i dont see any thrips damage on your plants 99.9% theyāre springtails a very important part of any organic soil and they will not harm your plants

98% of the time its springtails and they are very beneficial, 1% of the time theyāre hypoaspis miles even more beneficial and the remaining 1% may be something detrimental but i cant see the actual bugs get close ups please as suggested.

Im not seeing any bugs in your picture, Are you able to get a closeup on just one bug and circle it. They could be Mealybugs, spring tail, soil mites
