I was thinking that too, someone just said spider mites. I’m in Canada and a lot of the sprays I find are American. This is the stuff I have, I assume this works? LolI can't see those dark spots, looks more like 6 legs in the pictures.
If I had to pick, they look like green aphids

I’ve used that before, just make sure to coat both sides of the leaves, stalk, and topsoil. (Remember to do this as the lights go out to avoid burning)
I usually recommend a leaf wash the next day or so just because it’s an insecticide with chemicals (Also with the lights off)
Here in Canada we don’t have any spinosad products, as the government banned the use of it. Wish I could find some myself as I hear its a miracle product!

Yeah I’ve been looking pretty hard for it. The plants are outdoors. Gonna hit the with a spray around sun down. Then you suggest a leaf wash? Morning? or wait till tomorrow evening? and I assume this is just a rinse with water?
thanks for the reply! Cheers

Bug b gone, works for canadian bugs! Lol! Been a few years but pretty sure you can still buy here. Or can make own sprays up, google it. Or youtube! I like de with a little canola oil and dish soap. But many ways to irradicate the little bastards! Be careful if going homemade, very little oil needed. Kill them all! Bugs not plants! Done both! My guess is russett mites, only a guess, all look same to me.

Ahh the great outdoors! At sundown works best, just make sure it’s a time with no direct sunlight and you’re golden
I’d suggest a wash at the same time but next day, just use the hose with a sprinkler attachment (or your thumb) to spray them down lightly. When you finish, give them a light shaking to get all the excess water off.
Remember you might not get them all in one round, and may need another application. Hope this helps some!

I appreciate the help GA, I’ll be more thorough with spraying it.

I’ve had good success with limonene in the past, like 10ml per gallon or something - I’d Google that though, if you use too much you’ll melt the leaves too.
neem oil is good, last year I bought some lost coast plant therapy for flower and it worked well, didn’t effect the taste at all from what I could tell.
