If my colas get to wobbling I manage a net over them. It won't be long before they flop. I have a stretchy one that clips to each corner tent post.

I found this in the Plant and Problem solver in my signature:
Thrips
Thrips are really tiny, but can be seen by the naked eye. Some may have wings and some may not. Thrips reproduce rapidly, especially in tight places. That is what makes them hard to get rid of when using pesticides. The suck the sap right out of your plant with there piercing mouths, which makes the leaves look like they turned white. You can tell when you have thrips by taking a look at your leaves, the leaves will look as if there chlorophyll have been ripped right off the plant. Plants that are damaged can't be healed thus making it harder for the plant to absorb light. SO if left untreated the thrips will kill the plants. Damage also can be seen by the greenish black specks of there poop they leave on leaves. Also the plants will show silver patchs from scar tissue. Depending on the severity at first, thrip damage might look like spider mite damage untill it increases in damage and then thrips case is for sure when you see the greenness replace with big parts of white.
One good way to repel thrips for those growing outside is to use garlic, this is a good way to keep them away before you get them. The color yellow attracts the thrips and should be advised not to have this color around your grow.. If you already have them using neem oil, and or lady bugs can get rid of them. If the infestation is bad then you need to use biological solution like, pyrethrin-like insecticides. Picture 8 shows thrips damage.
Other Products include:
Chemicals
Hot Pepper Wax,Safer Yard & Garden Insecticide (which can be used right to the day of harvest),GNATROL( used in hydro in the water as well as soil),Doc's Neem Pest Soap,Safer Sticky Stakes,TR-11000 Pyrethrum.

I hope it helps.

I have been doing a lot of research on thrips the last days, and i def dont want to spray anything in this stadium!
so i took a few hours this night to take the plants one by one to have a close look and squeeze the fuckers to dead on the leaves and stems!
i probably missed a lot of them but the plan is to repeat this proces a few times next week!
At the same time i try to keep the temperature as low as possible, this will help to slow down the reproduction
i also hunted for ladybugs today, i found 14 of them in an hour!...those little friends will help me hunting the thrips as well!
and they are just funny little animals
below one of the terrorists
with all the misery you would nearly forget there beautiful flowers in the making
Cheers

day 30 flowering stage
I think i can finaly say that the thrips problem had been solved!...so glad with that!!!
And the girls are impressing me with some serious frosty bud sights
i never really talked about what kind of feeding i got the lady's on going...
the veg stage i gave them hi-pro terra in combination with plagron power roots...ph- to 6.0
The tap water where i live is super clean, so dont need to dechlorinate it...or at least i dont take the effort!
sinds the flowering stage has started i gave them hi-pro terra for 2 weeks more, than i switched to plagron algra bloom i.c.w power roots for the first 2 weeks flowering.
sinds week 2 flowering they are on the algra bloom in combination with plagron green sensation
all good here
Looking pretty fresh to me..
welcome to the jungle......

Thanks brother and
!!!...I'm so stoked with this run already!...I think i finaly got the feeling of their needs...sinds my first run in this room was kind of a struggle!
Had some early issues with the water gifts, and due to that came a ph problem.
It didnt helped eather that they were autoflowers so this altogether cut pretty hard in the yield

day 36 in flowering stage.....
over the last two days i didnt waterd the lady's and let them kind of dry out for one time.
this should be the last measure against the thrips and fungus gnats, they were already nearly gone!
as you can see the thrips damage on the leaves luckily isn't to bad!
All good here!
Have a great weekend everyone
