Week 5 in flower. I caught 3 small caterpillars and one orange worm in 1week.
How to get rid of them?
Do NOT use Neem oil. It will ruin your flower.
I recommend alternating between 2 products: “Safer Caterpillar Killer” which contains BtK (bacillus thurengiensis) and “Captain Jack’s Deadbug Brew” which uses a different bacterium called spinosad. I would start with the first product, wait 5 days then spray the other product. This will attack most everything on the plant. Make sure to soak your flower as caterpillars burrow into the colas and produce bud rot.
Plan on doing a peroxide bud wash at harvest. The two products are safe for animals and people FYI.
