I just read a article that says spinosad does work great for controlling population another alternative is BTK in dust form wich can be foilar sprayed on plants. More organic alternatives being Neem and Just Insecticidal soaps
I use the praying mantis and they do keep the population down. Last week we found 3 caterpillars in our garden and was forced to spray the Safer Caterpillar Killer, now I've lost the mantis population and still have caterpillars? Uggh!Im glad to get all these responses about this topic, thank you all! But I think im just gonna keep using neem during veg...and then during flowering im gonna get a shitload of praying mantis's...also ...like I said, I have faith in these lizards I see grown ones and tiny baby ones, so they must be thriving...they just love my property for some reason....
Almost forgot, how goes the Durban plant did it sex yet?
Yeah I have seen no caterpillars yet, just grasshoppers...but thats coo i'll definitely get some praying mantises, and the durban, Im pretty sure its a female, not 100% though, I think im seeing pistils but they are tiny....I use the praying mantis and they do keep the population down.

Congrats on the pistils bro...and I hope you continue to get lucky w/pests...I know im lucky, nature seems to be takin care of the bugs right now...these lizards are going to work! like 4 scurry away whenever I go to water my girls...its awesome
...so that got yanked lol anyways here's some just more unnecessary pics a took today 
Yeah im lookin close...and the three sativas...I cant say I know any of their sexes...
Use a magnifying glass. My last sativa to show gender the pistals were so small. In the begining the Hijak was small too. If the calyx has a stem its a boy.
Yeah but like I said these durbans are odd, even Fdd said so...they do have a lil stem at the nodes, but no sacs, just more tiny fan leaves...anyways i'll continue to look, but im really leaning towards female for the big durban..I think I saw super small pistils like you said....
Sure bro Ill put a pic up exclusively of the Hollands hope...its the one thats smashed in between the other big two...its kinda grown around the other two...it isnt very wide...but its got all these tall tops
