Hi Can you bring plant outside? I'd say hose down the plant and knock as many off as possible. Then go buy a spinosad spray and pretty much spray all the leaves. Remove any leaves that are extremely affected also. After like 2 days, hose it down with water again. Then up the airflow tremendously after each water hose down to lower rot risk. Then when you harvest, do that Cervantes dip where its a big bucket with hydrogen peroxide and water and do a bud rinse, it should dislodge any of the leftover bugs so you wont smoke em...and any lingering spray.

These hit my artichokes and they suck. If you choose, treat with a foliar Bacillus thuringiensis

You have a caterpillar infestation, Caterpillars!!! Argh!!! Sometimes the first sign of caterpillars / worms / cabbage loopers is just seeing chunks of your leaves missing. You may also see clumps of black/brown “dirt” on your leaves, which is caterpillar poop. Lastly, you may actually catch a caterpillar munching on your leaves. It can be so angering to catch them in the act!
