though the coloring of the bug is different than my thrips i have, it still looks like a thrip....maybe someone else can chime in and confirm...but my money is on thrips...maybe a different species of thrips than i have

I had a leaky wand so I have some water spots and these plants are ready to harvest soon,

I circled the lil critter

I think you nailed it

I just watched a YouTube vid. On thrips , they recommended spinosad . I'll pick some up

Thanks

Def thrips my friend.
Zap those buggers. You should be good with some spinosad.
Happy farmin;)

the best for me imo, is bug bomb/fogger, then follow up with spinosad, then a repeat treatment of spinosad 10 days to 2 weeks later

also between runs good to clean/disinfect and fumigate the rooms

 

[labud]

I can bomb the rooms after harvest


How bout the veg. Room
.... don't wanna bomb/ nuke my veggies

Is there something systemic that I can use in veg to Break the cycle that is safe?

 

[Joe Fresh]

spinosad once, and then a repeat....you always need the repeat to kill off the babies that hatched after you killed the first heard


but just so you know, bug bmbs are just pyritherin(spelling?) and is safe to use onplants, i use at any time except when in full bloom, unless its an emergency....basically just suffocates the bugs dead

Ok bombs away ...if my house explodes it wouldn't the BHO

bug bomb is just a fogger, basically liek fumigating but its in a pressurized can...

it wont blow your hosue up lol



use with lights off, and ventilation off, let room soak in fumes for 4-6 hours, then turn ventilation back on to suck out fumes
