i've never seen one on resin before so i assume they avoid buds altogether. it's always the shaded fan leafs they choose to munch on unlike spider mites that love to climb and spin a web from the top down.

there are worse things than the odd thrip in things you have smoked in the past be sure of that,

ive still got almost 7 weeks till harvest do u think they will be ok till then? its the same for me m8 its the thought of them in my plants and that i might end up smoking a few of them thats putting me off lol, but if they dont fuck the plants too much and wont severely damage my yield then i'd happily let them go this time as its mostly for sale anyway and when i chop i'd disinfect both tents and all equipment to eradicate the problem

Well a litre of plant v+ will cost you £12.50
Prythren costs you £10.99
32ml of floramite + 4ml of avid will cost you £21.99 but floramite dilutes at 1m per litre of water so you've 32 litres and avid is diluted at 0.25ml per litre of water so you've 48 litres of the most powerful stuff on the market which should last you well over a year !!

I'd use something that is tried and tested gary you want to be killing them with 1 or 2 applications or it ll turn into an expensive thing to control.

Gaz, I get thrips on a regular basis,(joys of growing outside in sheds), I've grown for 15 years, & the best spray I found wich will work & keep them at bay untill flowers finished, is from B&Q , it's in a litre yellow plastic bottle . £8 if I remember right, use as directed for tomatoes . I will run down shed & look up name in a bit. They will prob return next veg , but a quick spray & alls good for a season .

that is hardly pr0n lad.

looks like there is either a deficiency or they are getting eaten by something, see the spotty leaves, you sure you haven't got mites?
