im growing outdoor, first year notill and I’ve had a good grow so fare, now that my plants are in week 3 of flower I find these little black or dark coloured bugs on the under side of the leaves. While I was looking over my plants I found some kind of eggs on the leaves as well. looked like something was spread on the leave. I sprayed captain jacks dead bug brew on 3of the plants last night, I was a little hesitant about spraying them being 3 weeks into flower so I didn’t really soak them like I probably should have. I went down to water them this morning and I still found some on the leaves. I need help, any help

Please send some pictures.
Spraying your plant in flower is tricky especially if you using strong stuff like neem oil etc...this should really be the last resort but if the need is really there, then i would mix up 1 teaspoon of neem oil, 1/2 teaspoon of washing liquid, 1/2 teaspoon of wetting agent in 1 litre of water. The spray targeted areas and try to avoid spraying on your flowers...if neem oil gets in contact with buds, you might leave a permanent unwanted taste/smell!
You can, you just have to be very very very careful.
Good luck!

it depends on the bug but i found nothing to be more effective then predator bugs like ladybugs. no spraying and praying just nature doing its thing. also its an outdoor plant it will have bugs the real question is how much damage is being done.
some pesticides take time to work and multiple applications.
