    Thrip attack!

    Thrips are incredibly easy to get rid of. I got them 2 years ago and sprayed them once with spinosad and knocked them dead. I caught mine early though This looks advanced so I would spray multiple times. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Monterey-Garden-Insect-Spray-with-Spinosad-LG6135/206338221...

    I never knew trimming could be so tiring

    Yeah imma be in trim jail soon. Spent the past 5 hours cutting down plants and big leafing. What a pain in the ass. And i had my boy helping. Probably 60lbs wet. This is made worse when you have allergies. Itchy skin, itchy throat, itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing.

    Supplementing CO2 and DWC

    Anyone supplement CO2 and run DWC? How do you balance the need for higher heat and maintain proper water temps? I have a 1/3HP chiller but its expensive to run and hard to calculate costs since the draw is so variable. I guess I could try a different growing style

    What are these white specs

    Usually with thrips you notice the leaf damage and frass before you notice the thrips. They are good at hiding and usually hang out under the leaves or between veins. I dont see any frass or leaf damage I do see patches and circles of honeydew which is indicative of aphids or scale.

    What are these white specs

    I mean could it possibly be dust or debris? I got white specks sometimes. Sometimes its debris. Sometimes its drywall dust if I was messing around with rhe ceiling. Does it brush or blow off?

    What are these white specs

    That 2nd picture in your first post. What is that red thing on the center vein on the center finger leaf? Looks like scale. I also see spots of honeydew which is common with scale. You notice any ants?
