Well if it’s taste in the buds your worried about then you could do a root drench. If it’s a pest there are sticky traps, fans, and spraying it with water, if it’s fungus it’s prob in the roots so neem oil to the roots could help.

What do u mean? Im just trynna find like something else i can spray instead of neem oil for the bugs not to eat my plant and i heard that the neem oil leaves a taste on ur buds.
Well technically anything left on will leave a taste as it’ll likely be an oil. I would just knock the bugs off with water and if your indoors you could try maybe burning lavender or vaporizing lavender oil into the air to make the go out.
Yea when u wash it with hydrogen peroxide and lemon juice the oils get taken off so im guessing thats good
See if u use it before flower then you’ll have no issue, u could try to really smoke it out tho, or use essential oils in a vaporizer.
Correct me if im wrong as i have yet to treat plant in this fashion but ive read once in flower its safer to use an insecticide soap & water mix to replace the neem or other liquid applications? Im kinda asking as well as maybe giving an alternative action but again have only read this in random google posts so if anyone with knowledge could answer it would be muchly appreciated
Thats pretty interesting. I have a lavender plant right by my grow area so if i get an infestation i could burn that mfker down 
to smoke out the pest? My biggest time to worry about pests is towards harvest time as most the predatory bugs hall ass for the winter so that lavender might be getting burnt this year if need be lol

I’ve read to put sunflowers in a perimeters around the grow space, then lavender around that, then basil around that. Basil for bugs, lavender as repellent, and sunflower seeds for the birds

Since it’s bugs screw spraying, hit em with medium streams of water, enough to knock them off but not enough to damage the plant itself, and just have sticky traps around the plant if bugs are that much of an issue tho I’d get a big net and a cage and put it around the plant after knocking them off of your plant and spraying the ground with insecticide so nothing comes in.

I mean I used Neem lol last grow and I didn’t really seem to taste it all that much, I highly recommend shaking the plant and spraying it with water to get them to come off, especially since u already sprayed with with neem.
Yea thats why im going to wash it at harvest.
