why do you keep making this thread? you already have one that's the exact same and there is a 50 page bud worm thread at the top of this forum. don't just sign up to spam the forums.

Instead of telling him he's a joker why don't you try to help him out. You need to use BT insecticide... it looks like your plants are struggling pretty bad so you need to get on that as soon as possible.

I told him in the other thread to use BT, isntead of assuming im being unhelpful why don't you check out the other thread he made first? besides THERE IS A GIANT STICKY THREAD AT THE TOP FOR BUD-WORMS. if he makes 10 threads identical you expect me to give him the same answer everytime?

BT is not an insecticide. It is a bacteria that screws around with the budworm's digestive system and causes them to die. No pesticide involved. Completely natural.

Also, from everything I have read on the subject, BT is not all that effective once they are in the bud. At that point you have to do a whole lot of hand surgery to remove the material that has been pooped in by the budworm. Once the buds are all cleaned out though, BT should help in keeping another infestation from occurring.
