How much food should I add to each small cup?Updated 3 hours ago

We recommend that you fill each individual cup about 1/4 inch full of food before transferring the caterpillar into its new home. The included spoon in your kit is perfect for measuring this amount! Just scoop out a spoonful and level it using the included knife, then be sure to tamp down the food in the cup using the backside of the spoon.
