Cattapillars

These damn things are NOT going to win! I hand pick every day and this was todays bunch. I have buds 3-5 weeks along and I don't know what to use. I don't want nasty tasting buds from spraying chimicals. I tried insectaside soap. Didnt effect them. One good thing, my grandkids gave them a home. LOLThey had cattapillar Circus, races, and kept them busy all day.

Haha shit dude thats funny bout your grandkids. Cant help you bout getting rid of em though, sorry. Im fighting spider mites and some other kinds of bugs too, I dunno what to use either though.

Those aren't the type we get around here. Bt is just a thick maple sugar with a harmless bacteria suspended in it. It won't affect flavor if you wash your plants off a few days after application. This won't remove the bacteria, which remain effective up to a month. I apply it every 2-3 weeks.

I wish my grandkids were nearby. We don't get to see them much.

shit at least u could hand picked those mofos...i have the same problem but these fuckers aint just ur regular catterpillar there hairy catterpillars...i chech some of the leaves and they fckin hiddin a bunch of baby hairy shit. dang i use to fckin hate those birds eating my seedllings now that i need em i cant find em. would garlic juice control these son of a bitches? pardon ma french im just really upset that today i spend 2 hours under the burning sun cleaning the place

Bugs are the shits! I am doin indoors next time! Between the wind, hail, rain, Planes, farmers spraying weed killer, FRICKEN grass hoppers, aphids,bud worms and catapillars and the wasps chasing me. My plants are hugh growing outdoors but I am sick of it all. PLUS the damn paranoia!

I get mine at Lowes and I know you can get it off ebay its caller Safer caterpiller killer. You mix it in a spray bottle and yes its safe to use during flowering on buds my girls are 5 weeks into flowering and I sprayed them yesterday. Its safe up to 2 weeks prior to harvest. It works aginst bud worms and almost every other type of caterpiller, kills eggs and prevents butterflys from laying eggs in your buds! I have had great results with it this year hope you do as well! I apply every 2 weeks and also use neem oil when needed aginst other pest. Best of Luck.

Thanks Awill, I need something. Tired of harvesting catapillars. +rep
