Sorry to hear about your colas :(. I bought an 8 oz container of Safer Caterpillar Killer for ~$12 from Capitol Nursery near Sac yesterday. I don't really know where you're located, but I'd try calling places first (save you from running around like I did haha :D). I checked at Home Depot and Lowes and I couldn't find anything with BT as the active ingredient. Hope the war against the worms goes well? I'm getting pretty scared :neutral:

Thanks TMB. I am beyond upset. I am a BAB (broke ass bitch), but 10$ to save ??$$$$?? I think I will pull it outta somewhere. Eff ATT...they piss me off every time I have to call (monthly) and talk to the automated mutha effa, so they can be pissed for a week waiting for my bill.

I'm sooooo sorry to hear your troubles.... I know the feeling, the year before last I got em' bad, and hand picked em' and tore my buds up, and they browned out and dried, but the good news was, they didn't get it all by far. While it was happening, it seemed like mu whole grow was being wiped out, but in the end, I prolly only lost a pound out of 10...I know it's alot, but it's not everything. Hey, if you can't get your hands on some spray right away, let me know and I'll mail ya a bottle myself!!

Thanks everyone for the advice. My daughter just happens to work across the street from Capital Nursery on Sunrise. I was going to get the safer, it was 11.49$ for an 8oz bottle. But the Green Light BT Worm Killer was 11.99$ for 16 oz. It also had 15% active ingredients compared to the 12.87% (total bs on the .87 I can't remember, but it was 12 something) active ingredient in the Safer. My question is, should I spray tonight or in the morning?

id spray very early morning at least 30 minutes before sun up, this way they get sprayed but have time to dry before the sun gets to intense and burns them

That is what I was worried about by spraying in the morning. Here I was thinking morning, okay like 8, 9 o'clock...30 mins before the sun?! Holy Bat shit Robin! I think I can manage...lol

i spray my veggie garden at about 5 am, and that is now 2 hours before sun up here. if your ina area where it does not get hot early then 8-9 should be fine

Well, I waited too long and now I can't see. When I do spray, should I spray inside the buds where the worms are too? I think that would just do more damage than help.
