cant get a picture of these damn things but they are probably 3 MM long and grew im going to post a crude paint picture i made i know if wont help. i keep finding them on my stems and they scurry away when i go to smush them. i havent seen one fly so i dont know. and there isnt an over abundance of them that i can see. i keep finding holes in my leaves though.

it almost looks like they dont have back legs because of the body covering them up and they sit with thier front end up. when they move its more of a jumpin motion.

lol. how much did you smoke that made you think to do that pic?? i have the same insect on my plants from time to time. they never hurt my plant any, i crush them when i see them though. i'll take a pic of one if i see any in the future.

btw, you did damn good on the pic...lol, i knew what you was talking about :)

yeah i dont think they where bugging anyting. i debated on making the picture for a while haha. atleast i found these cattapilars roaming around. i cuoldnt figure out what the hell was eating my leaves. im pulling all the plants out now and killing what i can see. i dont know if the sulfure will have any affect on theplants.

Put a tomato plant in with your ladies, they will all attack it first instead of your girls....... or at least give you time to notice them and do something about it before your girls are in bad shape. I did this, this time around and am amazed, my tomatoes look like shit from the loopers, but not one bug on my girlies. easier to rid them buggers from the tomato than from your grow. Good luck!

they are bud worms. they hatch out of the soil. and fucking suck a big fat dick, every day i find 3 or 4 more of them and there is nothing aproved by the FDA to use to control them besides picking them off. i have read i can put a ring of vasoline aroudn the base of my plants and they wont be able to climb up them. has anyone else tried this or know if this could be harmfull in anyway?
