Can you put up some pics of the bugs and any damage they did? Be great for refrence. Hope you get em wiped out. @Borderryan22 is spot on with that product.

Inspect every inch of every stem for bore holes.

it was not pretty. Lost 4 plants. I’ll stick to tomatoes outdoors and weed indoors.

Good Morning :smiley: sorry to hear about your bug :bug: problem. Hope the rest of your grow goes smooth. :blush::v:

Going today to get some bug stuff found two more of them things this morning hopefully no more its crazy u remember the day the dam moth xame in the house

Those hanging cloth moth traps work pretty well, indoors or out. I just found a few wormy boogers on one of mine yesterday. They were tiny and hadn’t really damaged anything yet. I have sprayed a few times this year proactively and I think it helped. Last year I had to toss about half my crop. @Borderryan22 is right about the captain jacks, the pre mix IMO is only ok. Mix your own at 1.5 of the directions, and spray a lot under the canopy. Should solve the problem

So sorry to hear this, but it is a good thing you noticed it in time. The only good thing about getting bugs, is next time you are ready for them. We have all been there, but when you treat your plants, they are pretty resilient.
