Just my 2 cents about budworms,, I use to get them all the time here in PDX area... A spray with Captin Jacks Dead Bug Brew,, Spinosad,,, the first couple weeks in Sept and I haven't seen anymore.. The stuff will dissipate after acouple weeks.. And It's not important to get both sides of the leaf. Doesn't burn your buds either if used correctly....

Of course, it won't work on the boring worms.. Or not that I know of????

GL with the worms...

After reading this it reminded me it's that time for mine to get a spraying...

Least catterpillers are easier to handle than the Hemp Mites that been plaguing Oregon lately.... The Super Borg

This was all I could find on short notice. $11.99 CAD at Canadian Tire. I just hope that's not an expiry date above the label on the back.
If there's a date on there its supposed to be the date of manufacture. Mine got partially wiped off. It's supposed to be less effective more than 2 or 3 years from that.

That's the stuff man. Concentrate I assume. Roll with bro. Get that sprayer ready pronto.

Tells us about these hemp mites. Is it like the black plague of death or what. War stories from the front lines, this is a great thread.....

Hemp mites have wiped out more than one plant of mine... I'm dealing with afew this year..

sprayer.jpg garden.jpg I'm trying a new product called Big Time Exterminator. The best product I've found for them so far is the Green Cleaner... But shit is costy when you have plants that are 9-10'. I use an atomizer to spray with. Makes it abit easier when you got alot of leaf mass to coat...

Holy sh*t. Us worm guys thought we had it bad. Is this similar to spider mites where you can see them and spray them off the plant? Are they attacking the leaf, stems? You have massive plants to deal with.

It's funny and cruel how nature tries to take this from us. I'm in the NE. Buddy of mine stopped by tonight. He's fighting to get his across the finish line. Has a rust fungus setting it on the flower. He's like, "how do those guys in CA, WA and OR deal with this shit?"

You gotta be like a f@$ing ninja to do this sh*t but dam is it pleasing......

Your garden looks fantastic by the way.

Just got in from some night gardening patrol. Love being out there at night. Can still hear the bugs chirping, full moon tonight. Winter is a coming.....

I just went to check on my almost finished auto beauties and found sooo many centipedes or whatever it is. So I'm picking those fuckers with tweezers and killing them.
