Decades ago, I partnered with two lesbian baker hippies to build a 4KW grow-op in their medical marijuana California home. This allowed us to "legally" flower several hundred plants simultaneously. We very quickly $realized$ that ladybugs alone weren't going to allow us to repay our financing debts... unfortunately not before having several months of aphid-infested, bud-zapping hell. These were expensive lessons in hippie-dom. To any indoor / outdoor farmers: NEEM oil [0], as fantastic and natural as it is... still won't be enough to run a for-profit operation. If you're just growing recreationally do whatever you want, but you can't compete with better chemistries. [0]: I cannot think of a more disgusting odor/flavor, than wikipedia.org/wiki/Neem_oil
