I think they are aphids but would like someone with some more knowledge to help me out. Thanks.
I was thinking that too, someone just said spider mites. I’m in Canada and a lot of the sprays I find are American. This is the stuff I have, I assume this works? LolI can't see those dark spots, looks more like 6 legs in the pictures.
If I had to pick, they look like green aphids

Yeah I’ve been looking pretty hard for it. The plants are outdoors. Gonna hit the with a spray around sun down. Then you suggest a leaf wash? Morning? or wait till tomorrow evening? and I assume this is just a rinse with water?I’ve used that before, just make sure to coat both sides of the leaves, stalk, and topsoil. (Remember to do this as the lights go out to avoid burning)
I usually recommend a leaf wash the next day or so just because it’s an insecticide with chemicals (Also with the lights off)
Here in Canada we don’t have any spinosad products, as the government banned the use of it. Wish I could find some myself as I hear its a miracle product!

Ahh the great outdoors! At sundown works best, just make sure it’s a time with no direct sunlight and you’re goldenYeah I’ve been looking pretty hard for it. The plants are outdoors.

thanks for the reply! Cheers
I appreciate the help GA, I’ll be more thorough with spraying it.Ahh the great outdoors! At sundown works best, just make sure it’s a time with no direct sunlight and you’re golden
I’d suggest a wash at the same time but next day, just use the hose with a sprinkler attachment (or your thumb) to spray them down lightly. When you finish, give them a light shaking to get all the excess water off.
Remember you might not get them all in one round, and may need another application. Hope this helps some!
