Thrips have made for slow growth and i believe maybe even given the plants Spotted wilt disease. The Mites were simple compared to these dang things. Can a Marijuana plant get tomato spotted wilt disease?
 
the black spots are from the thrips! use a pyrethim for them! like dr doom fogger or something! and get a $12 of fox farm no bug me spray from the local shop, thrips were easy for me compared to these nasty lil reproducing non stopping freakin mites, god i hate them (aka the BORG) good luck also get a hot pest no strip and some mosquito dunks for your medium for the larvae thats in there! good luck keep us posted
 
also if its thrips they thrive under hps ,,so make sure you clean up and around the lights

are they still in veg ? if so you can dunk them upside down in a bucket of water ,and try and shake of as many as possible then use a neem oil/liqued soap and water sprey ,,soak on both sides of the leafs thourhly ,then apply every other day for a week then 2 a week for 2 weeks ,and hopefully they will have gone :peace:
 
when i first noticed them a few years ago i thought i had snails on my plants lol cuz of the tracks they leave, all those black spots are the poop though, hella nasty!!! i hate those things!!!

just got my arsenal in the mail! 1 oz of floramite and 1 oz of azatrol! also going to the store right now to stock up on 99% alcohol! ill be putting plants in my room soon, so im about to also fog the room with some tr attain fogger!

i hate mites and i hate thrips whos wit me lol
 
If anyone hates them it's you Albino....you hve had some real tough luck with them.... I hope your arsenal takes care of the problem this time....
 
I just found out I have them as well. I am thinking of trying a 50/50 iso/water topical, a heavy soap topical and dia earth on the soil. Don't know if it will work... But the dia earth did rid me of knats.
 
SMOKING JOEyes they sell them by the 1500's in a lil cup at sos! thats a orchard supply store! or just get them off the net!!!! imo i didnt like them they all died off soon and i didnt notice them on the plants eating!! a pyrethim spray will knock them down i had thrips real bad about 6 months ago and i used fox farms no bug me spray and it killed them on contact!!!!!! and then make sure u do a root feed with something and maybe some mosquito duckns to take care of the thrips larvae in the medium!

HAMSTER LEWIS ya pests suck! im working hard right now though to conquer them ill post it in my thread in a little bit when im done, im just taking a quick smoke break, ill have pics of the updats in a little bit!
