  • Do you mean SB plant invigorator, or something else?  The SB stuff is good for fighting spidermite by a kind of barrier action when sprayed on, but doesn't contain any nasty chemicals. 

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
  • not sure if it sb ,what was told it does is it controls spider mite and many other things by it smothers them in sticky/soapy solution and suffocates them and at the same time feeds the plant but to be careful as not to spray in hot weather that's it.

  • That sounds like the stuff.  It doesn't contain insecticides, so no problem with wildlife.  I find it works well to keep spider mite under control, especially on things like cucumbers where I wouldn't want to use any chemicals.  It won't eliminate spider mite though - for that you need predator mites (Phytoseiulus.)
