I spray with neem oil but I'm almost 3 weeks into flowering now and have been told not to spray anymore. Gonna spray the soil with neem oil but not the leafs. Is there any better option? Here are pictures of what I found. And yes that white thing did move so I know it's a bug 🐛

+1 looks like thrips. They wont kill your plant if its in flower. They are tricky little buggers so once your grow is finished do a super deep clean. Spinosad rotating with pyrethrins twice a week cleared them out for me in 2 weeks. Pyrethrin alone didnt do the job and they were always back within a week.

Good luck! These buggers are easy to spread because they are so small and blend in on clothes and skin.

I'm starting week 3 on Thursday. Pink Kush and GG4. I have 250 plants going and these bugs have probably been around since the start when I bought from clone guy. I didn't notice them because damaged leafs are in the minority. Can I ride this out until harvest? Will they really spread that fast? Will they do.damage during drying? What about a deep defoliation? Day 21 is coming up I'm thinking of going extra hard on defoliation to reduce their population.

What about Sulphur burns?

Hang sticky traps to catch the adults that fly. Thrips have 2 cycles where they swarm around the canopy and if you can curb the adult population, then the reproduction cycle dwindles. Spray nematodes into your soil and spray around your house/yard as a preventative measure. Worst case scenario, thrips terps are in these days🤣 jk
Green Cleaner won't have the peppermint after taste Lost Coast leaves behind when spraying late into flower

Can you expand on the green cleaner stuff? I'm fairly new at this. I know I'm here with 250 plants but I am new so don't understand alot of the common names and products you might be familiar with. I'm thinking of getting lady bugs in my facility. Trailer Park Boys for the win haha
