Ok, I've been researching plants in the same family(SOLANACEAE)as tomatoes and tobacco which are what hornworms normally feed on. One plant jumped out at me, petunias. Petunias are listed as non-toxic. If hornworms could survive on them it would be great since the plants are super cheap and commonly available. Even though they are listed as non-toxic to humans and reptiles, I would not want to use my guy as a guinea pig(assuming the hornworms even eat them). If you find the article on non-toxic plants for hornworms I'd appreciate it.
