Spraying BT helps and I recommend you spray not only your plants. But a 20 foot perimeter around the entire garden.
This way caterpillars are affected before they get to your plants. If I use organic pesticides I always do the perimeter
1st. Always spray with the wind to your back and walk backwards. Inhaling bug sprays of any type isn't healthy.

Fulla never got back about results.. hey from a fellow kiwi.

I heard the mold hit him hard. He was running a lot of indoor strains outdoors, they didn't have the resistance needed to deal with the wet climate. If I remember correctly a few of the local strains did all right but it sounded like a bad year. Losing your stuff to mold is the worst, totally demoralizing.
