Bugs, eggs, turds, PICS! Help :(

Hey guys...

So yesterday I posted in regards to some nasty tiny larvae like bugs. I found one more today, but I have a few other problems as well which could possibly related? I read the entire huge bug problem post by grizzly which was GREAT but I still can't pinpoint what is going on with me...

These are taken from one of my Purple AK 47 plants....You will see a picture of her, and then some tiny white/cream colored things which look to be eggs....you'll see an attempt to picture a bug that I commonly find on the plant (related to the eggs/spots?)...and some dark spots and turd like remnants.

I really don't even know where to begin with these things. I use Neem Oil exactly how I should. But I get the idea its not doing that great of a job? Did another application today...any help is MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

Peace

My girls are being grown in 30gal bags, with Vital Earth's Organic Potting Soil mixed with Happy Frog's Jump Start Fert, and are being fed with Bio Bizz - Bio Grow and Superthrive. And of course water and lots of cali sunshine! We are on the coast of california

You definitely think thats the best way? Never had to use any pest combat before! These are not things I could invest in at a Hydroponics/Organics store, could I?
 
Sorry that this convos is on two different threads, because initially I thought it was two different problems. But our winged friend that I tried to capture in pic 5, is most definitely a winged aphid. I am prety positive these are their eggs and larvae as well....

that's the game of outdoor growing my friend.

this, is also another great example of why I only grow indoors.

I have complete control of my babies environment.. no bugs to worry about or anything else. ;)

Good luck though buddy.

peace.
 
There are several possibilities of indoor pests tho! But you're right, not like outdoors.

Well, we get a really really good coastal fog which dampens everything (makes it almost look like it has rained). Just went out, and spraying with water wouldn't do good until its dry since they are very wet at the moment and full of dew :) But since these are most definitely aphids, are any beneficials like lady bugs worth the investment, or anything good for this type of pest?

50/50 mixture. rubbing alcohol and plain water.
put it in a spray bottle and spray down the bugs rubbing them off gently with your finger tips. you can spray em as much as you want the bugs fall right off, and if you get bored while spraying the plant give yourself a little mist to the nostrils and huff on the alcohol!!

great remedy, i use it all the time.
