THRIPS! 1000% Kill em with a spray. I have read BTi kills thrips when their larva ingest the spores in the soil and when the adults Pearce the leaves surface with it coated on them. Or just spray em down with a generalized insecticidal soap. BTi is very safe and has been used for a long time with no issues. I would do this ASAP before they get into full flower, I would also treat the top later of soil with some of the pesticide till kill off any of the fuckers lingering in their. You could use soap and water as well and then rinse the plant off outside, but they may return. The other option is predator bugs who come in and eat the thrips, this is a good option for IPM or integrated pest management, IPM is pest control you implement before seeing any pests as you know they are common and likely to show up. using BTi preventively is a form of IPM. You can not use pesticides when using beneficial predators as it kills them too and the pests likely have more resistance to the compounds used then the predators. Also using yellow/blue sticky traps are great monitoring tools but not solutions.

Wie gesagt Es Könnten eine Art von Thrispen sein, ich benutze einmal die gelben Aufkleber sie fangen auch andere insekten um sie zu fangen und zur vorbeuge mache ich immer ein paar Beutel mit Raubmilben diese kann man bei amazon kaufen diese heißen Amblyseius cucumeris und sind gegen Thripsen und weich Hautmilben. Funktioniert wunderbar. es gibt auch Raubmilben gegen die Spinnmilben Amblyseius cucumeris oder Phytoseiulus persimilis. Ich kann dir nur empfehlen diese von Anfang an mit zu deinen Pflanzen geben

Also with your plant leaves turning yellow, be very aware of other factors. Make sure your watering, feeding and PH habits are correct, turn your lighting power down until you get this under control as well.

In the veg stage spray it throughly with insecticidal soap. It may take a couple of days worth of trying. Once a day. Until they are gone. Once you hit the flower stage it becomes much more sensitive and almost a lost cause. Unless you like smoking dead bugs.
