Thrips right?

So, i work in OK. 6 months at this job, Start up grow. I basically run 2 container grows a veg and flower container, this is in the flower container that i flipped to flower about 8 days ago. I was inspecting plants for Herms after i saw our Ghost Train Haze has Hermed. Now i find these little shits, and I am near certain they are Thrips yes? the damage looks right, and the little fuckers look right. We just got some IPM in and i think im going to spray the piss out of the plants today before lights out, especially any with this damage. Any advice is welcome. edit, posted this in BUGS. cant figure out how to delete it out here totally. if any admin wanna delete this one thats fine.

Bust out the spinosad, citric acid, or something.

Blue Sticky Traps too.

Blue Sticky Traps on Amazon

so citric acid is good for thrips as well huh. i know its one of the main ingredients in our IPM. I also have food grade CA granule around too, we had some mold pop up where we keep defoliate until its dry enough to burn. Burned it all and hit that area with the citric acid for prevention.

PureCrop1... i cant express enough how good this is. You can even spray it with lights on (although i dont spray anything at lights on or in full sun.) but it works amazing.

It's not just the ingredients they use. It's how they process these ingredients to make a product that is very special. The oils in this are broken down into a smaller molecular form making them significantly more effective aganist pm,pests, and less likely to have issues with burning your plants. than just buying these ingredients independently and "emulsifying" them together. I am no rep for PureCrop1. I am a testimonial. I use this in rotation with zymes and a peppermint/bronner's soap foliar. Do your homework on this watch this video below. It's really great!

I would personally recommend Method1 pps.
If you don't mind the smell of PineSol. Because that's what it smells like.
It's a plant based spray.
You can use it up to bloom, right on the plant. It's active for a while and the smell fades. The essential oils wash away with a foilar wash.
I've run off every pest that's managed to find my room, even mites that a friend gave me with a clone.
People make jokes, because it is a natural, plant based product, but I've never found anything that competes.
When everyone is complaining in the summer heat and moisture about their WeedGnat infestation, I am not having issues, because I can literally spray the surface of the soil to kill the larvae where they hide.
But it does smell like the hospital clean up crew just came through when you spray...

did round of Athena IPM already, Citric Acid, and a few herb oils. it surely kills on contact, tested it before i sprayed. fanned leaves up sprayed bottoms, sprayed tops, sprayed all. had already mixed some into one res to kill anything in peat pods and Pargos. going to spray them again today. and Neem the mothers to boot. Considering some Predatory Cucumeris for my home grow, spotted fliers in there last night and im like 4 weeks or so from finish at home. Anyone used A. Cucumeris effectively. Im just glad they werent some horrible Aphid, I brought a outdoor plant in once years ago. It brought in an infestation of Dock Aphids. FUCK those things, they are the Devil.
