How often to re-apply Neem oil? (slrpnk.net)

I'm using Neem oil preventatively on everything. Only on my balcony, nothing gets into the environment.

In what intervals do I need to spray? Does it get washed away with every rainfall? What about sun exposure?

More often in lower concentrations?

I tend to be a bit ideological at first sometimes with gardening, but at the end of the day you have to be pragmatic.

Same. My plan is, once I have a real garden sometime in the distant future, to grow only organically with nature in mind. But right now, in that environment and conditions, it just doesn't work sadly. It really hurt seeing that last season :(
