i can't really see w any resolution, but if u r looking at those tiny translucent dots...? too small to be anything thrip and/or aphid related. only thing i can think of that is on that small of a scale, that is crawling on the underside of leaves... mites.

is the other side of the leaf deformed in any way? never had mites myself but they don't fuck around so you'll know soon enough if it is them,depending on the age of the plants i guess look into SPINOSAD and NEEM related products,the latter i use as a matter of course to maintain as healthy/bug free a plant i can during the course of it's life.

I would say two spotted spider mite with everything except that one long bug. That one throws me off. We need a clearer pic.

Haay!
Thanks for fast reply and advice.
I had thrips last round. Used neem-oil, but was too late. Desinfected/cleaned cab with Detol. Started all over again. No probs till now. 2 plants have weird leaves, curling sideways.
Sprayed neem-oil again on the plants. Gonna get a good magnifier too to identify pest.
I'll get u clearer pic of the little fuckers tomorrow

Spinosad is organic and kills thrips. Worked great for me. Also, while it usually wont eradicate mites by itself, mites don't like spinosad and it does kill them to a degree. I use spinosad twice in veg now for good measure. Have not seen a thrip or mite since.

Your leaf pics do not show mite damage. Also, not thrip damage. The pics of the bugs are really not visible.

Thrips are survivors, they can survive a shutdown/clean and restart, if you had them last time you probably have them again, spray with water everyday, stroke your plants while you spray them effectively rubbing water on the undersides of the leaves, put a bit of dish soap and neem oil in your spray once or twice a week, just a drop or 2.........what are you feeding your plants?......what kind of medium?......bugs love an ill managed diet.......

Looks to me like the eggs of spider mites, in the first pics. Do you see any white spots on the leaves? Get a magnifier at radio shack, and look for mites. But I would def look into avid....mites can ruin everything, so nuke em.......avid in veg will be ok. Best of luck....I hate the BORG, and I am sorry to say, but I think you have them.....best of luck!!!
