JHS ferments repellant / insecticidal herbs into a stable extract used soft or hot depending on pest pressure. Farm-scaled batches respect USDA organic approved species lists—always verify before shipping peppers. This Pest Control preparation is made with fresh aromatic herbs (mint, mugwort, hot peppers, etc.) and is a staple input in regenerative Korean Natural Farming — feeding soil biology instead of relying on synthetic fertilizers. It is one of 50+ free recipes we use daily at the IC SPICY nursery in Port Charlotte, Florida.
Ingredients
- 500 g – 1 kg Fresh aromatic herbs (mint, mugwort, hot peppers, etc.)

- Dilute with JWA for coverage; rotate weekly with JS to avoid resistance.
Common questions
How long does JADAM Herbal Solution (JHS) take to make?
Plan for about ~1 week from start to finish. Fermented and cultured inputs improve with proper timing, so follow the step schedule in the recipe rather than rushing stages.
When should I apply a Pest Control input like this?
Match the input to the plant's growth stage, per Master Cho's nutritive cycle theory: vegetative-stage plants favor growth inputs like FPJ and FAA, while flowering and fruiting plants favor WCA and FFJ. Apply early morning or late evening, and never in strong midday sun.
Is this safe for organic or no-spray gardens?
Yes — like all IC SPICY CookBook recipes, this uses only biological and food-grade ingredients with zero synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Always label your jars, use clean tools, and do a small test application before treating every plant.
