Batista Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 They seem to be patrolling the leaves looking for something. They don't appear to be sucking on the plant stem or eating the leaves. Are they ladybugs? This plant was outside and brought inside to convert to Hydro. Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420SA Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Can't say for sure but my guess is you should be happy to see them. They do look like some form of ladybug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy-z Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Those are baby stinkbugs. You do not want them on your plants...Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk I had the same on my indoor plants,failed extraction fan required an open door during the day so they sneaked in.. I did a removal/squash and from the smell it became quite evident that it was part of the stink bug family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly the young leaves & buds. I usually get them on my orange tree, feeding on the developing oranges, which die & drop offSent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
