Hi this is my first time growing and i have a three foot purple urkle in my back yard , its done great until recently i noticed a couple of caterpillers , it has been blooming for four weeks now and am planning to harvest some time in early oct is it to late to use bt or should i just keep picking them off? i am afraid they will take over and it looks great , it is very sticky and pungent i feel it may be to late , PLEASE HELP....:-(

just pick them off, or just let them kick it on the plants.. they love bud, haven't you seen alice in wonderland?

either way don't kill the caterpillers.

You can try Sevin, and let it flower an extra week to make sure it gets out of it.
