I’ve been sprpaying my lemon haze auto with lost coast crop control for mites and other pest but now finding small caterpillars. Any suggestions on how to procee. I know you are not supposed to spray flowering plants but what are my options. She’s 80 days in. Any help out there? I plan on doing a bud washing before hang to dry when she’s done.

Are those aphids in the last pic?

Your pictures show aphids, which are pretty easy to kill. You can just spray with soapy water or H2O2 solution.

At this point the worms are almost impossible to get rid of, as they’re deep in the bud, shitting away. You’ll have to do daily inspections and remove the infected buds. Make sure and remove ALL the infected area, as the poop will lead to mold and if left will ruin the entire cola. The big bummer is that it’s almost impossible to notice. Look for any yellow sugar leaves. If you see one pull it straight out from the bud (not down). If it comes off, almost assuredly the bud is rotting and you’ll need to clean it out.

This picture is a good example. Looks good until you look right in the center and you can see the leaf turning yellow. Sure enough there’s a worm and the entire bud is toast.

Doesn’t help you at this point, but going forward you’ll want to spray with a Bt product (listed for worms) starting early in your grow. It doesn’t kill on contact and breaks down quickly in the sun. So you’ll want to make it part of your PM strategy from the get go.
