Recovery from thrips

[SuperLemonHazeLover]

After a week's absence I discovered my girl has been mauled badly by thrips, she's an auto at week 8 mid flower. Has anybody had experience of thrips at this stage? And if so is recovery likely or do I cut my losses? I can't post any photos for safety reasons but every single leaf has at least 20+ rust spots where the little blighters have had their feast and she's shown no sign of growth since, any thoughts are welcome

Ok bit risky but here are some photos of the damage, I've never had thrips before and it would be great to know if she's gonna pull through bearing in mind she's only got 3 or 4 weeks left in her so anybody please? Help?

Well I can sure say that thrips don't like being sprayed with a mix of water, bicarbonate of soda and a dash of lemon juice. With this solution I managed to herd them into the run off tray after a good dousing with the solution then plain ph'd water to clean off any residue. Once herded it was a simple matter of disposal, now back to overwatch in case they resurface!
