They seem to be more prevalent in the US from what I’ve seen, same with russets. Barely hear of them over here thank God. Although I know @Kyumonryu had issues before but he’s in the wilds of western Canada

Yeah they come in from outside as my grow is in an outbuilding essentially. They drive me nuts super persistanf.
@jaws I’d reccomend the blue sticky traps as well. Its been the best way to tell whether you’re winning the battle.

The Western Flower Thrip was first documented in southwest USA in the 1800’s.
It has spread north and flourishes in western canada’s peat bogs. This just happens to also be where all the peat comes from if your bagged soil or peat is made here. The thrips reinfest the peat after it has been pasturized, probably during the bagging stage.
Western Flower Thrips and 2 spotted mites are extremely common in the natural environment where I live. Usually winter months are a nice escape from any bugs in the garden but when the bales of soilless mix come loaded with them… what can a guy do.
I suppose I could switch to some kind of hydroponics or airoponics to eliminate the media those bugs get a foot hold in but that’s hard to do for me and what I do.
best of luck ridding your plants of them. At least they are easy to knock down compared to other bugs.

We’ve got a huge peat moss plant that I’ve been past several times and there’s always a line up of semi trucks loading . Every province of license plates across Canada must get there bales from here. Mostly BC and Ontario trucks that I’ve seen .
They ship that stuff on rail car too as the tracks run right through that bagging plant.

Another Blackberry Cookies down. 66 days. Cut the 1st one a couple days ago. The bud was a branch I’d broken earlier. I’m smoking it. 61 days I think, no real cure. Way too early to tell anything but I’m smoking more of it. Might just sample the whole plant. All 4!

@JAWS you got some nice looking genetics and a few well worked lines at very reasonable prices.
Do you have any plans or would you consider making female seeds? I know some breeders are just plan against this so I figured I would ask.

ya im going to get more into those as i move forward, i reversed the chronic and dawgs of war just a bit ago but for what ever reason i was unable to extract any usable pollen from either of them. i have a fresh batch of spray ready to roll just need to find something to reverse.
still looking for testers for the fem DOUBLE HEATHER, had a tester but things did not go as planned.
