These pest are burrowing-into the center of the buds and eating their way out- I will try pyrethian today not pleased with this choice but better then no bud to harvest

I've also heard of the 'Sevin' being recommended, although I've not used it ... just be sure, whatever you use, is made for use with EDIBLE fruits and vegetables ... you 'could' also do a freshwater rinse of the plant, at harvest, just make sure it dries with plenty of moving air, to avoid mold forming ... good luck :thumbsup:

Mites, does nothing to caterpillars!

Hi this might help,
I found little green catterpillars 3 wks ago.
I was told to use DT which I had on hand. But a helpful person from FoXFarm
told me to try Dont Bug Me. sold online and at local indoor garden shops
after 3 consecutive sprays their gone and apear to not be coming back.
didnt need to DT them. Im keeping very close eye on them just in case eggs hatch.
you can use this product all the way to harvest day with no ill affects on the taste and quality. Hope this helps
good luck
