[dean]

as per the title, those bastards are starting to feast on my hard work.
40 days in OF and in flower now
i used Argo CFO Vermicast when i first saw spots on the photo's vegging in the same room.
but today i saw the little pricks on my auto's
i have a USB camera and seen one jerk happily munching on my shit. aaargh
anything i can use during flower? or just keep manually killing them until the vermicast takes affect?
temp and humidity are all in range with a few spikes
no over or under watering
anything other info you need to help me out?

Thrips are an uphill battle in flower. Either pluck the leaves, scrape them off, or you can spray with a hose or pump sprayer to get them off. After and along with that, you can use something like lost coast plant therapy in flower daily. It's basically vegetable wash but plan on washing your buds when you chop. Gonna have to put some time in for like 10 days....

ok, thanks for the advice.
where do they come from?
the soil i bought or just the environment?
i have a very clean and sealed shed i grow in, the only thing different this grow was the heat.
i didn't want to use the A/C because of the low humidity so i left the door open to outside. would that be the issue?

They generally come from the environment around but running some bti through soil never hurts as a preventative
