What could this larva be. Close to harvest big buds

[Oregrown greenbudz]

I found 1 budworm after a through search in a separate plant I'm wondering what pest could cause these larva. This may be the wrong forum but the plants are outside buds are getting huge I'm thinking ten days or less till harvest. Theres no clear triclomes. I like about 20% amber and have about 1%. Also the it seems strange to me that the pistils are all white with the trich. % being what it is

Theyre a type of moth also are you sure you're looking in the right spot to check trichs? Alot of people mistakenly pull plants early because theyre looking at sugarleaf trichs. Which always mature faster than on the bud itself so theyre not really a good point of measurement

Maybe longer than 10 days fam! A budworm? A caterpillar?

I don;t think you're close, I think about a month +, but my thinking may be skewed

Thank you. I was looking at the leaves. That's good to know.

Another tell tale sign would be the stigma starting to change and calyx filling in some of that space. It's about to get a whole lot fatter for you !

 

[Oregrown greenbudz]

Any advice what I should do for the bugs?

I am looking at the pic - It looks like tiny clear bodies? I hate pests.. I have used many methods but I literally do something everyday to help prevent them in the garden. I don't wait for them to show - so many of my techniques won't work for u.

Maybe q tip dipped in hydrogen peroxide , gentle under-leaf swipe for the spot you notice. Check for webbing.

That's my safe advice for u

You want to interrupt their cycle asap. And disrupt it consistently for the next week or so.

If you find the pest's leader, stake it's head to a toothpick and place it on the edge of ur soil so the others get the memo.

Do I have to order that stuff online? Will it wash off before harvest?

Yea I did a lot of research and used some knowledge. They have a lot of salt on their shells and theres a lot of salt in seaweed. A lot of people use kelp for the K. To much salt will cause nutrient lockout I guess. I had good results. Calcium from the shells.

Just read that second paragraph - Don't spray while you are in flower like this. You can but I would not.

Theres also tons of nitrogen in fish juice

dip and dab! the fizz kills the larvae and eggs you may not see - don't overdo it and cut it with water if you don't trust urself
