can I spray neem oil on my flowering tomato plants and pepper plants which have some peppers started. also my eggplant is turning yellow . too much fertilizer? I’ve been using Epson salt on my pepper plants.all of my pepper plants had scabs on them right from the garden center.i was hoping they wold have gotten better by now.

Yes, you can spray Neem oil on you plants while they are in flower. Spraying at sunset is best so that pollinators won’t be harmed by the spray.

 

The yellowing of the eggplant could be due to a lack of nitrogen so a light, ½ strength feeding of a good soluble food like Jack’s All Purpose Plant Food or Blossom Booster would help. It could also be due to mites which the Neem Oil Spray can control.  The scabbing on the peppers may be a fungal disease which the Neem Oil can also control.  I’d suspend any more Epsom salt applications and feedings should be light.
