I second the no on spraying, but definitely take these seriously. Some types of caterpillar will bore into the stem nodes and continue feeding on buds during your cure. Their poo causes rot, so you'll need to watch moisture if you rinse them, which I would do if you did spray. Spinosad itself is...

That's the carcass after getting zapped. Lousy pic, useful only for scale - that's a dime. You can see one of the wing "bones" to get a sense that it's maybe twice as long with the wings. Color is gold and kinda sparkly, the head is dark brown/black.

You must also find the adult moth to help ID. A UV bug zapper and/or moth lure traps to try to catch an adult moth. Challenge is that the lures are specific to individual types, so you need to identify to get the right lure. It is a recurring problem because one or two eggs or larvae are...

Has anyone been seeing what they suspect to be the Hemp Borer of old? I was surprised that the latin name did not come up here on the forums. I've been seeing low yields, light webbing for quite some time (several small indoor harvests). I've had mites, and spent a while thinking they had...

I could wear SM90 as cologne, love that stuff. This round I am giving the good bugs a shot. T minus 48: Knock-down spray with neem oil, emulsified with potassium silicate and bronners. Heavy spray (2 tsp/qt), once in am and again in pm (first and last hour of lights-out). T minus 24: Soap...

Are there old-fashioned co-ops happening in CA these days, medical members only, within the broad framework of prop 215, not catering to the recreational crowd, etc? Seems 215 would still be valid post-recreational, but not sure whether such avenues still exist. I cite the huge shift to...

Well I didn't even get any haters, trolls, or flamers on my thread asking for help identifying what I though was an alien caterpillar. https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/caterpillar-id.98355/ These are (most likely) leaf galls, caused by mite activity. I suspect broad mites based on...

Leaf Galls, caused by mite activity. Groovy links below. Although mine are nearly microscopic, they resemble "spindle" galls common on maple. I'll leave this thread here for posterity. https://entomologytoday.org/2015/06/11/galls-insects-behind-the-weird-growths-on-plants/...

Well I'm assuming at this point its some kind of plant tissue aberration. It grew a little more on the specimen leaf, but is now occurring along the serrations of another plant, different strain. I did accept that I have a mite issue even tho I can not see a single one under 30X magnification...

Dang Sin, looks like it's just you and me. Here's day 4. Very hard to capture in the photo, you may need to get yourself a scope. It continues to grow, and a second one appeared. This is a leaf that has been removed, and is in a sealed jar w a damp paper towel. I haven't seen more on the...

It grew over the past 24 hrs. Maybe it's some kind of wart?? These pics are lousy I know - just kind of hoping this rings a bell for someone. It does not move in any way. From the underside there is nothing other than a dimple, the inverse of the raised area you see around it in the pic. Happy...

Hey Farmers - I have never seen this thing before and can't find similar in the forum. I am assuming it's some kind of worm. I have seen a little brown moth (less than 1/4") twice in about six months, and did have caterpillar damage on recent harvest (boring into node junctions, and in one case...
