Aloha mon
not trying to sound like a ass but if any person has issues with budworm, easily preventable and conquered even if bad season
apply as your weekly knockout of pyganic 5.0 or cheaper and same thing just differnet label āevergreen 5.oā itās even made by same company and 3x cheaper . Same ingredients, your just paying for cert organics
since your limited on your cycles per spray ina season ( like many) I would suggest a biocontrol to be mixed in and to rotate inbetween your weeks with such ( just the biocontrol )
spray evergreen 5.0 or conserve sc + pfr-97 +bt +Grandevo than next week evergreen 5.0 or conserve sc and and some bt to keep larvae at bay alone or with only one biocontrol than next week pfr-97 and Grandevo (bt wonāt be a bad idea too ) alone than next week evergreen + pfr-97
kry is to kill all stages, dont let them gain population and be able to IPM through ur cycle np and have that issue like most pest a prevention win. Ot getting ur ass handed
and go on with evergreen or comserve sc in your mix as the knockout till 3-5th week of flower and only apply biocontrols after that
it works and way less harmful to your meds and issue with only knockout is if itās limited to 5 applications and u have a constant attack of misc soft bodied bugs , itās all about never letting them become resistant But also keep the IPM going every week and till harvest

another knockout but also repels and makes soft bodied not reproduce as fast, but more expensive And some plant stress ( why I didnāt suggest ) this brand is better than āazamaxā
