  1. Uh oh! Please help noticed 1 small pin holes in each plant yesterday. Came back today and one of the plants has 1 new small hole and the other is bigger. The Sour Kush plants hole is the same. I put more diatomaceous earth on both plants. I cant see any bugs anywhere on either plant. Anyone have a clue what this is?

Plants look healthy other than the holes
 
Do you take your plants in and out of your space?

I have seen something similar to this before with 0 bugs in sight, and it turned out to be damage from moving my plants in and out of a grow tent frequently.

Not sure if that is whats up here, but good luck!

No I haven't moved them. I have no clue what is causing this! Hope the cannabis whisperer reads this soon, i have researched everywhere and can't find anything! Very frustrating
 
They do look like bug bites, or like another critter tried to take a bite outta the leaves.
A couple weeks back i noticed the same thing and then found a couple crawlies. Treated with di earth and neem oil. Took about a week then no new signs of damage. Ive used the neem oil a couple times since then to keep bugs away and it seems to have worked.
If it is bugs tho, remember the di earth can take a while to kill the bugs.
 
Oh another possibility could be wires doing it, have you done any training yet? Somebody else here in afn posted up kinda the same thing then noticed the twisty ties he used for lst were putting holes in leaves.
 
Its not wires as there haven't been any in that vicinity. The thing that puzzles me is that i applied diatomaceous earth to the soil and leaves couple weeks ago. I put some more on last night and had 1 new small hole and one other hole got bigger. I have no clue. Could it be some kind of deficiency? I'm at a loss here!
 
I have no real experience with any of this but i dont think nute deficiencies do that to leaves.
If it were my plant id do what youve already done, id add some neem oil as well just to make sure its not creepy crawlies. Then id pay attention to those leaves to see if you start getting bad spots or colors around the holes.
Might be just some weird random thing, hopefully its nothing to worry about and your girls can get back to doing their thing!!
 
Today is day 16 and i really want to transfer from cheap plastic to the bigger 7 gallon fabric pots.
