Multiple critters on my flowers, arghhh.....

I seem to be having a bug issue that is kind of freaking me out as I can't be much further than a 2 or 3 weeks from harvest, there is shit all up in my nugs an I'm nearly positive it is all bugs and different kinds but what I don't know.
It's a small outdoor grow and just two plants(red dwarfs) and one is seemingly ok for now so I have separated them.

Basically I am seeing what I assume are eggs?
But I have black ones, white ones and two types of orange ones. Maybe they are the same but I doubt it. Some are on the top of leaves in my flowers and some on the bottom of the fan leaves leaves.

As for visible bugs, I can see some tiny white fly, a tiny reddish brown spider and this very small catepillar type fucker.

I have some pics and one shows the fluffy bugger that is circled and one is the spider but it's way out of focus, the rest is of all the eggs, I think.

Any way what can I do to save this so late into flower, I guess chemicals are out.

Any ideas guys and gals?

looks like several pests. white oblong ones on the leafs are thrips. I think those are aphids too but its hard to tell from pictures. Its been hot this last week so it could have come on quick if they were fine before.

You are too close to harvest for serious pesticide use IMO.

I would load up a spray bottle with 3% hydrogen peroxide and spray everything. H2o2 breaks down the outside of the bug and kills them on contact. including eggs. I would do this every other day till harvest. H2o2 only leaves oxegen and water when it breaks down. So entirely safe for humans.

Thanks for the reply, it has been real hot here this week and it does look as if they came out of nowhere.

I'm keen to do the H202 treatment but not sure where I can get it from in Spain, probably try at the pharmacy. I don't know, is it the supposed 3% food grade H202 that you mean?

mealy bug and aphids....power spray it without soaking the buds ,detail it with some neem...dont get it on the buds

I picked up some 3% h2o2 just now so I'm going to try that and hopefully I can pick up some neem tomorrow or something just in case.
Hopefully it will work as this was the better looking plant of the two.

I just treated a round of clones earlier in the week. Wipes out the bugs. Just remember to let plants dry before putting back under lights. I hope it works out for you. Pretty bad infestation there.

Cheers, I hope it works out too.
When I sprayed it there was even more bugs than in the photos but today all of the black spots on the bottom of the fan leaves are gone and a lot of the orange spot are gone and I can only spot 1 or 2 bugs. It's still messy but visibly a lot better so I only hope for it to improve with some more treatments.

If it comes under control what should I do about all the dead matter in my buds, can it be cleaned or is it best to just trim it all off.

You'll be able to trim everything off that's on leaves. If there are bugs in the flowers, you could try to get them out while you're trimming, but that's about all that can be done.

If you decide to use Neem or any other insecticide, to kill these bugs, make sure none of it gets on the flowers... it cannot be washed off and it will lend a bad flavor to your buds.

Isn't neem bad to use when he's so close to harvest?

I thought pyrtherin, spinosad, or BT is safe to use up until the point of harvest

H202 foliar!!! The scariest fucking thing about flies and shit is if they came from a mite hosted plant

Damn dude. After lookin at pics I can't quit scratchin
Feel for ya tho, looks bad
