definitely looks like bugs, YET, I see other issues like, MG soil with ff nutes,superthrive?,fish emulsions?

those are being bombed with crap for a little girl.
if it was ME, I would, pull plants out of pot, wash roots gentley, repot into a good soil or pro-mix, spray her down with some pyrethrin, sit back and wait.

a product i like to use called captain jacks dead bug does a good job, but just about any organic treatment will rid them. thrip life cycle is 10 - 14 days so spraying more than twice a week is unnecessary. they will be gone in a month probably if you treat them well enough.

it looks like you also have some nutrient problems going on too but its too hard to diagnose with all the bug shit (literally lol). i mean come on do you not see those things moving around? hell they gotta be flying by now!!!

also... stop using miracle grow soil from now on forever and ever, no excuses. http://www.growweedeasy.com/top-7-most-common-growing-myths

pyrethrin spray and a bomb will do it

pyrethrum is a carcenogen, i prefer not to use it. but if you like being lazy go ahead. i will tell you this it will not take them all out. they will become resistant. my friend has had mites for 3 years because he's to stupid to either stop growing and get clean plants and clean his place, or make a new veg room to put dip treated clones in and circulate out his bad plants from flower and clean the fucking place and reload when its safe. he bombs once a month, and then tells everyone his product is high quality and organic.... regardless of what point in flower they are in because he has multiple stages going at once....

i would advise you to just throw those fuckers out. you look like you're only about 5 weeks into the game. get rid of the soil, the plants, and clean clean clean. they're fucked up in the beginning of their life... not a good way to start out and hope to get good results in the end. sorry to say it but you want the truth right?

thrips are not mites, Anything you smoke is a carcenogen, but that's the first I heard of pyrethrum being one. BUT, It kicks the crap out of THRIPS!!!

yeah i understand but its one less carcinogen i have to worry about.

http://www.nrdc.org/living/chemicalindex/pyrethrins.asp

they break down in "full sunlight"... what about the parts of the plant that don't get full sun?? builds up indoors.... nah ill pass on that shit. when they say "suggestive carcinogenic" they're basically saying it is but dont want to shock the organic community and bash the pyrethrum brand. that's what happens when an industry of billions of dollars hold that kind of power and have to money to push around.
