LOL!
I hate them also.
I get them occasionally and also have to deal with fungus gnats often.
I have been lucky with spider mites. Only had them once a long time ago and lost the battle.

Thank you very much !
I hate thrips.
Last year it was spider mites but outdoors this season it's thrips and they suck lol ahahah get it?
I was out of here after my last post but had to post one more thing.
Was reading about thrips just now and came across something that surprised me.

Scientists in Japan report that significant reductions in larva and adult melon thrips occur when plants are illuminated with red light.
^^^^^
I never knew this, wasn't sure if you guys did. Google it, seems like it's on some legitimate sites IDK.
I'm going back to the other side.
Have Fun!

hey @Cannabis.Queen ,i thought i had thrip larvae in my soil a few months back(turned out to be springtails) before i realized they were springtails,i searched the forum and found members using 10-15ml of spinosad x 1gal of water.use that as a soil drench and that spino bacteria will destroy those larvae before they make it up your plant.thrips lay their eggs in leaves,stems,buds but when hatched they drop to the soil.you prolly knew all this but thought i'd throw it out there.gl

For real your plants were stolen? Damn. WTF....
Was gonna say, some "Capt Jacks Dead Bug" will kill em. Spinosyn is the key ingredient to killing Thrips. Had them last year.
Yup I have 9 plants and 4 were stolen oct 1 and I know who did it and I'm getting a restraining order against them so they can't come see their father in the summer :3

Edit, he is 22 I'm 24 and the father is idk and don't care but I know that he knows his kid ducked me over and pretending nothing happened

Damn, the dude your dating kids stole the shyt?
No, he stole them.

I would never date him I'm engaged an dhave been for a year lol

He was a family friend I grew up next to, moved to his mums and every summer he visits his drunk f a dad; my neighbor..

He had I guess a crush on me and I finally set him straight saying nothing would happen.

He tried to force himself on me and I pushed him away and said if he came near me again I'd call the cops.

He stayed away.... until oct 1 and spent hours in my yard cutting the leaves off plants with an exacto knife and then.. lol dug up my 10 gal equivalent plant from the ground, dragged her ass den my street and smashed the rootball on the corner because he didn't want me to be able to clone her.


Men...

@Cannabis.Queen try some beneficial nematodes for the soil or you can just use diatomaceous earth cover your whole plant don’t water for a couple days then u can water and the DE has silica which helps you plant build a better immune system sort of speak make sure u do t water when u cover it or it won’t be active when you water it it no longer becomes effective but make sure u use food grade DE
