I have three Pineapple Express plants Ive been growing in my backyard in 5 gallon buckets. Few weeks ago I bought insect netting to keep pests away. The last few days I took the netting off the plants and yesterday I was closely looking at the buds and noticed I have a caterpillar issue. Found one caterpillar nestled deep inside a lot of buds. Help please. Been using neem oil but I don’t want to saturate the buds with neem oil

Cant see the pics. Have to wait until says 100% then post
In the first plant I found 5 caterpillars nestled deep inside 5 different buds. On the 2nd plant, same deal. Third plant only had 1 caterpillar inside of a bud
Remove all, brown rotted areas. Neem oil is absorbed into the flowers and doesn’t wash away. It can result in a harsh smoke after dry and cure.
Double check this… but I thought you could use BT up til harvest. It ‘should’ kill the worms.
I lost a lot to those evil worms, finally found my BT… now going to pretreat my photo before they become an issue. Damn worms!
If I am mistaken, please correct me!
