I found little green worms on my buds just a few worms my question is is it okay to use safer btk catepiller killer this late in flower the plants have been going for 71 days. Should I just keep picking them off or use the btk, I'm wondering if I should cut down now or try the spray any insight into my problem thanks mark.

fooooock,.. you mean in the buds, or muching the leaves? bud worms are caterpillars too, but they mine in and stay there,.. you'll have to manually search and destroy, by looking for wilted, off color leaves and flower clusters,.. they musy eat the Bt to die, and ones inside may not get dosed,.. anything outside buds is easy to kill! bt is as safe as you can get for this late stage,... if you can spot them and remove, low level infestation, skip the Bt,..

Thanks I have been searching every day and killing them and cutting bud where they were .I have noticed bud rot starting where they were inside the buds.

...damn! yeah, they open up the tissues by damaging them, then the mold moves right in,... you're in a war mate, keep fighting best you can, there is no real fix for this,.. Bt can help, but once inside, the worms may not eat the Bt coated parts, so won't die,...

I ghink the humidity is 67% most days I live in new brunswick canada in the northern part and it's very humid and temps get cold at night lately it's been 50 degrees at night . I I have been catching the rot as soon as it starts and it is always around a catapiller. I'm going to post some more pics tonight or tomorrow. Do you know of any insecticides that are good ? Is pyrethrin Okay to use or products with it okay I need to spray my speedy chile they are in early stages of flower not any buds yet and I don't want the same thing to happen to them like the neville haze. is neem oil Okay to spray at this stage?

 

[Waira]

...yes, pyrethrum is good, a spinosad containing product is better,.. but again, unless they are hit directly with it, or ingest it, they won't get snuffed,... No neem! it's oily, sticky, stinky stuff, the last thing you want on you buds,.. foliage is fine of course,..

Girls are just a little on the hungry side ! I'd increase your nutes slightly and give her more N

Nice plants.
