What's wrong with my plants?

A couple of weeks ago I noticed little white specs on my plants. Recent I used a magnifine glass to look closely and see that it looks like the skin of the leaf has been stripped. I do not think this is because of spider mites, I have looked several times, but i am a noobie. 20171017_194931.jpg 20171017_194917.jpg 20171017_194442.jpg 20171017_194931.jpg 20171017_194917.jpg 20171017_194931.jpg 20171017_194917.jpg 20171017_194442.jpg

Definite thrip problem, and looks pretty intense too if they have hit many leaves on all your plants.

Get in there immediately with a hand pump sprayer and spinosad and go to town. Spray thoroughly the tops, and most importantly the underside of the leaves, spray the stems in their entirety, and spray enough spinosad into the soil/media that you reach the first inch or so (you will probably want to pH the mix if you intend to soak the media.)

Monterrey Garden is a great spinosad product.

Can anyone help me, everything's been going fine, had a power cut Monday and blew my bulb been running on a 400watt hps, I've had to stick a 250watt CFL in just till my new bulb arrives tomorrow, got 6 plants and 2 have started to droop like this, and growth has sort of stopped on all of them the last day Id say when we had the power cut I completely forgot about the plants for a good 4 - 5 hours they're on 24hrs a day normally, not been over/underwatering could this just be a drop in light and heat by any chance ?

What would you do if at 12pm it went suddenly pitch black for 5 hours?

Then woke to the sun being a different colour?

Once you get back to hps they’ll be fine. They’re just confused lol

Aye they should pick back up. If it's only the light causing it and not overwater ect.

Mine droop an hour or so before the lights go out. In fact they are drooping now from too much light. They're 20/4 and droop after 12hrs lol. Maybe they are telling me something?

Affect your yeild? Doubt it. Probably at most a gram lol.

Just remember you're growing a weed, they are very hardy. I have a blue dream growing in 50f conditions outside, ripped out of the ground by my mother, stem snapped and still going strong lol
