I use Captain Jacks pre-mixed spray from hydro store. I had the same problem and it fixed it 100%. Oh and it is organic!

They are for sure evil bastards. Getting one of those fake owls at lowes will help also. Make sure you get the one with either reflective eyes or glow in the dark eyes.

Try this ORGANIC recipe. Fast, cheap and easy. Get 4-5 Habanero peppers and chop up as fine as you can. Boil 16 oz. of clean, filtered (or distilled) water, then turn off. Then put everything, skin and seeds into the water and let it steep for 30-45 minutes until it is cool. Add enough water to bring the total liquid to at least 32 oz. Spray the leaves, everywhere. When the grasshopper bites, they get a hot shot and will definitely take off and probably die. The plants love the pepper spray and it'll thrive once again. Peppers are like $0.25 each at the grocery store. Can add a few drops of Olive Oil as a wetting agent too.
