Hello, I'm a medical marijuana patient and this is my first year growing.. I heard Sour D is good for anxiety and depression so that is what I usually smoke and decided to grow.. I'm down to the wire right now but caterpillars have made their presence known! I'm pulling 2-5 of these suckers off every night..
My plant started flowering around the first-second week of august and I'd love nothing more then to let it grown until late october but I don't have the time to pull off caterpillars every day and I've gone pretty light on nutrients so far and don't want to have to use sprays.. I'd rather pull the plant a few weeks early than lose most of it to cattapillars or have to use some harsh spray (I know they make organic ones but I don't even want to go that route.) Plus I want my sour diesel to be more of a heady high, which I hear is achieved more when the plant is pulled early.
I can deal with caterpillars for another week or two but after that I feel like there is the potential that it will drive me insane!! Does anyone know how much damage caterpillars can do in a months worth of time if they go unchecked??? Any help would be appreciated.. And here are the pictures, sorry i took these at night so its a little dark
