I usually remove them, this year i am going to use some Colloidal silver for seed production.How do us "outdoor folk" usually feel about removing mid stem/deep inside popcorn sites?

You might want to make sure no outdoor bugs hitchhike inside if you have an indoor garden.SO I am thinking of bringing in a couple plants and start flowering them inside with a 600W hps two weeks before the natural flower date.
Then taking them back out to finish.
Anyone ever try this?
Try DE.Yeah these are pretty much inchworms.they're not awful right now but I foresee it getting worse. I'll give some of that a try just hate to spray too much on afraid it's going to stress the plants you know the neem, essential oils,and dead bug.i guess i just spread the applications out.thanks for the info!
Yea I've heard that works great. Never tried it but only heard good things. Dehydrates them to death I guess?Try DE.
Suspend will get em. If you know a landscaper maybe they can get you commercial grade. I believe a less potent version can be found at a garden centerI used this biz last year. Got it at lowes. It had great reviews so I tried it out. Worked like a charm getting rid of those little fuckers. This was on 2 outdoor White Widows in soil. View attachment 4170672
Neem works for me for general use, and I spray it on everything once a week, but those 'pillars are brutal. They didnt give a shit about neem. I had the little green ones that attach themselves to the underside of the stem at the base of a cola. Almost impossible to see. I hate them.
Yes, use the puffer it comes with and apply from the bottom upJust sprinkle around base of plant on soil?
Its a foliant and biodegrades in 48-72.Suspend will get em. If you know a landscaper maybe they can get you commercial grade. I believe a less potent version can be found at a garden center
It is targeting tent and gypsy caterpillars. It is not organic but becomes inert in 2-3 days. We use it on ornamental and fruit trees. Not sure about collateral damage to ally bugs but there'll be no more caterpillars.What exactly is suspend and is it organic?
I use this stuff. It has BT, which is a bacteria that kills the caterpillars. Works pretty well. I just mix it up in a pump sprayer and go to town...works great on tomato hornworms too.I've got a question about caterpillars horrible where I live been spraying with neem and essential oils peppermint orange and lavender seems to keep them in check somewhat but the little s**** are still around anyone have any advice?
I use spinosad works great for caterpillars,leaf hoppers and pretty much any leaf eater. I spray twice a week for 2 weeks.I've got a question about caterpillars horrible where I live been spraying with neem and essential oils peppermint orange and lavender seems to keep them in check somewhat but the little s**** are still around anyone have any advice?
look into BT great stuff for catsI've got a question about caterpillars horrible where I live been spraying with neem and essential oils peppermint orange and lavender seems to keep them in check somewhat but the little s**** are still around anyone have any advice?
Mine have been loving the rain. They needed it.So how's the weather treating everyone? 5 days of rain in central MA... Feels more like central Florida.
My greenhouse girls are doing well, but I had some indoor ready to cut & they started molding up almost overnight. Fml
If they are flowering, I would go with BT. Once they eat some it, they can no longer feed. They die from not eating.I've got a question about caterpillars horrible where I live been spraying with neem and essential oils peppermint orange and lavender seems to keep them in check somewhat but the little s**** are still around anyone have any advice?
