This is right on point!This isn't rocket science here. All you need to do to CONFIRM thrips is look with a glass. The thrips will be visible. If you start treating exotic deficiencies that don't exist you might as well throw the plant away.. It's not that hard to grow...it's a weed that use to grow unchecked all over the country. All without anyones help.
Deficiencies can happen, but are not the norm.....by far more damage is done overtreating a misdiagnosed deficiency. Anybody that uses PH balanced soil with a basic fertilizer will be able to grow big plants most likely without seeing a deficiency of any kind during the entire life of the plant.Manganese and the like, are TRACE elements. Not much required and is usually supplied in plenty with any basic all around fert.
Thrips are very easy to confirm...Just LOOK!
Option B....guess at something it doesn't have and give it something it doesn't need and fix the problem YOU CREATED later.
I see people misdiagnosing 95% of the time.
People saw one guy had a true case of thrips now its the cause of everything wrong with everyones plants.
If your going to grow dope, have a magnifying glass!
Have some basic tools, and do some research.
Otherwise u will have 30 different diagnoses for 1 problem.
Happens all the time.
