So just some super tiny thrips? Under magnification the abdomen is telling. Still probably have to bust out the spinosad to get rid of them. Last time I had thrips they were huge.Looks like it could be thrips.

Well, nobody is testing my buds and I firmly believe that the only thing spinosad residue does is show up on tests — I’m convinced it’s totally harmless but there’s still that pesticide stigma. I can try to treat the one pink grapes with a spray bottle and try to avoid the buds, but I obviously need to blast the tent.Nymph stage, looks like.
It’s tough to tell in their nymph stage, both are equal magnitude of gross lolIts an aphid what u do with that is up to you.
Id rather those than mites though.It’s tough to tell in their nymph stage, both are equal magnitude of gross lol

there’s one or two on most of the damaged leaves I checked, and I agree. Very glad it’s not mites. Just wish I could find my HVLP gun. There are enough thrips in there that I’m concerned about them maturing and swarming.How many you seeing
Could try washing them with 1:1 hydrogen peroxide/water. Spray the soil with it too supposed to kill eggsOkay so I pulled the plants out and blasted the 3 that are less mature, and blasted the walls of my tent, with a pump sprayer because my HVLP gun is MIA. On the other pink grapes that’s halfway through week 7, I just physically removed as many chewed on leaves as I could find. Probably not enough to eradicate them but I’m sure I slowed them down. I think one or two more treatments like this and they’ll be gone.
Im a big fan of the "nuclear" options myself, but, for thrips during flower the best thing I have personally found are minute pirate bugs. I was thoroughly impressed with how fast and how many of those little bastards they could kill.there’s one or two on most of the damaged leaves I checked, and I agree. Very glad it’s not mites.

I had an OGKB mutant from a pack of "citrus farmer" from Dungeon's Vault that fits that description perfectly. If not for that yield, she might still be around. Amazing flavor!Facts! Some of those mutants are the unicorns. From my experience they usually don’t yield the best but the quality is top notch. Chem D has some freaky mutant tendencies, OGKB obviously been the most popular, and plenty others. Just like fat girls mutants need some Love too lol
It looks like the larval stage of something. If you find out what, please post.found my jeweler’s loupe. Here’s some magnification. These fuckers are definitely damaging my leaves. View attachment 4909194
