Aphid invasion close to harvest - stick or twist?!

Ottos_Jacketstarted grow question 5y ago

Very close (seen first few ambers on leaves) to harvesting my dwarf auto but have noticed I have aphids or thrips. Do I hang it out a bit longer or cut my losses before they take over?

Stick with it. If close to harvest, they won't affect your buds really, just suck the sap from the leaves.

One of these phenos isn't flowering (9 weeks in veg). Is it possible that the autoflower trait wasn't passed down? I won't have a 12/12 environment to test it for some time. Should I just trash it?

What are these bugs? Should I harvest?Can anyone identify these? They are blackish red. Some are more clear greenish. On another note, do you think the plant is ready to harvest? I generally don't like too much amber.

Pests Spider mites? Aphids? What would be causing these bites? Is it too late to continue using neem oil since they’re already starting to flower? Should I use BT spray instead? Thanks.

First autoflowers. They are on day 14. I think they look small. Can a super wide pot hinder growth? I have 8 inch deep 16 inch wide 3 gallon pots. Or Co2 levels are low in the tent causing small growth.
