Hello guys,
I'm new to the forum, already readed many threads here and other forums about some questions that I have about how to get rid of this insects. I even found, on the board-cannabis forum something related about it, but no specific solution for it.
I'm now in 15 days flowering of my blackberry cannabis, and from night to day appeared some tinny thin black bugs on it. One day there were 2 of them, one I killed, the other fell on soil and I removed the correspondent part of the soil. And then, next morning, there were more than 10 of them. I sprayed nicotine dissolved in water after that, and, for my surprise, after the solution dried on the leafs, a dozen more were there, in many parts, stem, leafs, flowers. They fly, have a thin tail like a micro scorpion, I don't have a good microscope to put the zoom'd image here, but I've got a little one that was enough for me to see this bug closely, it's black, has two white stripes on its antennas, moves quite fast and a little like a "snake" movement, it doesn't seem like a gnat fungus nor white flies. I've dealt with Leaf Miner Maggots a couple weeks ago, but it didn`t spread so I just removed the leafs that were affected and no bigger problems in the plant.
My grow is really modest, one plant only, for my personal use, and the light I use is sun light, the soil is basic, I feed it regularly with iguana juice grow/bloom and a little top bud org. fert. I try do raise it the most naturally way that I can, so when it's time to put her to sleep I put her in the dark. I've never used pesticides nor anything of the kind, the only thing that I used was this nicotine/water solution for being the most "organic" one that I could find, I don't know if the bugs were hided on the plant and got bothered due to nicotine and appeared, or if the nicotine didn't worked at all and they remained there and didn't gave a sh*t to it
Here are some pics. of it:
The plant looks healthy and ok, but from night to day these things triplicated their quantities all over it, they don't stay only beneath the leafs, they walk everywhere, fly around, I founded about 5 or 6 in the wall.
Any help and solutions would be really appreciated, thanks all since now.

do they harm the plant, is there anything I can do, or is not something to worry about?
