If my milk spray doesn't work I'll look into gettin some of that or somethin. Been doin stuff outside so I must have unknowingly carried them in recently
Yep. We don't like to go into the 'Garden Room' until we know we have no hitchikers with us. (Change clothes, wash hands....)

Feeling optimistic! I sprayed them top to bottom and the medium with 50/50 whole milk/water mix that I sat in the sun for like 15 minutes the day after I posted, seen one bug a few days later so I squashed it. Haven't seen another bug or new evidence of any since, but still looking just incase. I also found a lady bug in the house yesterday so I put it in veg tent because why not lol extra help if there are any bugs I don't see. I'll keep checking them, hoping the milk really did the trick

Well I missed some spots or somethin, or the milk trick didn't work as good as I hoped.. found a few more bugs. They're hard to see but I don't think it's a mega infestation cuz I've only seen a few. I lightly sprayed with h202 water yesterday but I dunno if I sprayed thoroughly enough or if my mixture was heavy enough. Gotta stay on em, hope to get rid of the bugs before they're ready for flower in about 3 to 4 weeks

you can use up to a 10% strength on plants, i would use between 5-8% strength and get it close when spraying, that stuff evaporates very quickly,

The mix I sprayed was like 20ml of 3% dollar store peroxide in a lil less than a half gal of tap water in the sprayer

well might have did something, your basically trying to change the ph surface of the leaf to keep it away.. a stronger mix would be more effective.
try to find stuff like this.

Found one a minute ago! Here's a couple pics, they're so tiny.. lately ive only seen them on the hydro plant, which is the most robust plant of this bunch (all 5 are cuts from same plant, the frosty unknown strain). The 4 others were transplanted into used promix and soaked wth just water because I didn't know what nutes were still in the old promix but they're coming back now after giving them veg nutes
