Thrips make white bite marks right? I could like scrape that off, then nothing? What could that be? It's a younger auto, so I am not using any nutes....my shark widow I do, do you think it was a splash somehow? Over a foot away...I pour straight into dirt

Look for black specs (thrip turds) then you you will have thrips. I just got hit by thrips and I'm using spinosad.
Here is a pic of thrips leaf damage and on the underside you will see similar white spots which is from the thrips sucking juices out of the leaf tissue.

Well I was looking and seen some black specs but this my sound dumb, but I dno if it was the fan maybe blowing some soil around, it's not a watering day and the top is a little dry so that's why I thought that, but those white spots are in the leaf right? Bc honestly I took a tooth pic and kinda touched it and it somewhat scraped off, and underneath is healthy ....I just randomly seen that white mark, and wanted to make sure as early as possible, obv I'm sure you can tell I am new to this

Its probably perlite dust or some other form of dust which I wouldn't worry about.

Its good to have a variety of pesticides on hand for spider mites : Neem and avid, For thrips : Monterrey garden insect spray and a fungicide is also good to have. Outdoors add a few to the list;)

O trust me when I get to the store after work tomorrow, they better have their shelves fucking stocked! Like I said I have just had everything that can go wrong, go wrong (well not near everything lol just some shit)...I guess gotta learn sometime right? Do lady bugs work? I have seen a few posts on that as well (regardless still getting pestacides)

dont bother with the ladybugs. just make sure you treat them two days in a row if you think you have them, then weekly after that , then before flower dbl blast them again

thrips are like cockroaches...they run and hide when they see you coming...they hang out in between the nodes sucking the plants juices. They are very hard to find, so when you spray your plants with Monterrey, make sure you are focusing on getting in between the nodes really well, also hit the dirt, they will hide wherever they can . A plant can live its whole life cycle with thrips indoors but the plant will look like hell at the end. Outdoors , you wont notice any severe damage at the end (only the tracks on leaves). Bombing your indoor grow with pyrithren is a good idea also, its safe for plants...but like i said, if you dont get down in the nodes and treat they will survive another day

Thanks for the tips. I think I may have more than thrips...
Are these regular spider webs or mites?
