Pretty sure baby thrips. I got sliver stuff on some of the leaves.

I have some insecticide coming hopefully that will do it. Doesn't help i put my greenhouse on a ant farm. I read ants keep thrip predators away and they can thrive.

ants eat aphid poop, they love plants with aphids, ants spread plant disease/pests to other plants, and smell funny when burned by pouring molten tin into their ant hill-for the artsy sculpture result.
I hope you get it under control before they get out of control

Just snip the stalk below the cotyledons.
