A young Green Peach Aphid?

 

[Jewels]

Thank you.
I would say , Yes, looks like them. Beady little eyes.
(Main stalk, over thumb)

Crappy.
Quarantine and ,,,?
Never dealt with this before.
Interested in advice, from those in the know.
Google never solved any of my problems.

I would not call it an infestation. I see no plant damage. They are few and far between at this point.
These plants are Outdoors. I want to clone them and bring them in.
When the plants came to me I assumed they were hungry. But, the light tops may be a sign of pests?

Spinosad should do it. Mix according to bottle, then re-apply again in 3-5 days. Be sure to spray plants top to bottom, both topsides and undersides of all leaves. Plants should be drenched.
That last plant looks hungry to me.

I found Pyrethrin to be really effective for for aphids. Be careful with the spray as it kills bees outdoors also. So I wouldn't spray on a windy day or bring them into an enclosed area if possible. Or you might ask @stiickygreen he has a good organic method if you wanna go that route. I did find this to be more effective than the spinosad and if you ever get thrips spinosad kicks ass for them.

I see these often in my guerrilla grows and it's really difficult to do anything about them other than physically kill the ones I see and keep an eye out for an infestation startup. Even though I see them often Ive never really had a big problem with them in my guerrilla spots but I've had potted plants that they really begin to multiply on. Indoors they are the worst of any pest there is in my eyes. If you see one inside take immediate action. They suck the juices from your plants and they are attracted to the color yellow or the yellow leaves anyway. Keep an eye on the underside of your leaves especially the yellow ones.

Aphids are soft bodied insects. Either spinosad, pyrethrin/sulfur, or even soap and water will really know them back hard and keep them in control. Personally I like watching predators eat them

They are all females......and all are born pregnant. That should tel you most everything you need to know..LOL. You want to knock them down/out early and not let your guard down when you think you may have them under control. The "Plant Therapy" (peppermint/soybean oil/other stuff) works fairly well but again....you have to stay on it. Just a few become a shit load within a few days. A good spray from a pump sprayer will also give em Hell. Jet those fuckers hard.

I've also heard they are attracted to the heavier nitrogen fed plants. I was watching a youtube video or somewhere(bad memory) and this guy was trying to figure out why aphids were attacking this one particular tree in an orchard, come to find out around that tree was the owners favorite outdoor pissing spot. Said he would take a leak out there a couple times a day! Lol. I thought that was pretty funny.

Things that cheer me up...

 

[Jewels]

Thanks folks. Killed 'em dead. Four hours later, all stop.

I remembered that I bought this tackle box of garden potions @ a garage sale last summer. I dug through, and found something looked kinda like this. Lucky day ! I love zero dollar fixes.


Said "safe up until day of harvest". It even had the ingredients mentioned by @SCJedi

I will hose down the clones I cut tomorrow and go over them with a toothbrush. This looks survivable.

What are these? Aphids? You can see them without a scope.

 

[ChronicWonders]

Aphids and something else I can’t make out/determine. Maybe a soldier eating the aphids???

I watched 1 today looking up at the led light ring on this scope.
1 was pushing the rest around him last night.
They eat till they fall over and can't move. lol

Here nor there; mine had gold /copper eyes.

Never saw them again.
Not an issue now, we just got a foot of snow.
No more bugs until April
