Description

ADK Nimboli Water-Soluble Neem Oil 1L is the ideal size for kitchen gardeners, home growers, and small-scale farmers who want professional-grade organic pest control without the bulk purchase commitment of larger packs. With a guaranteed minimum of 1500 PPM azadirachtin, it delivers the same potency as our 5L farm pack in a convenient, easy-to-store 1-litre bottle.

Pests Targeted

Nimboli 1L targets the full range of common garden and crop pests including aphids, whiteflies, spider mites, thrips, mealybugs, scale insects, leaf miners, and leafhoppers. It is also effective as a preventive treatment against powdery mildew, early blight, and other fungal diseases. When used as a soil drench, it suppresses root-feeding pests, fungus gnats, and harmful nematodes. See our complete guide on using neem oil for aphids.

Azadirachtin Content

Azadirachtin is the key bioactive compound in neem oil that disrupts insect hormones, prevents moulting, and suppresses feeding. Nimboli 1L contains a guaranteed minimum of 1500 PPM azadirachtin per batch — a premium potency level that outperforms most budget neem oil products on the market. High azadirachtin content means more effective control at standard dilution rates, delivering better value per rupee spent. Learn why azadirachtin PPM matters when choosing neem oil.

Dilution Guide

Nimboli dissolves directly in water — no soap emulsifier needed. One 1-litre bottle makes 200 litres of ready-to-use spray at standard dose (5 ml per litre).

• Preventive spray: 2–3 ml per litre — once per week
• Active pest infestation: 5 ml per litre — every 3–5 days
• Fungal disease control: 5 ml per litre — every 5–7 days
• Soil drench: 10 ml per litre — every 2 weeks

Always mix in lukewarm water and use within 8 hours of preparation. See the full neem oil dilution chart.

Application Method

Use Nimboli 1L with any standard hand or battery-powered garden sprayer. The water-soluble formula ensures even coverage without the clogging or uneven spray patterns associated with cold-pressed neem oil. Apply in the early morning (before 8 am) or evening (after 6 pm) to avoid leaf scorch and to protect pollinators. Spray all leaf surfaces thoroughly, paying particular attention to the undersides of leaves where pests and fungal spores accumulate. For soil drenches, pour the diluted solution slowly around the base of the plant to reach the root zone.
