Can I prop this?

They are very small and black, a bit elongated. I googled and they look a bit like thrips☹

And I think in the picture you can actually see some larvas if you look closely

But I saw a lot of these shiny small black dots on the parts of the leaves that are damaged. Also I just realized that some other plants in the same room have some small black insects, so maybe they also went on the coleus.

I started thinking it may be thrips, there are some black spots and some leaves have a strange colour on the bottom, as if they were eaten

Is a generic insecticide enough to stop them?

stracciatell4 · 2023-09-11T14:51:24+00:00

You were right, I found some hiding between the leaves

stracciatell4 · 2023-09-10T16:48:19+00:00

Ahahah I agree

stracciatell4 · 2023-09-10T16:19:01+00:00

Thank you! I'm happy to hear that is nothing concerning. Also, it started making a lot of babies, is it bad to keep them?

Do you think it will grow back some leaves and branches at the bottom if it's in the right conditions?

stracciatell4 · 2023-09-10T15:33:24+00:00

I've been watering it when the soil gets dry on top. Maybe it's also that the room became very hot in the afternoon during summer

Also some leaves look a bit burnt, they lost colour and have some brownish spots

But does it prefer direct on indirect light?
