Can anyone identify these? I’ve noticed some tiny bugs on my plants which I’m assuming is the cause of the leaf damage 🤔 (sorry for bad lighting)

Sono tripidi! Solitamente e l eccessivo calore!!! Io ho combattuto molto con loro sono insopportabili!!! Prova ad abbassare le temperature e a fare spray fogliari con olio di neem ( se non hai fiori molto grandi) oppure prova con il sapone potassico

They are definitely thrips - but neem oil is fairly ineffective against them and can't/shouldn't be used on plants in flower - thrips are tenacious! Get some Spinosad or some Dr. Zymes Eliminator - both are organic sprays that can be used up to the day of harvest if need be (and you might NEED something all the way through harvest)... Good luck!

Yes these are thrips! You can use neem oil to kill them. Neem oil is 100% organic and reallt cheap. You need neem oil with a emulsifier because it is a oil and they usually don't solve in water without. So buy neem with a emusifier (you can also use green soap as an emulsifier). Make a solution with water and 3% neem. Spray the leaves (top and bottom) with this solution everyday for 1 week. And they will be all gone within a week! Neem is really usefull for all kind of bugs that are a threat to our beloved cannabis. When you have bugs that are eating your roots like gnats you can give this same solution (3% neem) during watering for 1 week and same results the bugs in the soil are gone! Happy Growing! 😋
