This things ever in the soil to?
anything like this silver streaking ?spots ? DarthFader.My experience, just had an entire flower room get infested with thrips. I noticed the silvery specs on leaves and ID'd the thrips with my microscope early on in the infestation. Sprayed with neem, pyrethrum, used DE on the soil, all that stuff did was maybe slow them down some. Basically didn't do jack shit to get rid of them.
Anyway im mid way through flower and i walk into my room 2 days ago much to my horror a couple of my girls have just been completely raped by these thrips. Im talking within 24 hours it went from leaf damage to full on leaf death. At this point i sprayed entire room down with spinosad, and im very glad i did it. I reckon if i had of left this any longer i would have lost entire room. Luckily the main damage is only a couple but the entire crop is undersize by like 20-30% i would guesstimate. The root damage caused by larvae has also pre yellowed a number of my plants just like what fungas gnats do. If your familiar with nitrogen levels in your soil and your getting early pre yellowing around day 35 then check your soil your going to see hundreds of these vile critters in there
DO NOT let these thrips get hold of your room. Its like they build up slowly over a period of time and then POW, they just takeover. I'll post results of spinosad trreatment as they come to light but i know its working already seen dead thrips
