My ladies have thrips!! please HELP

Hi folks, today once I opened the tent I noticed the tinest insects ever on the leaves, they are really small (lot smaller that a green fly) it looks brown but not sure as I'm color blind..

I ve two plants and the small one seems highly affected, I could notice just one on the big one instead..

What can I do? What kind of product would u suggest me to use? Is there a generic one in case I cannot identify the parassite?

I Need to rush buying something before it spread seriously

I've been trying to catch them on photos but nothing yet anyway I think u can notice the evident marks on the leaves..

Is there any fine webs at all? My leaves looked a bit like that from spider mites

Nope... cannot find any, and i check most of the links for parasite and i'm not sure they look like anything common.

Really small, really quick, been trying to catch them on photos for the last 15 mins but nothing, i can see all running away and hiding as soon as I do a bit of noise...

Don't want to smoke these little fellas..

Could be fungas gnats, those things are fast buggers but I dunno you haven't given too much detail. Try get a pic

Got them? What they look?

Could it be thrips?

Yeah I think u definitely hit the target..

More I read and look as thrips and more I'm agree..
And they leave also same marks that I ve..

So that means that it's a bad one cause they also attack and may destroy the buds..

For the moment I'm washing all the leaves and hope to reduce the number but I definitely need to get rid of them..

Any suggestion? Any specific products? Want to order something today so I can apply it ASAP

Yellow sticky traps. Mix and spray water with Polysorbate20/dish soap to make some insecticidal soapy water. It will destroy their outer shell.

Other than that first measure. Spinosad

Thanks @Wastei

I already did the washing liquid method today..

I checked in amazon.co.uk for spinosad but there are so many different products, anyone u would be able to suggest me in particular? Would like to avoid to get the wrong thing

Thanks again

Natural Guard Spinosad Soap

Time to visit your local garden store and ask them for a remedy!

Mosquito dunks,you put them in your water bucket.This kills the larvae.Spray and sticky traps kill the flyers.

@Leonida

Spinosad

page 4 and notice the life cycle, I apply it 7 days 7 days 9 days 9 days finally 10 days after that. Use a round up sprayer and drench the undersides of the leaves. Any chance you use Ocean Forest soil?

Here is what the bible says about recipes hopefully you can see as always thank you for your time and the best of luck

I used dr zymes eliminator when I had them. Spray everything. The plant will slow for a bit but it’ll be fine.

Hydrogen Peroxide 3%, 1 teaspoon per 8 FLoz. Used as a spray and/or a soil drench.

Citric acid "contact killer" followed by neem or sesame oil.

Why don’t you wanna smoke them? Extra flavor

Unfortunately i need to buy on the Europe market and seem that many of the products you guys suggest, they don't exist here.

Cannot find any spinosad product here, any other option? It's absurd but it does not seem that any of these products cannot by purchase on https://www.amazon.co.uk/.

I found this, which is specific for Thrips:

or


But not sure if these "predators can be then bad for the plant"

To create the spry instead i found this
Hydrogen Peroxide 3% --> https://www.amazon.co.uk/Care-Hydrogen-Peroxide-Solution-bottles/dp/B01HK5JCHE/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1E2KYSIMLKI8R&dchild=1&keywords=hydrogen+peroxide+3%+percent&qid=1604944569&sprefix=Hydrogen+Peroxide+3%,aps,254&sr=8-3
