoor plants? Those are the ones that are infested.
yes you can spray the soil with this on houseplants... try this one first and soon I'll make a video explaining an even much more effective one for gnats
@@gardenlikeaviking Thank you! I'll give it a try. I subscribed and turned on the notifications so will look forward to your gnat remedy. Thanks again!
Sounds good. I bet it would kill pill bugs, question is, would it hurt the worms? It took me a long time to have any population of worms , but I'm inundated with rolly pollies.
So do you use the pest prevention spray with the mint & oregano only up until there is an infestation? Or can you use this solution with the cayenne & garlic as a prevention at the lowest concentration?
Hi Nate, can I use store bought organic cayenne peppers ? I do have garlic from last season . Question #2 can we use any super hot peppers from our garden or does it have to be cayenne peppers ? Thanks my friend 👍❤️🌞
I have a Gingko tree growing for 3 reasons. First as a memorial to my dog that was killed by a neighbor, secondly, they’re my favorite tree and lastly, because I saw it used as an organic pesticide in a JADAM video. Wish I could afford his books.
@@garthwunsch I need the list of plants for the JHS. My Gingko tree may have died. There are at least 100 other plants that can be used. Need to find the ones growing by me. I have over 100 - 5 gallon vegetable oil containers to make a huge batch and sell it at local farmers markets. 250 gallons of JHS and 250 gallons of JS.
Hi. Im curious. Where did you come up with your name? Vikings were farmers and city builders (Dublin, York, Reykjavik) but never connected them with gardening. 😀. I tried putting pots of mint in my bedroom to repel mosquitoes (as per online guaranteed trick) but I think our local mozzies actually like the smell. Would boiling a solution work do you know? I am going to try it but not to spray all over my room. Maybe just stand some around? Candles definitely dont work.
Hello brother ... its been a long time since i want to try jms...and i like your way of making this... the last time i was out in the forrest for a walk and remembered to collect the black gold from the base of tree...i found an huge old tree but unfortunately this huge godess was dead since a while ...and that make me ask this question... does the tree has to be alive to take inocculation material.. i mean i could see the roots from bottom i could take it from the roots or from the huge hole it left behind....
no the tree does not have to be alive... gather from many different places a handful of each... check out this video for more detail ua-cam.com/video/H4LBFn-4Ut8/v-deo.html
I believe the JADAM JHS recipe mentions something about being able to add some type of alcohol to the JHS in order to store longer term. I am just curious if you have tried that and if so how you did it. It’s a bit late in the season and if I make a batch It would be nice if it lasted til next year.
Question, I was given some tobacco plants several years ago. I grew them to seed and saved them. Instead of purchasing Jerusalem Artichoke, how would you prepare tobacco leaf as pesticide?
How do you address pollinators when using this? Last year I encountered striped beetle on my pumpkin plants. I was afraid to use an insecticide on them for fear of harming natural pollinators, so I was out there trying to pick them off by hand.
will see how this solution works on spider mites with the addition of the wetting agent. looking forward to your videos on calcium and mites. have you ever made a viking drink made out of fermented whey called blond?
very interesting I had to look that up but back when I used to drink I would certainly try making that!... I'll have a video soon about a solution to mites/aphids specifically
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I'm going to need it soon. If I don't have cayenne peppers locally, should I substitute with jalapeño peppers or use cayenne pepper powder? Thanks.
i've shared this vid and the Supercharge Your Soil and Body with Lactic Acid Bacteria Serum vid in telegram homesteading and gardening chats. you should hopefully see an increase in subscribers this weekend.
In the Netherlands we never have a shortage of nettles and this is an excellent pesticide against aphids and white fly.
Get some nettles, place them in a bucket with water and let it rot. Add green soap, mix and once filtered you can spray it to plants affected.
Green soap (like my mother used) has been hard to come by so I'm going to use chestnuts because that is what my great-grand-parents used to wash clothes .
I suggest making a batch of JWA (JADAM wetting agent) and using that, it's the most neutral kind of garden soap.
I love your videos. You are a good speaker and teacher. You are not one of those men who just like to hear themselves talk. That is very rare. You are unique :)
JADAM is the reason people are using/talking about it. I’d give him his credit.
I am using the solution
My reccipe Garlic, Arugula Seed or Rocket Seed ,green chilli
It is effective for aphids .thrips and worms

You put poison Ivey on food that's how bad a idea of oleander on food .super poison bad idea Darwin award bad
@@edwardhaglin2322 Yes, thanks. I looked into this a bit more after I posted and it seemed like a really bad idea. I should have edited or deleted that comment.
@@curtisholmes7305 Chris that's awesome that you did further research .for all poisons and toxins dosage is the key . Thinking out side the box is to be commended .so times ideas like that are breakthroughs .indians used beauty berry as a mosquito repellent .so maybe check that out if you live in the south .
@@edwardhaglin2322 wouldn't the toxin eventually decompose and/or get washed away after a few days not reapplying?
Hello Mr. Viking. Thank you for the videos! Have you ever tried using giant (Japanese) knotweed in this manner? It is said that an ethanol extract of this weed is useful for suppressing powder mildew and botrytis and is also reported to stimulate plant growth. Regalia by Marrone Bio-Innovations uses this method. I’m wondering if it’s also effective using “your”method? When I find this weed I intend to try. You rock!
Do you also dillute with water
Do you think adding marigolds would improve the effectiveness?? Thanks, love your channel.
I thought of marigold too as it grows like weed here.
A huge thank you for your videos, they are very helpful and so comprehensible. I learnt from Jadam videos that gingko helps with stink bug infestation. But there is no gingko in my area. Will garlic and pepper do the job? I don't have other pest issues, only stink bugs
you're welcome my friend and yes this will help... also for stinkbug if you have access to Marigolds add that as well... the whole plant including flowers...
@@gardenlikeaviking Thank you again. I've got marigolds, so I can easily add them too. Hope it will save my tomatoes and beans this year 🙂
You can also do this with tomato leaves.
Dear Viking, Many thank for your sharing information.
I have a question: Is it possible to make a combination of chilli, garlic clove and neem (leaf or seed?)?
I come from Mali (Africa, sahelian zone)
I love this idea. I have scads of wild garlic in the pasture. As far as other stinky, unpalatable things available here....I'm wondering about rhubarb leaves and lemon balm? Highbush cranberries?
lemon balm will help yes but its not as potent as this mixture... but try and see what works best for you then let me know!
@@gardenlikeaviking I'm hoping that the wild garlic, lemon balm, rhubarb leaves together will prove effective as they all grow abundantly here. I'm in 5b/6a but hot peppers don't seem to do well here. Surely there's flora here that will deter those bugs!
I've been pondering over what plants would be best to make my JHS from since I don't have any of the reccomended ones. Basil is one thing that is aromatic, grows prolifically here, and doesn't ever get bothered by pests. Lemongrass is another option. I need the JHS to be safe for edible as well as smokable plants. Have you or anyone here tried these options or know anything about their efficacy and safety?
No I have not tried either option. However, my friend is having good results with the basil ferment in FLA. I.M.O. I think Lemon grass seems as if it will work well
@@littlenugs9942 pregunta el fermento de albahaca para que sirve
Thank you for this recipe!!! And for the directions about spraying it directly on the soil, which is where the fungus gnats lay their eggs. Up till now I've used just biodegradable dish soap diluted in water, which was a recommendation from a friend, but it hasn't worked long term. I'm hoping this will work better. Is it OK to spray on indoor plants? Those are the ones that are infested.
yes you can spray the soil with this on houseplants... try this one first and soon I'll make a video explaining an even much more effective one for gnats
@@gardenlikeaviking Thank you! I'll give it a try. I subscribed and turned on the notifications so will look forward to your gnat remedy. Thanks again!
Sounds good. I bet it would kill pill bugs, question is, would it hurt the worms? It took me a long time to have any population of worms , but I'm inundated with rolly pollies.
I would like to try this in a Instant Pot.
I was just thinking. the same thing. Something like 20-30 min?
Thanks!
thank you for your kind support Elena my friend!!
So do you use the pest prevention spray with the mint & oregano only up until there is an infestation? Or can you use this solution with the cayenne & garlic as a prevention at the lowest concentration?
Hi Nate, can I use store bought organic cayenne peppers ? I do have garlic from last season . Question #2 can we use any super hot peppers from our garden or does it have to be cayenne peppers ? Thanks my friend 👍❤️🌞
You can use yucca as a wetting agent, I use ones growing down the street
yes I've used that before in its powdered form but how do you use it whole??
I have a Gingko tree growing for 3 reasons. First as a memorial to my dog that was killed by a neighbor, secondly, they’re my favorite tree and lastly, because I saw it used as an organic pesticide in a JADAM video. Wish I could afford his books.
You don’t really need his books… You’ve got this channel!
What's your email address?
@@elohiymsfruitfulbull skashoonatgmail
Sorry it took so long to reply, I just noticed your message today
@@garthwunsch I need the list of plants for the JHS. My Gingko tree may have died. There are at least 100 other plants that can be used. Need to find the ones growing by me. I have over 100 - 5 gallon vegetable oil containers to make a huge batch and sell it at local farmers markets. 250 gallons of JHS and 250 gallons of JS.
I have a ginko tree. Are the spring leaves best to use as a pesticide?
Can you do it in sous vide on low heat to preserve all the goodies inthere?
Hi. Im curious. Where did you come up with your name? Vikings were farmers and city builders (Dublin, York, Reykjavik) but never connected them with gardening. 😀.
I tried putting pots of mint in my bedroom to repel mosquitoes (as per online guaranteed trick) but I think our local mozzies actually like the smell.
Would boiling a solution work do you know? I am going to try it but not to spray all over my room. Maybe just stand some around? Candles definitely dont work.
Will this work prior to blossoming, and after, to control coddling moths on my fruit trees?
I wonder if potatoes and tomato foliage would make for an effective spray.
Any solutions for stink bugs? They are decimating everything in my garden. Greetings my friend
Hello brother ... its been a long time since i want to try jms...and i like your way of making this... the last time i was out in the forrest for a walk and remembered to collect the black gold from the base of tree...i found an huge old tree but unfortunately this huge godess was dead since a while ...and that make me ask this question... does the tree has to be alive to take inocculation material.. i mean i could see the roots from bottom i could take it from the roots or from the huge hole it left behind....
no the tree does not have to be alive... gather from many different places a handful of each... check out this video for more detail ua-cam.com/video/H4LBFn-4Ut8/v-deo.html
Hi,
Can i use this solution for my strawberry plants
Dont affect the flowers ?
I have big problems with thrips
Вместо мыло можно использовать золу с подсолнечным маслом,как вариант зелёного мыла?
Can you also use vinegar and dish soap? Does crushed egg shells work? Would like to have your ideas on this
trying to understand, This hot pepper / garlic mix just repels not kills bugs? Is the hotter the pepper the better?
💯🤟
I believe the JADAM JHS recipe mentions something about being able to add some type of alcohol to the JHS in order to store longer term. I am just curious if you have tried that and if so how you did it. It’s a bit late in the season and if I make a batch It would be nice if it lasted til next year.
you have to add 15% ethanol, for 1L JHS you add 150ml ethanol
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Question, I was given some tobacco plants several years ago. I grew them to seed and saved them. Instead of purchasing Jerusalem Artichoke, how would you prepare tobacco leaf as pesticide?
How do you address pollinators when using this? Last year I encountered striped beetle on my pumpkin plants. I was afraid to use an insecticide on them for fear of harming natural pollinators, so I was out there trying to pick them off by hand.
Does JADAM method work in short growing season, my growing season in Canada is 3months and maybe a little bit more but is already Fall?
will see how this solution works on spider mites with the addition of the wetting agent. looking forward to your videos on calcium and mites. have you ever made a viking drink made out of fermented whey called blond?
sorry is spelled blaand not blond
very interesting I had to look that up but back when I used to drink I would certainly try making that!... I'll have a video soon about a solution to mites/aphids specifically
From my personal experience garlic spray isn't effective qgainst spider mites
Can we use Conocorpus tree leaves, where birds avoid nesting, take shelter and sitting on the branches and even bats also avoid these trees.
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I'm going to need it soon. If I don't have cayenne peppers locally, should I substitute with jalapeño peppers or use cayenne pepper powder? Thanks.
yes any spicy pepper will work... powder also works just be sure to filter it nicely so it doesn't clog the spray emitters...
@@gardenlikeaviking Thank you for responding. I appreciate it.
Would this work for flea and ticks?
Would you be able to use habaneros instead of cayenne peppers?
I planted the first batch of jerusalem artichokes
I’m about to plant my first batch of Jerusalem artichoke this weekend.
Hii love your videos, can I use store bought garlic I don't have any home bought garlic
yes store bought will work
@@gardenlikeaviking okk thAnks very much
