Thrips

I appreciate your answers, my local grow shop is supposed to be getting cucumeris in today, when I called them a few days ago the salesperson told me that the ones they had seemed to have expired and that they should be getting more in later in the week. @Roberts As immediately as I can. @ernesttwwg I too dislike aphids, but they usually don't come in my home, raspberry bushes though, different story. @Mr_Weeds_Autos Amblyseius cucumeris are what I'll be getting once available. @GrowingGrannie Thank you for all the information, unfortunately ladybugs aren't in season right now so that's not an option, it is handy to know though. I prefer not to spray the foliage with anything especially during the flowering phase, just because something is organic doesn't necessarily mean it's safe or healthy. There is positive news, I haven't seen any in a couple days, and I've been looking pretty close, still gonna grab the mites though. Thanks again, you're all appreciated.

As soon as you see them, add the predatory mites. Amblyseius cucumeris and Amblyseius swirskii is the preferred predator for thrips control. They are tan-colored mites found on the underside of leaves along the veins or inside mature flowers.

As soon as you see them or notice they are chomping on your plants. I saw a few aphids and ordered 1500 ladybugs. Overkill? Maybe. But, I don't want aphids around.
