Hey,
noticed some weird symptoms on my babies and was wondering if it's caused by thrips. Been seeing some tiny whiteish bugs running and jumping around on the leaves. Pics of what the lower leaves look like atm.
Is it thrips and if so what would ppl reccommend besides spinosad(dont have any good sources for it).

What i've read about so far about thrips:
1) Heard about 120F water kills them good off the plant in 15 min, but they still would stay in the soil, no ?
2) Heard neem oil works good aswell.
3) The funkiest i heard about is blending a garlic claw and 1/4 of an onion in 1 l of water and then spraying it on.
4) Also a sand layer works good for stopping the newborns from getting to the surface.
What has worked best for you guys and what is the greenest way to get rid of them.
Was thinking of doing a combo between those results, but wanted to ask you guys first for any good techniques.
Tl;dr Fast tiny white hoppers, thrips or not ?
