You should be able to find it at your local nursery supply or hardware store in the garden section. Over here we have it in every major home improvement store. I personally like a product call Captain Jack's Dead Bug, it's Spinosad, I don't know if it's available in Europe. It's cheap and effective, the BT should be sold anywhere you can buy a garden shovel.

The little caterpillars are hard as hell to spot, but it's also grasshopper season here in Cali, so you might have them out and about over there too. You won't see them because they hop away and fly off to go fuck over someone else's crop. I don't know how Spinosad would effect grass hoppers, but I know the little leaf hoppers are effected by it.

I'll be at the garden centre Monday to get some soil and perlite so will have a look for something, no harm at all have an arsenal of preventatives.
We have grasshoppers here too, they're not overly plentiful in my area though.
I lost some plants to wild goats already, I used wire with 4 inch squares I had lying about thinking it would be ok but I didn't count on the fuckers with no horns:)

What about locusts do you guys in the US have much of a problem with them?, I seen documentaries on Discovery about them that would make your toes curl.

In the South this year, was supposed to be like a 12 year migration of something, but I can't remember what they were, and I was lucky enough to be a few states low for it, but Locust are not too common here from my knowledge.

The Sevin says good within a 2week or 10 day period before harvest, but at first, I thought fine for veggies, why not good for smoke?

Grasshoppers are tearin my small autos up this year. Not really eatin the bigger plants. Best thing to use?


lorsban 4e will kill almost every bug you have in your crop BUT DO NOT SPRAY ON OR WITHIN A TWO FOOT DIAMETER of the plant!!!

Seven dust around the base of the plant will keep most thing away!!

I do not spray my plants with it says you can but i dont im all organic i spray everything around my garden with it so when they try to get in there died!!!
