Hey all i recently had a thrip problem, all I did was spray the foliage with neem oil (1ml/1l solution, I have the neem oil that mixes with the water) every 3 days, I also found where the thrips were coming from (on a plant were millions of thrip babies) so I sprayed on them every 2 days and in a week they are all gone, except larvea still growing in lavws of nearby weeds (I will be uprooting them and burning them). This is the damage the larvae cause to the leaves:
And this is what the larvae look like (took some out to show on here):
The problem of larvae can be sorted if neem oil is given with the water (be sure about how much to use) every month before flowering starts (neem stays in plant for 4 weeks after intake), this way thrips wont be able to reproduce if they eat the leaves and larvea wont survive in leaf problem solved
BTW this is how you can be sure that you have thrips:
Hope the post is useful
