What Is Neem Cake Powder (Neem Khali)?

Neem Cake Powder, commonly known as Neem Khali, is produced by crushing the neem seed cake left after cold-pressing neem oil. This cake is then dried and ground into a fine, easy-to-use powder.

Neem khali works in two important ways:

• As a natural, organic fertilizer providing nutrients.

• As a soil conditioner that helps manage many soil-borne issues and supports a healthier root environment.

How to Use Neem Cake Powder (Neem Khali)

You can use Neem Khali in potting mixes, around existing plants, and in garden beds.

1. For Pots and Grow Bags (Existing Plants)

• Mix gently into the top soil layer.

• Water thoroughly after application.

• Repeat every 30–45 days or as needed.

2. In Potting Mix (When Preparing Soil)

• While making potting mix, add 5–10% Neem Khali by volume.

  • Example: For 10 kg of potting mix, add about 500 g–1 kg of neem cake powder.

• Mix thoroughly so it is evenly spread through the soil.
