this r the pb i have ftm. on last picture, on top of the bud ull see with zoom a small caterpillar. i have some more pictures but need to see if they will post so this is probing post

[caldarii]

ok i see attaching picture is working , now plss if anyone can help me with my problems.
first picture - im not sure if that is a hermie or not ( im having auto mazar and they are on 10th week from seed) need some opinion about this one pls.
second picture - i had problems with powdery mildew and after some research i found that salt with water will help get rid of pm so i sprayed it on my girls.but the next day i saw some purple and yellow spots and im not sure what is that?
last picture - there is on top of the bud (if u zoom ) a small caterpillar that is eating the bud.what can i do? how can i get rid of those?

if anyone can help me pls i will apreciate!!
i can attach more picture if necessary.Attachment 294082Attachment 294083
thank you!

lots of solutions for PM but salt and water is damaging to the leafs, as is cinnamon water and baking soda water. Try neem oil and a little dish detergent or even just the detergent and vegetable oil in water.
I see poorly but I can't find any male stamen on your plants.
Caterpillars you just pick off and destroy. You wouldn't want to spray anything on the buds now. insect killing soap works well but you don't want that on the flowers. Put a barrier (tin, cardstock) around the bottom of the stem to keep caterpillars from climbing onto the plants

Hand pick the critters off. Neem oil will work the best & as Shovel sez anything else will funkify the flowers! Peace
