I would use a couple organic bug bombs in the flower room.
Or at least some Cheyanne pepper spray every few days for a couple weeks.
This should do the trick.
There is nothing wrong with spraying your plants with organic stuff.
And organic's work better then nothing.
Just break the breeding cycle,that is the most important.

What do you think about this?

I don't have my camera back yet so I can't post a picture, but I have the same EXACT white spots but no sign of bugs or eggs.

You think it is a pH problem? The plants are growing just fine in spite of whatever it is.

Best,

Also, what about going over them lightly with a compressor/blow gun before ya harvest. It might blow off some of the good shit, but it should also get rid of quite a few of those little buggers. Hell, at this point its worth a try right? How many weeks till harvest? If you still have 5-6, keep with the chili recipe a bit longer man, just make it light. Like I said earlier, I have heard mild soap and water works also, on mites, not sure about the thrips, but i'd like to hear from someone else on the soap and water before saying to go with it. Again you'd wanna keep it to a minimum. I dont know, its a thin line for me between smoking bugs, or smoking soap hehe. Either way, live and learn bro. Make the best of what you have grown though ;)

hi there Blackrock i have been sprayin the soil daily with the chilli and rubbin some fan leaves to.. but to be honest im gettin so so so fed up of doin this.. on harvest well i would say 3 will be ready in 4 weeks.. and the other 2 plants in a following 2 weeks.. but if the thrips presist i will be checkin the trichomes and harvest early as i can.. i dont think i will go with the soap but thanks anyway on the info... i think when i harvest i wil cut all the big fan leaves off first and put straight in bags then i will shake the plant or plants in the hope some will drop off.. allso just befor i harvest i will expect the plant and kill what i can... i mean killin them with my hands is jus discusting even tho i use gloves still its not nice.. i think that seeing them in my harvested bud will bother me alot more then smokin them as they are only small and the dont even go in my mouth jus burn and turn to ash.. n if i have some wonderfull bud then i wont give a fuck.. just hope i dont see any.. if any1 has anymore surgestions on how to get rid of the thrips now and after harvest i would love to hear them.. im just so pissed coz my last grow went yellow quick in flower my girls didnt look to nice.. so this grow i was determined to keep them greener lewarn from my mistakes.. well i did watered them better used fets at the right time right strenght everything was great.. even now i only have a few yellow bottom leaves on my girls.. but them bastard thrips have spoiled most leaves with the silver marks they leave.. o well there is allways next grow.. allso just b4 harvest im goin to my nearest hydro store and im goin to get the right sprays and such neem oil wot not.. then befor i start my next grow im gonna sterilise every pot the whole grow tent and everything involved with my grow room so fingers crossed my next grow wont go this way.. i will allso use pest control from the start of my next grow so to prevent them buggers ever comin.. my local hydro store sells red spider mite preditors so if i get any spider mites im gonna get em.. them fuckers may have gopt away this grow .. but now i now what to look for all the signs n im gonna fuck them up... anyways ive gone on to much... thanks for every1s help :thumbsup:
