When to start IPM

I have a few autos that are now a couple of weeks old and have a few nodes. I'm wondering when I should start an IPM regiment with them. I had thrips in my other tent which I knocked down with Spinosad so I'm thinking of using either that or Organocide once a week on them while they're in veg to make sure I don't have any issues in the new tent.

Any advice on timing, dosage, or other IPM suggestions?
 
Why not try neem oil cold pressed organic ?

Dilute to 1:9 ratio water being the dominate one ?

Re spray every three days.

If no pest once a week should work up to close time then no more neem. I go to cold water and dish soap make sure you spray them down good and under the fans I just got rid of aphids
 
I'd start the treatment as early as possible. Especially considering the problems you've had. You can also feed NEEM systemically allowing the plant to absorb it through the roots,, eliminating any issues with leaf burning.
 
I'll be doing a treatment later today before harvesting my other tent. I'll let you guys know how it goes, but it's preventative at this point so I don't think there will be any issues.

I haven't heard of using neem systematically like that. Do you just include it in their feedings or give them a small dose to the roots once a week or what?
 
You can add it to the feedings or do it as a stand alone. Either way, in my opinion it's a more effective method, but not as talked about. Good luck.
