Default Is this a Lily 'Pirate'

Sadly about 20 per cent of the buds seem to be rotten and slimy. Is this
my fault because I've been watering from the top (now changed to
watering the roots - just in case) or is the rot caused by something else?



This is a picture of the problem.

Oooh dear, really this is getting bad - following up my own post several
times

I found this pest sat on my lily plant. I zapped it and also sprayed
under the leaves but couldn't see any eggs/grubs.
