Thrips Damage Threshold.
6-4-2026

Before evaluating damage thresholds, be sure treat seed treatments automatically at first true leaf and then wait for about 5 days or 50 DD60's to evaluate the new growth. For In-furrow treatments like AgLogic or AdmirePro, you can wait until 2 or 3 leaves get out and then evaluate the damage to determine if treatment is necessary. Look at the photo above to decide if you are at a damage threshold which would be more than the damage in level 2 in this photo. Level 2 or below does not need spraying. Once we get 2 or 3 good leaves with decent size even with some damage, then we should be safe, or if we reach 5 total leaves regardless of early damage, then you get safe.
