Discovered my first pest.
Pin head small. Brown rice shaped bug sits on the leaf and can see them moving. Only found 3 or 4 so far and no leaf damage so not sure what they are.
First time with a pest in 3 years.

Nevermind lady bugs out of stock because of forest fires 
.
Figure its thrips? Diatomaceous earth is 56 bucks and only kills whats in the dirt.

Yes that is thrips 
Can you get Californicus in your area? They will take them out.
If you need a lead to get them let me know

Thanks for confirming it was Thrips. That’s what I was thinking, they are hard to get rid of pests for sure. Called where I grab my stuff and they have predatory mites to eat them at $3 a pack, a pack is good for 1 plant for 5 weeks.
Then I will try 50/50 Isopropyl Alcohol / water spray on the leaves.
Let ya know how it goes!

Sounds like your on the right track 
californicus is a type predatory mite also
I think the mites will do the trick without spraying.
Let me know how it goes👍

So prior to flower they were watered every 2 days due to pot size.
That lasted 3 waterings into flower and realized that was too much. Went to every 3 days until thrips.
Since then only every 4 days.
Doing a pre bought tea mix with carbs every 8 days with water every 8 days alternating 4 days apart.
Still seeing a few thrips every night with the darker skin but thats it…
Nothing alive in dirt from what i can tell.
3 weeks and 3 days in flower

Yeah i totally see the difference. Very nice clumping going on. And denser I would imagine. I love dense buds. They seem to hold the essence of the bud longer IMO. Your plants look amazingly healthy. I think this “squish” as you call it might work for me for yield and the grobo because of the space. I think it’s genius IMO. Thank you for sharing your results. I feel more confident about my first grow and already looking forward to the second. This is solid information.
