9. JADAM herb soluion (JHS)
JWA and JS can control diseases and some pests but to control wider
range of insects including cabbage white butterly caterpillars, tobacco
moth, beet armyworm, stinkbug, thrips, you need JADAM herb solution
(JHS). Use Jerusalem artichoke as the basic pesticide. For stronger JHS, use
gingko, and then Korean pasque lower root (KPFR) for even stronger JHS.
is is how you make them:
Cut fresh plant into pieces; put them in a mesh bag with a rock (to sink
it); put the bag in a pot. For pressure pots, add water to just submerge the
mesh bag of plant; for normal pots, add about 30% more water. For 1 kg
(2.2 lb) of fresh plant, add 4 L (1 gal) of water for pressure pot and 5 L (1.3
gal) for ordinary pot; for 1 kg (2.2 lb) of dried plant, add 20 L (5.3 gal) for
pressure pot, 25 L (6.6 gal) for ordinary pot. e water must be soft water in
which JWA mixes clearly.
Boil for 4 hours in pressure pot (5 hrs in ordinary pot). Use high heat
irst, bring to boil, then lower to medium and maintain boil. You will get
JHS around 70% of the volume of the water you added. After inishing boil,
drip the bag and obtain the remaining water. You must use mesh bags partic-
ularly when the particles are small like KPFR.
If you want to store JHS, pour the solution while it is still boiling into
heat-resistant bottles until completely full, close lid tightly and lay it on the
side for long storage. Use gloves when handling hot liquids. e whole bottle
including the opening will be sterilized due to heat. e smaller the bottle,
the easier the long storage.
Keep in cool and dark place. Cold storages are also good.
When using JHS, do not use the sediments, ilter if not clear.
Mix 3-20 L (0.8-5.3 gal) with water to make 500 L (132 gal). For fog ma-
chines, use 10 L (2.6 gal) for 17 L (4.5 gal).

JWA and JS can deal with some of the pests but for better effect, we rec-
ommend using JADAM herb solutions. You do not need professional
knowledge to do so. Observe plants and trees; see which ones repel insects;
have strong smell. Most of those plants have repelling or killing effect of in-
sects. Common plants all around you can become valuable asset. Some of
the easily available varieties with strong insect-repelling effect include:
Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus), gingko, pokeweed, water pep-
per (Persicaria hydropiper), bracken (Pteridium) and foxglove (Digitalis
purpurea). Red spider lily (Lycoris radiata) and the root of Korean pasque
lower (Pulsatilla koreana) are highly poisonous. It took me a while to real-
ize that many of the common plants were effective as pesticide. At irst, I
experimented with expensive herbs used in oriental medicine. But using ex-
pensive and rare herbs was against the spirit of JADAM. JADAM had to be
SESE (simple, easy, scientiic, effective). I never imagined that Jerusalem ar-
tichoke could become a pesticide. ere is not a single bit of information in
all the world that mentions that Jerusalem artichoke has poisonous prop-
erty. It is food for us! Mr. Jeongho Gim of Gimcheon irst found out about
this property of Jerusalem artichoke. I interviewed him and learnt that
Jerusalem artichoke was not only effective for diabetes but also had pesti-
cide effect. is piece of information greatly opened up the world of herbal
pesticide for JADAM. Jerusalem artichoke is easily grown and available
anywhere in the world. ey grow tall so do not even need weeding. Boil
its leaves, branches and roots to get herb solution; mix with JWA and use as
pesticide. It will control aphids, mites and most moths.
ere are many methods of obtaining herb solution including brewing
herbs in vinegar, wood vinegar or alcohol, but JADAM recommends boil-
ing the herbs. is method is cheap, easy and can get strong solutions.
Imagine boiling chicken in water and leaving the chicken in vinegar or al-
cohol. Which soup would you like to eat? Boiling certainly brings out a lot
of nutrients from the chicken. You can use a large pot to make a large
quantity and store them in vacuum and sterile conditions for 1-2 years.
Large pressure pots are optimum but ordinary pots can also be used. But if
you are using latter, boil 1-2 hours longer. e JHS you get by boiling

herbs mix well with JWA; they do not clot; they form much foam. If you
use high-pressure double pots used in oriental medicine, you can get
stronger solutions faster. Herbal solutions made from brewing in vinegar or
wood vinegar do not mix well with JWA; those from alcohol mix well.
Herbs with strong scent such as peppermint, Korean mint, cinnamon
bark, star anise (Illicium verum), rosemary, lavender, hot pepper, mustard,
pepper, etc. can be deep fried in oil. Poisonous substance will melt into the
oil. Oil also has the advantage of keeping the lavor for a long time. I plan
to upgrade JWA by using this oil instead of canola and name it herbal
JADAM wetting agent (H-JWA). If this is successful, water plus H-JWA
will be sufficient to control pests. It makes things even simpler. ere is also
“fresh juice” method where you blend fresh herb and use; but JADAM ad-
vises against it because it is a hard work, not as effective, and can leave
sticky substances on the fruit.
You can get herbal solution from tobacco leaves, garlic, hot pepper and
gingko fruits by leaving them in water instead of boiling. Herbs that are
not easily decomposed can be made with this method without boiling. For
tobacco leaves, leave in water for 15 days, hot pepper and gingko fruits (in-
cluding peel) for 1 month, minced garlic for 1 month.
If the bottle inlates during storage, it indicates failure in sterilization; the
These are some herbal
oil you get after deep
frying strong-scented
herbs in canola oil.
Using these in making
JWA is another prom-
ising field that can
make pesticide use
even simpler.
