If you want to drive all the way down here again, I would love for you to take a look again. I will make dinner :) I just know they are still there.
Fumble you will know if you have thrips. Check your leafs for silver streaks and black spots (their feces). Tell tale sign of thrips.
I just looked and I can't tell what I see :wall: but I just know I saw them

What did you see? The bug? If so use a piece of tape and catch it with the sticky side. Then you can take a up close pic.

The silver stuff on the leaf is thrip damage. Black spots are their feces.

She might not know by the black specks, because We have sprayed since finding the out break. She had or has something. Either thrip Or russet.

How was your vacation? Didja get any exotic beans? ;)
Vacation was crazy fun! Didnt get any beans. Although I did actually meet some real deal rastas who had some ganja. However, it looked like some bammer!!! The police presence was super super heavy where we ported. The Jamaican police straight walk around with AK47's. Supposed to be "protection" for the tourists.

I've already scoped her plants. The two are so much alike it's hard to tell the differance. I was thinking russet because they have most of their body buried into the tissue of the plant like a male russet does. they seemed pretty active for a russet though. She treated it with worry free. If that has controlled them then it's thrip. if not it's russet.

you can see thrips with the naked eye. and the damage is different . so what is it, im in suspense now !
Can't see these without a scope. She is in week 5/6 of flower. the only way to kill the russet is with a strong mitecide.

you'll catch a few with the pest strip... She has a infestation. not nearly as bad as I had last season but, bad enough. I'd use 4bid4f but not 3/4 weeks out.

good Idea ! we still arn't sure if she has them under control. Her man scoped and said everthing is dead.. If so then it was thrip.

I am pretty sure I saw one of those damn two spotted again today too. fml! I have yet to have a successful indoor.

For pics, I can post with my phone only right now because my computer is effed up and I can't download any pics. You wouldn't be able to see anything from the pics though.

I haven't seen any of the black shit specks or grey streaks. @nuggs I will text you when I get mobile in the morning. @adower thanks for the offer :)

I believe FM uses the no pest strips.
