Thrips

I'm not sure that you have thrips. Do you see a bunch of little black specks all a round the blemishes on the leaves? That would be their shit, and it's a tell tale sign of thrips. The blemishes from them will look almost silver under your lights.

I do see black specs under leaves. Although not as much around blemishes but more evenly spread around bottum of affected leaves.

Captain Jack is what you need to rid yourself of them... expect to get thrips at least one or twice a year...it happens... I got rid of them and didn't have.com issues for 6 months.... got new soil to mix up and bam got thrips again.. my dog plays outside and the snuggles with me and I go in grow room to do some work, bam trips yet again... it sucks but easily the easiest post to get rid of...

Got the spinosid. Seemed to wirk. Don't see any new problems. Thanks guys. Will reapply in ten days or so.

Spinosad hardcore anti thrip, although I am reluctant to spray it indoors even though it is OMRI approved it is still a toxin right. It also seems to have wiped out my beneficial soil mites.

It's a bacteria.
