Thanks wompaa , do you think neem oil would be a good fix

Mind if I ask what's with the black grid work on the bottom?

Looks like thrips... you seeing and shimmering silver stains/smears on the legs too?

Neem oils w/ water will suffocate them.

Spinosad works too while in veg (I used this and first application took out the thrips.... spider mites are a different story).

Thanks Barry, that’s plastic mesh to stop any birds dust bathing or scratching around the base of the plants

Sorry I meant leafs, not legs.. I'm now envisioning someone looking at thrips through a microscope trying to see the legs my bad!

Insecticidal soap with added neem or canola oil at 10ml/L Hit well every 4 days for 4 treatments. Make sure to spray the top of the soil a bit too as the f'ers jump around.

Use some yellow sticky pads to catch any adult thrips flying around. Use a bio insecticidal of some sort to get rid of them faster and more effectively than neem oil and like OldMedUser says, spray the top soil a bit too for sure.
