That's most likely a thrip.... depending on how close you are to harvest, grab yourself some Spinosad or Dr. Zymes Eliminator - both are organic, both can be applied right up to harvest whereas neem oil cannot... Good luck!

Looks like a thrip as GrowingGrannie said and easy enough to sort out

Mimosa Evo
Hi, has anyone grown Mimosa Evo, by Barney's Farm outdoors? If so, how did she do? I grow in pretty high mountains in Northern Cali so I need a hardy plant. And when did yours finish in the fall? Where did you grow her? Thank you!

Additional light at night in greenhouse???
Hi guys. This is my first grow. I am growing in a 5x5 pvc greenhouse that I covered in polyethylene 6mil plastic. I am growing autoflowers and I only get 12 hours of sunlight a day. I have a viparspectra 1000w light, is it possible to use this light in the greenhouse at night?

Outdoor growers: fim/top?
I want to make sure to clarify that this question is only for outdoor growers with a photoperiod limited solely by the nature of the changing seasons. Should I even bother with fim/topping? Is the juice worth the squeeze? Let me know your thoughts, or even better, results

outdoor auto blooming
My autoflowering Purple queen is almost ready for harvest, I don't know if I should keep her under hot direct sunlight for the last week before cutting as I know it damages the THC. Temp here reaches 32°C and I am afraid to damage the final product with too much sunlight .

Can I plant an auto seed directly into a raised bed?
If you only had two options with a sativa autoflower seed you germinated: 1. Grow it indoors in a cup or other small container for a week or two, then plant it directly in a raised bed outdoors? OR 2. Plant the germinated seed directly in the ground outside and keep it safe?

Twisted outdoor (established) leaves - Due to cold temps?
Twisting leaves outdoors would be attributed to the consistently negative (celsius) overnight temperatures the plants have been experiencing, yes? we're starting to average -2 - -5 overnight, they've been troopers so far but it seems the temperature is beginning to have an effect

Best environment?
This is my first grow. Living in the UK and we're just heading towards Autumn and by the time harvest arrives, it'll be the beginning of winter almost. How best can I grow this strain without artificial lighting? Greenhouse? Windowsill? Just outside? Any help would be appreciated

What size pot for final home
I am ready to transplant this girl. I have a 7 gallon plastic pot or a 30 gal tote from big lots I can drill holes in. Is the 30g overkill considering I only have 2-4 weeks until flower or will a increase in yield make it worth it? It has been in a 5g outdoors for 3 weeks.
