# It looks like my Thai Constellation has thrips. The bottom leaves are…

_Posted by Steven on 2025-07-24_

It looks like my Thai Constellation has thrips. The bottom leaves are yellowing rather quickly, and I did find at least one bug that I believe is a thrip. It’s also being treated for fungus gnats, which I’ve added traps and a soil cover (stones) for. Could it possibly be overwatered at the same time? I plan to treat with neem oil ASAP. Any other suggestions? I hate thrips - they’re on a few other plants too. Thanks!

It could be possibly overwatered, but check to be sure with a plant over the pot and and see if the roots are mushy or soft and root rot usually stinks

Oh noooo!!! I am soooo sorry! Hose your plants down really good. There are alot of products out for thrips so you can get through this but again, I'm really sorry 😞
