Hello, this is my first grow. I have the plant in a space bucket under 4x14.5w LED bulbs from home Depot with the diffusers on still (don't own a Dremel). The plant is Barney's farm pineapple Express auto in organic potting mix with a dash(1/2 tsp) of organic 4-5-4 nutrients mixed in completely. Plant is doing great but yesterday I found one white fly on the plant and wasn't able to catch or kill it. I wiped down all the leaves with water and tried to kill anything that looked like an egg on the bottom of the leaves, tiny brown things. Today I found one more white fly, I'm unsure if it's the same one, and was able to murder it. I checked the bottom of all the leaves again and saw a few tiny brown things which I wiped off and smushed again. I got some garden safe insecticidal soap from the store today and want to spray the plant but I don't want to kill it either. Should I wait and see if it gets worse before I take any additions action towards it or should I preemptively spray it just to make sure. I germinated the plant outside for a few days when it was young before I moved it inside which is how I'm assuming the bug made it inside because I have no idea where it would have come from otherwise.
I have one more autoflower, not pineapple Express, I've been growing outside it's entire life so far also. I plan on putting them both inside my 20"x36" tent once my quantum board shows up and don't want to worry about bugs with that guy either. Should I spray that one? It's much smaller and less developed than the one on the bucket.
Thanks for the help!
