I got Thrips, they're multiplying and I'm losing control....!

Theiastarted grow question 5y ago

Some good tried and tested ways to get rid of thrips please. They have battered my Somango and are getting to my haze now. What's the risk to plants in late flower? Thanks.

Best thing to do is buy yourself 25 ladybirds (or more, or something similar) and let them loose in your garden. These little critters will devour them. Mix water with neem oil and soap together in a spray bottle, this will stop them being able to move on the leaves but if they've already taken over you will have to drench the plant, you could blast them off with a hose, be careful on the buds and then introduce some preditor insects your plant

So I tried the 24 hrs of darkness and still nothing. I keep defoliating her and she keeps growing. I’m running out of room inside. Would putting her outside in 4C at night and 15C during the day keep her in veg or kill her?.

Something invisible is eating leaves!Something is eating leaves! There are two big holes on the top leaves since yesterday. Also it looks like the sides of new leaves are eaten off. It seems like there are some micro yellow things on the eaten edges, but they are to small for me to see. What could it be?

Mites?Hi. What are these? Slow crawling, not fast or jumpy, about the size of this period . They swarm by the thousands after I water. Plants are doing great. I hit them with CannControl and Lost Coast, population has reduced a bit. I’m leaning towards soil mites. What do y’all think?
