Best thing I have going this year is the yellow jacket nest right near the plants, they're always searching the buds for caterpillars. Had to put a cage around it to protect them from the dogs and vice versa lol.
Is this part of the reason I've never had bud worms or rot on my outdoor? I always see wasps around, still have yet to find a bud worm and i'm on my 6th plant total grown outdoors, this time they're massive but i can't even find any mold! Not to mention not a single bug infestation, been watching out for bud worms, but i need some more experience on how to catch them early. too bad that won't happen until i find the first one.
I notice a trend with many growers, especially in my area. Everyone is spraying their plants even in flower with stuff to prevent budworms/caterpillars and they still have problems! I have not sprayed anything on the plants since before the first flowers came (neem oil/insecticidal soap)
Why is it i don't get any budworms without doing any preventative measures?
