insecticidal soap should do the trick. i buy it at Home Depot for about $7 for the pre mix solution. GL

100 percent organic? most pyrethrin based sprays have one chemical involved.
Pyganic if you have the money and must have 100% organic.
The weaker concentrations are pretty affodable but you use more of course.
I think last liter of pyganic I bought (only liter, I use riptide now, domyownpestcontrol.com) cost me damn near 2 bills for the 5%
I get a half gallon of riptide for 100 bux from the l link above.

I'll look into that. Just dumped $300 on new fans and another light. Trying to go cheap if possible.
Organic isn't too much of an issue for me i just don't want to be dumping chemicals on 40+ plants in my tent. My asthma will not approve. lol

Hey stew.

Unfortunately they don't look like aphids to me.

They look more like thrips larvae.

Aphids are oval.



Do a few image searches though to confirm.

If so SPINOSAD is the way forward.

You are 100% correct sir. thank you for correcting me.
My friend just gave me a recipe for an organic solution.
I just asked if it will work for thrips so.... we'll see. I fuckin hope so.

This is what i get for thinking i was not going to have a problem...
First real pest issue... Fuckin blows that most of the plants are affected. Just the Blue Dream really that's not.

I just don't wanna spend a whole shit load of money right now. I just dumped $300+ into the tent for new fans and another light.

I swear thrips would survive a nuclear holocaust.

Trust me when I tell you SPINOSAD for the win.

So much so that I always keep a bottle of MONTERAY SPINOSAD just incase.

Last time I ordered it I payed $18 for a quart with $18 to ship it to the UK.

When I had a thrips issue I sprayed everything 3 days apart for 9 days.
