Hi these are some clones that are about a month old but have been battling thrips since day 1.
They didn’t show any signs of thrips when received but somehow infested within the first week.

Every morning they get pulled 1 at a time and sprayed down with heavy mist on foliage(straight water) to try and blast off any thrips and give them simulation of morning dew.
After watering D.E. has been applied to foliage and top of soil and reapplied once a week.

It also appears to be an iron deficiency?
plants are in promix and had compost tea last week.
A few of them were topped also last week due to being faster growers than the rest and to bush them out.

Environment
Temp avg 80-84 during day and 69-74 during night
No other sensors atm but estimate humidity avg is between 40-50%

Plants get watered with tap water that gets aerated for 24-48 hours in 5 gallon bucket.

This is temporary setup until 4x4 tent is running in next couple of weeks with all the sensors and bells and whistles.

What is everyone doing to combat thrips and prepare plants to switch to flower in 2 weeks?

Looking for everyone’s thoughts and suggestions on helping these girls bounce back and switch into flower as seamlessly as possible and also kick the thrips out for good

Thanks in advance
