Borrowing Caterpillars in Flowers
FlowerKINGstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hey all, does anyone have product advice for borrowing caterpillars? I have had the tops of three buds destroyed by caterpillars boring into them, and draining them dry. By the time i find them it's too late. Any advice on preventative products this far in flower

Buy a product called Caterpillar Killer by "safer brand" its a bacillus product. And just keep checking the plants and kill where you can. It never seems like you can be 100% rid of them.☹️

Hello. Please try: 1 liter of water, 1 tsp of cayenne pepper, a couple drops of dish soap in a spray bottle. Spray enough to find, or chase out of the bud. If you use too much you'll get hot lungs when you smoke it. Good Luck. Chuck.

You could try a little dawn dish soap mixed in water. It wont hurt your girls but maybe the stoner caterpillars wont like the taste. Sorry friend Cheers

Fungus gnats ruined my last grow and I just found one in my tent. I mixed food grade diatomaceous Earth in my soil just in case, but it looks like it didn’t work. I topped the soil with more and have a moving fan. Is there anything else I can do? I’m scared of another infestationWeek 2

This is my second grow using the same basin for two plants, and maybe it's just a coincidence, but one plant seems to do better than the other. When their roots mingle, can one steal nutrients from the other? Should the nutrient levels be higher for two plants?Week 8

Is it normal for my seedling to be at only one inch height after 8 days? Technically it did take about 2 days to sprout after planting. So I suppose it's really only been 4 days since sprouting. Slight yellowing on the leaves as well. My last auto was a huge fail.Week 2
