You’d have to use YouTube and post. Link
For the video
Do you have a loupe ?
If not you should get one …you’ll need it for trichome analysis anyways …
Use it to look deep into the new growth
That’s most likely where you will find them if they are on your plants …
I’ll try to get a better picture of the flyers.

The little yellow hairy things next to it are eggs
I watched it shit them out with my loupe
Was pretty amazing and also horrifying

The first photo I just showed you
From the aphid look around 10 o’clock
You’ll see a translucent litrle crickwt
Looks identical to the pics ypu poasted
Good lord… I gotta nuke these domestic terrorists!
BTW. What magnification loupe should get? Should I get a single monocular?
Or
But I would prefer one of these if acceptable.
Sorry to blow up your thread
Look up an app called seek by naturalist
It identifies almost anything you show it
It’s free
Sometimes your phone camera is a better option than the app one
You can identify anything from your camera roll too
I think it or something similar is one of the most important things you can have because it arms your with knowledge you currently don’t

Yup. Looks like it! So they are root aphids?

My only issue with what you are showing is you really need 30-60x magnification for trichome inspection
I have that app… it says I need a better pic.
It’s definitely some kind of aphids
There are many
Root
Corn
Peach
Blah blah
Some even are translucent the exact color of the plant they feed off
This is why I’m saying get a loupe and inspect in the dark new growth of your plant
What is the bucket you sent pics of that theyvare on?
That was just a black metal lid from a jar. I needed something black because they are so small and clearish that they are invisible on anything light colored.

Haha ok my bad …so these are ON your plant ?
Or in the soil?
In the soil. I see nothing on or under the leafs. But because of the color or lack of and size I may need a loupe to see them.
The with powder on the lid is DE. Tiny tiny dust particles of DE. Thats how small it is.
Looking at the pictures of aphids on Google, I an 99% sure that’s what they are.
Man …not sure but I think if they are in the soil it’s root aphids …I could be wrong because some of these pests drop to the soil to pupate then come back and lay crap out kids on the plant
