I feel insane rn I found thrips on a new plant I got (from a ‘pest-free’ plant swap :) ) they were cuttings of a philodendron red emerald, found 20 yellow larvae and a discord group confirmed were thrips. Cut all of the cuttings and put them in a closed jar and sprayed the other two plants I was quarantining in the same room. Ive dealt with thrips before so I know the drill— I didn’t see much damage on the plants and don’t see any concerning things on any of the other plants, no spots or yellowing JUST saw the larvae. Obviously im keeping them in the quarantine space for longer now, but what do you guys think as a prognosis? Also what stage of life are these guys in? I’ve had these plants for two weeks. Im hoping this was isolated and I saved my ass from another nightmare.
