Neem Oil Under LED

I have a 90 watt LED UFO. Does Anyone know if I can apply neem oil with the LED light still. I know it's recommended to apply with lights off so the plant doesnt burn but I guess I'm curious if it would have the same affects under an LED light as its not as intense or hot.

I apply it with the lights on all the time. The key is to use a a spreading agent. Either a product made for it like Saturator, or a biodegradable soap like Dr. Bronners.

Awesome thanks man! I just applied it to the plants. I raised all my lights for today just to be safe. I used 4ml biodegradable dish soap 6ml neem oil and 800ml warm water. Shook well before and throughout spraying. I also made sure to warm the neem before mixing it. Hope this helps! Going to re apply in like 3 days. The room has plenty of fans to help dry the plants quickly and keep air movement. I also dropped the temps down to about 67. Kept a window open and overnight it dropped to about 58 last night. Just from that alone there seemed to be many less mites.

Remember to get the undersides of the leaves.
