Holes/Spotting on leaves

StunFlowerstarted grow question 6y ago

Noticed some holes and some spotting on a few leaves. Initial thought was spider mites, but based on pics not sure if that's the case. Also thought it could be areas where water beads were on the leaves and burned through (as the holes go). Not sure about spots. Thoughts?

I don't know if I'd say spider mites, but something is definitely taking a nibble. Could be Caterpillar type crawlers, earwigs etc. Many will.just eat and move on. You could try a neem oil application and just keep examining the leaves top and bottom to watch for any eggs.

Week 1 Day 5 picture-I'm concerned about the leaves praying to the sun gods and slight yellowing. What's happening here? Is it due to low humidity and possibly light burn. Humidifier has been added to the tent and light distance increase to 20 inches as a precaution 😉

Stains on the plant Hey guys, first of all, thank you for taking the time to read this. I started growing my first canopy and since I am little excited, I started before everything I ordered arrived. For that reason, I am still using the soil I used while planting the seed. Did I fuck up already?
