@Carolina Dream'n Large fan leaf in the lower right of the pic, from left to right, second blade has possible damage towards the end, middle blade has possible damage (towards stem, left half), last blade was most noticeable (gives off the "sheen of thrip damage"), in the middle.

Again, these things can be difficult to diagnose from pics, I was just giving you a heads up to a potential issue before it gets worse. Quarantine should be longer than the life cycle of pests you're looking to avoid (thrips live longer than 30 days). Regarding spraying, thrips can hide in your grow medium, so unless you're treating that also, your attacks are in vain. Shouldn't "pooh-pooh" any words of advice or warnings of "problems". I won't mention the deficiencies/imbalances visible in the plants in the background, I'm sure that's just my eyes/camera playing tricks on me as well.

Sorry though.

@Bbcchance @whitebb2727 Glad you guys found me. My rooms almost 100% for the comparative run but Im waiting on an order of (2) 4' Agromax UVA "Plus" bulbs and t5ho fixtures to finish off the room for the next grow.
I'm wondering if this is going to be good, or if I should have mixed some UV-B in there as well? I just dont like the idea of more timers for a seperate set of lights on top of my (2) 1000W hps and timers for my pumps etc. I'm already pretty full in my room with wall wart timers and thermostats etc.

Nah not greasy feeling at the moment. Does have some leaf twist but nothing as substantial as I have seen other places.
May be a cross of something with gg? I dont see much twist at all, which is a pretty solid indication of this strain. I'm noticing that there are a lot of crosses out now. Its likely been like that for a while, but Im relatively new with the glue only having it for about 8 months and only running it twice. I didn't know anything about it until after I had a cut haha

Here is some twist from my momma glue:

All kinds of twist goin on in this pic. Theres nothing "subtle" about her characteristics.

I'd like to make some S1's of the glue I have. I know theres other great glue cuts I could get, but this one seems perfect to me and I'd hate to lose it (god forbid something happens). I think I'm going to dedicate a branch or two for some CS on my next run with the glue.

I think the uva bulbs will be good. They make a noticeable difference.

Definitely make some seeds. I have regretted every time I thought I should save a plant by clone or by s1 and didn't.

I appreciate the heads up on the UV-A bulbs. 10K from the fluoros with the red spectrum from the hps should work nicely. Plus anything I can do to aid in keeping PM out of my grow is just an added bonus. Im going to use a 4' light on both front and backside of the HPS hoods, each one plugged into the same timer for the ballasts so no extra wall warts-

Quick update and pics
247 g's of dry solid nugs from 5 plants.
All 5 went straight from cloner to flower with no veg time.
400W COB LED over a 44"x33" flood and drain set up.

The rooted clones were about 7-8" when they were flowered.

They got to about 4x that size by harvest.

Just a few g's shy of hitting 9 zips of seriously dank buds.
The smell is off the charts! Harvested at 60 days, the stone is a lazy couch lock so I can only imagine how unmotiviated I'd be if I let it go any longer. :eyesmoke:
