we spray the plants with our seaweed extract and i keeps alot of bug problems at bay( aphids, spider mites and caterpillars) have'nt seen any since started foliar spaying
thanks for sharing your knowledge TWS, have both Captian Jacks and other spinosad sprays, we will be better off next year, knowing we need to start spraying early. So do most people just cut the girls down when they get budworm, or let it go to maturity for more trichomes, etc?Sorry to hear this. Next year you will know. You actually have to start spraying before the flowers start and stay with it. The worm start's from the inside of the flower out and by the time you see the worm the damage is done. I have been spraying since the onset of flowering and are still losing flower to them. Just part of the game and it's been a bad year for moths . You can spray the spinosad now, it really smells like nothing and goes away in less than a week and is a bacteria and no chems. It will help ya bit.
Last year I had a few worms. I cut off any damaged colas, made sure to kill the caterpillars and let the rest of the plant finish.thanks for sharing your knowledge TWS, have both Captian Jacks and other spinosad sprays, we will be better off next year, knowing we need to start spraying early.

Depending on how bad the infestation is I would suppose. I generally catch it daily and pluck the dead part off and try to find the worm. I have had to top some nice colas because of them but the cola after topping just gets twice as fat and ends up looking like a baseball bat.thanks for sharing your knowledge TWS, have both Captian Jacks and other spinosad sprays, we will be better off next year, knowing we need to start spraying early.

Yeqh we are trying to decide what to do, we are having issues we are like at a 6-7 days of rain and flooding, girls have remained pretty water logged. We moved them again out of the garage back to the herb bed and it of course is pouring today and they are water logged and starting to sag.Depending on how bad the infestation is I would suppose.

munchie food is just arms lenght away hahahaNothing like sweet home grown pears (they're in good company, of course).
I think the moth will lay eggs all summer long until it gets cold enough that the disappear .Speaking caterpillars do they normally all hatch by a certain time of year? Or can they show up at anytime right up until harvest?
i always say that ya enemies don't know what ya are doing. 9 times out of ten its the person sitting right next to ya or that 3rd person they tell !! or people ya show yourself i don't like to see other peoples plants just to not be on the short list of suspects when shit happens !!If one is nieve enough to grow and don't think shit happens they are a danger to themselves and family.
I don't allow anyone to see my grow, not because I don't want them to see it, it's because, if I get ripped I know it wasn't any of my friends, ......it's because I value them, if that makes any sense.......i always say that ya enemies don't know what ya are doing. 9 times out of ten its the person sitting right next to ya or that 3rd person they tell !! or people ya show yourself i don't like to see other peoples plants just to not be on the short list of suspects when shit happens !!
perfectly normal.......steady as she goes.....Noticing quite a few fan leaves directly below the colas that are turning yellow. Is this normal at this stage or does it indicate some deficiency? Thanks!
