Okay so thought I'd share a little update on how the BT Monterey has been doing annndd, it's working! I've found tons of dead caterpillars already and as of this morning I have only found 3 barely alive caterpillars on the gal that's most infected. I've sprayed this plant 2 times in a row and it seems to be doing the job and I'm so happy. I honestly was really worried my BT Monterey got too hot and ruined the chemicals in it but thankfully it's okay. Question though, would it be okay if I stored my BT Monterey in my fridge or would that not be good?
 
Do you need a specific kind of medicine? Personally I have extra (that often ends up in the compost pile after a few years). And I’m sure I’m not the only grower with an abundance. Hate to read about your grow going south. If you’re in the States would be happy to send donations. Seriously - if you find yourself in need, drop me a DM.
one mans compost is another mans smoke. i would totally take you up on this if i was in a desperate need for medical relief.

Hey guys, does anyone know what kind of bug lays these eggs?

I cannot for the life of me find any eggs that look like this and are placed like this. I'll only find like 1-2 on a single branch this is the first time I've seen 4 on one branch. I'm wondering if these are caterpillar eggs? Idk maybe one of y'all knows? They're never clustered or anything they're always like this.


EDIT:
also just to make sure, these are assassin bug eggs right?

Heck,here's what I mean about the pains of keeping a weed alive.
Just did all my nutes and watering a bit ago,sun out and no rain in forecast and its just started pouring out now. Guess I'm getting natures unscheduled flush today...ughhh
when the hurricane rains came recentely i just cut up construction/contractor grade/thickness garbage baggs into a long sheet and wrapped with it to cover around the smartpot and the stem. A little tape string rope or belts to secure it from the wind along the sides. Cut the bag into a sheet, wrap it around the sides, secure it, and then wrap the top of the bag to the stem with string or Some weights on the base of the soil. It sure helped keet the rain away from the root system while the leaves got a much needed natural rain clean/soak to remove fertilizers and foliar remnants.
Note,
This will only help protect the root system and is a temporary fix that you will need to add or remove with every storm, but every little bit helps and I didnt spend a dime as I had these materials layin around

I work in the grocery industry and as a rule of thumb we keep chemical products away from food products. With that being said, I would keep the BT separate from any food my family consumes. I think a cool spot in a shed or garage should be good enough
 
My first girl is getting close to finishing not long now. The other 2 probably won't finish until mid october. The anticipation is killing me. lol Any opinions on how she's coming along. I think just a week or so. It's TexadaTimeWarp 2 pounder crossed with Durban Poison. I dried out a test branch last week and im impressed with the buzz she gives focused happy and strong. Can't wait to send a nug to MCR Labs here in Boston to see a full profile on her. I'm shocked at how good she did. I tried a notill type of grow this year. No nutes or bottled anything. Just Coast of Maine and Happy Frog and water. I made tea out of coast of main and yard scraps in a reservoir I added some molasses and sprouts and that's it. They seemed to love it. I could have gotten them much bigger if i didn't use stupid 5 gallon buckets. But you live and learn and there's always next year.

Thanks for the response HighRootz! I should've added that I have a spare fridge that I don't use for any food or anything in my garage that I can use for storage if it's not bad to store BT Monterey in the fridge? It's incredibly hot where I live most of year, I'm talking high 90s all the way into the 100s so I really don't have any good cool places to store this stuff as my garage gets turned into a sauna and I rarely have the AC on due to high expenses so the spare fridge is really the only place that I can think of that's cool enough to store lol

Oh well, have at it then. I just wouldn't keep it too cold, but then again, with caterpillars revenge is a dish that is best when served cold🤣
Those caterpillars will be thinking a nice cool shower of rain hit them on a warm fall night til their life force starts fading lol
 
Hit the one month mark fingers crossed!

fridge is fine but kinda over kill. a simple rubbermaid or airtight container from home depot/lowes is enuff if you have those layin around too.
 
Seem to be coming along nicely, most are between 9-10’ tall and 6-7’ wide
