Flying bugs from clones! Picture's!

Bad new bears! I know I did a big no-no and got some clones from someone. Turns out the clones had bugs in them, flying bugs. Couldn't get too close of a look to identify, I think it may have been thrips. I got some sns 203 from the local hydro store and soaked the leaves/soil with them. Within 24 hours I haven't seen a single bug, yet. I plan on re-applying 5 days after the initial application then again in an additional 5 days. Should I continue spraying after then?

I'll throw some pictures of the leaves that look "off" due to them. Anyone know what it was?

I looked under the leaves and couldn't see anything but have yet to use a magnifying glass to check it out though. I'll check them better later tonight

Well, I couldn't locate my magnifying glass unfortunately. And I noticed a few bugs were back today... :( From what I've read now this SNS 203 is crap, I sprayed another coat of it today just in case it is working. I plan on getting some a systematic insecticide (Bayer tree and shrub, from what I've read, is one of the few things that can actually wipe out a lot of pests)

I'll still try to get my hands on a magnifying glass in the evening tomorrow to further inspect the underside of the leaves.

Damn dude, that sux donkey balls. You need to tell whoever you got the clones from that they can go fuck themselves big time with some pine cones cuz that shit is nonsense. Clones are supposed to speed you along not fuck you in the asshole dirty style.

I applied the bayers a few days ago and it seemed to help cut down a bit. I saw one fly out and another one hopped to the ground so I squished it and took a picture. Any ideas of what it is? (I accidentally chopped off a few legs as you can see on the upper part of the paper)

fungus gnat. not a serious problem. irritating but not really dangerous for your plant. the spots will be from something else.
