so today i went out and found about 5 good sized green ones, and like 6 little ones, i would say about 25% of my tops have been affected and also maybe infected. I would say i am about the 4/5 wth week of flowering,some tops have already dried from having the tube cut off and were ready to smoke asap.
It was pretty good so im not trippin, plus im goin to join the coast guard soon so i really just wanna blaze and make some money here and there hookin up the homies

its indicia and yes it is potent right now, ive looked at the bud in the sun and it has cloudy and clear too, but i do NOT think it is done flowering but id rather not risk it, plus i have my kush plant and two other plants so well see how it goes

I wonder if watered neem would work to repel them? Neem works systemically, so you could water with a neem solution. I'm not sure if this would work with budworms, I've always just taken a loss with pests like that. It is best to apply BT often and early to make sure you don't get them.

Neem makes bud taste bad though so if you tried that, make sure you flush really well pre-harvest.
