Thrips in the soil will work their way up the main stem eating a nice big hole out of the middle of it as they travel up the plant I`ve always assumed that it took many generations to tunnel up the plant over the space of veg and flower

Yes leaf that has had thrips eggs hatch and feed on them go white kinda like a burn or a pk deff but it normally starts out patchy

as the 1st step is normally a few flying ones laying eggs on the leaf once they get into the soil its a bitch

Cover your soil to stop them getting in rocks or perlite works

And spinosad kills them

We also spray with a mixture of things to kill them and I like to fumigate every 2 to 8 weeks depending on how bad it gets

There`s also a pill you can get that you put in the root ball

If its getting bad I`ll hit all the veg with something strong and systemic but spinosad normally knocks them back a lot

if there were a lot of thrips you'd be able to see damage on the leaves. they leave shiny looking lines on rhe leaves. not to mention they can fly and travel between plants quite easily.

personally I saw no signs of thrips. I'm leaning more towards over/under watering. you say you let it get dry before watering, how dry?

when you put it in flower you started feeding it flower nuts. but the plant was still vegging for roughly two weeks. This is what happens when growers switch nuts from veg to flower as soon as they start 12/12.

Next grow feed your girls veg nuts until you start seeing little buds form that is when you change your veg nuts to flower nuts and i bet you my left nut that you won't have this problem again
