Do you know any good ways to get rid of naturally without affecting the ph or stunting

get an organic spray that has neem in it and cut it in half (from normal dose) with water (for more frequent spraying to get eggs,etc.). Just about anything that can be sprayed and eaten same or next day (garden vegs) will work. Avoid spraying buds, and avoid spraying close to harvest. After, all signs of bugs gone can spray with plain water. I did mine in bathtub when I had thrips and when dry place back under lights. DO NOT spray plants while under lights...will burn em bad!

The first thing I'd do is find out if they're even a potential pest worth the effort. Of course, since you're bringing plants inside from out, you might just want to do a round of preventative treatment anyway.

if possible don't bring plants from outside, inside
grow indoors or outdoors but not both as both is a recipe for an infestation. Thripes, mites, etc. love marijuana!
if you end up using an organic insecticide with neem then be sure if you spray much (I used a hand sprayer bought at a hobby shop) to cover top of pot around plant with garbage bag, plastic, etc. so the spray doesn't drip down into soil as bad for soil
