Kafka Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 (edited) I have just lifted my Blue Widow which is potted in co-co and noticed about 20 very small, white bugs which jump. They were on the plastic tray under the pot. They look quite young and can only spell trouble ! I checked my other 2 plants which are in all-mix and they seem to have no signs of infestation. Any ideas of what they are or how to get rid of them ?? Real bad pic here... White ones are the bad guys and the brown ones are bits of co co.... - Kafka Edited May 11, 2004 by Kafka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kafka Posted May 11, 2004 Author Share Posted May 11, 2004 I don't have any leaf coat ! I should have entered the leaf coat comp with the line "Bio-bizz is great because i got thrips !" Bugger... All i can do the now is keep the infected plant out of the main room. I'll get some tights to put on my air in fan to stop the buggers getting back in. God damn it... Looks like a long walk to the Hydroshop for me. Cheers guys - Kafka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webby Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 (edited) @ MDP Does the Leaf coat stop/reduce the risk of getting things like thrips and mites? Edited May 12, 2004 by webby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
