Can I treat thripes during flowering?

Can you treat for thripes 2 weeks into flowering? I've treated once already with Monterey Organic garden spray with spinosad but I'm not sure if 1 treatment is enough. I also have Diatomaceous Earth but I haven't used it yet. Would I only spray the leaves or the entire plant?

Hi try searching Google for amblyseius cucumeris, organic beneficial predators that eat thrip by the shit tonne, some stores do them in handy sachet size, also hypoaspis miles for the eggs larvee etc (these also do fungus gnat larvee) a couple of lady birds, no spraying plants, hope this helps

Spinosad work very well for thrips, you can spray up to 2 weeks before harvest.

Yes! Lots of IPM are spray the day of harvest! Thrips suck. Spray Dr Zymes three times a week in flower! And use yellow sticky traps and diatomaceous earth! ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

Spray everything but the buds. Use a cloth and wipe everything down if spray is not an option. In my personal opinion anything sprayed on the buds effects the end quality and flavors.

how bad are they any photos? i personally dont like spraying anything on my buds during flower!! but old mate could be onto something id say very diluted mix though would make sense and a fogging spray of it once or twice a day maybe every other day see how it reacts?

With a little dawn soap mixed in water. Won't hurt your buds but the thrips may not like it. Cheers
