BT will affect the taste of your bud if used too late in the season. It's just fine to wash your plants before harvest. Even my indoor plants are sometimes taken outside on harvest day and sprayed down well with a fine spray, and then dried for a couple of hours and harvested.

I couldn't quite determine how big that bud worm was. A week or two ago I found a little brown caterpillar thing in one of my girls, and I picked it off. Now I'm noticing that I have what locals call "meat bees" picking through my plants, and I'm wondering if they're finding and eating more of these little things I found. It was between 1/4"-18" long.
What's the BT, or the bacteria that are in it?
Are the GrowFAQs back up yet?
