    Default Week 7 flowering infestation please help:(

    1st grow just noticed some white bugs underneath fan leaves.
    7 weeks into flowering and not sure what to do. Pyrethrum spray?
    Whats the worst that can happen if left untreated? What if i take off all infested fan leaves?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    not 100% on this but they look like aphids to me ... is it outside ? if it is them they can make a mess of your plant pretty quick but there not all that hard to get rid of just go grab some spray from your local garden shop

    Its actually inside
    It has actually been going really well until the last few days as i havent been into the room for a toke for bout a week, after a smoke i really tend too it well but only noticed tonight. The last cycle i had was more abundent and i had no issues whatsoever but stupid me bought in an outdoor plant and thus the infestation Not sure of the breed but it is a damn nice smoke think its mainly a sativa with indica body overtone and a spicy fruity flavour.
    Will be quite dissapointed if it ruins the crop.

    Just too add to that they could even be eggs as there were some black spots too around the same size not sure if you can see in the pic.

    well, I would say spider mites, except the leaves look undamaged. When spider mites are on your plant, they damage it leaving little holes/specs all over your leaf. Do you have that?
