The way that it is written is 'Add 1 1/2 tsp. per quart of water' - now maybe I'm not all that bright but I took it to mean '1.5 tsp' and not 'one each 1/2 tsp' which is the correct amount: 1/2 tsp. per quart.
Great product and definitely far better priced than Einstein Neem Seed Oil. The only 'genius' at this company was the person who came up with a way to increase the price of neem seed oil by 500% and nothing in value or performance was added.
Adding neem seed meal to your soil adds a great 'N' source as well as a decent 'K' source complemented by a wide range of micro-nutrients. Very effective against gnats I would add. Neem seed meal is what is left over after the oil is pressed. It's widely used in Asia (India & China in particular) as a fertilizer, livestock feed, et al.
