I have tried shaking the plants but these little fockers like my babies as much as I do and dont want to let go. I think its too late to spray as they are close to being ready to harvest. Mad as hell in modesto!!


these are apple moth larvae...they will tunnel in and kill the buds they drill into and eat. I tried organic foggers/sprays ...nada

Keep picking them off (they hide inside too so ya got to open the buds a lil to see) along with the dead stuff and watch for mold in those areas

they ate alot of my crop
