my main pest, an i know this sounds weird, but rolly polly bugs, the ones that curl up into a ball. yes they eat my leaves by climbing up the wooden fences, little coc* suckers. and of course white flyes but not too many at all anymore too cold at night. those rolly pollys loved my tester clones i clipped and put in the ground with the bottom of a 2 L bottle covering over top of the clone, the next morning the clone was chopped down like beaves do trees, lol wish i took a pic of that

Chowing down on your buds at this very moment. At least their chowing down on mine. I hit them with some with some BT this evening.

I have a question or two for those who have used BT in the past. Does it effect the quality of the weed. (Taste, Buzz....) And is it really safe for smoking. How long do you have to wait after spraying before you harvest. I've been using BT on my garden for decades without any problems but I always wash the food I grow before I eat it. But I'd have to be crazy to wash my weed before smoking it. Though I could give it a little spray down a few days before harvest. Any suggestions?

Here's some pics of my two plants progress. You can see the damage done to one of the buds and one of our crawly little pests.

If anyone has any idea of the strains I'm growing I'd sure like to know.
The bacteria attacks the gut of cattepillars and they starve to death! Different strain for masquitos. What happened to auto spell check? Sun light kills the bacteria so a couple of days out side should kill it.

What kind of worm and can I get rid of them this late in the game (bout 2/3 weeks from harvest)? And if so how? I have found maybe a dozen between 3 plants. 091511132230-1.jpg

Fuck those fuckers!

Spray your babies with a BT based spray ASAP.

In the meantime, mercilessly inspect you plants and kills all parasites that would not stopp eating your buds until they are gone, i've lost 60% of a plant because I didn't prepare or react soon enough, don't make my mistake.

Im not sure of the strains but are the from seed? Can't tell from you pics. I got a few in my monkey-gro that are crazy pink like yours but less dense and more on the elf side, not so big. Mine are from seed, my cultivated calls it snicklefritz..:)
 
i doubt there is only one, you have to spread each flower open and look between where they hide, if you see a bunch of rotting brown buds that fall apart when you touch them, there is caterpillar activity

catapillers this year were horrid I used the bt catapiller killer (2tsp p.Gal moved onto 2.5tsp p.Gal) spraying every 4 days but was still getting tons of them. Then I started to get powder mildew so I made solution (drop of dish soap, tsp of baking soda, quart of water) but that seemed to make it worse and burned the pistols from white to brown. Dunno what happend this year but next year im making a greenhouse. Plants were looking so good too before they budded and catapillers and powder mildew got them.
