should I be concerned about this hole on my leaf?

hole showed up today. wondering if this looks like a pest did it or if its something that just happens from time to time. I read that holes can appear in leaves when there isn't enough potassium, but I'm feeding with molasses so that shouldn't be an issue.

Honestly, it's not something I would worry about at all.. in fact, I've got a couple of those same holes on one of my ladies - I've ignored them and there haven't been any further holes... Catepillar holes are much larger and not so easy to miss... and the holes multiply daily... and other insects (thrips, aphids, spider mites, whiteflies) don't actually chew the leaf so that a hole is created... I've not heard that a potassium deficiency would produce anything like that either - but even if it did, your molasses is more than adequate... No worries! Good luck!

It's a girl! congrats! shit happens and sometimes leaves have holes, could be stress in the roots of the leaf got whacked when it was growing. If there's no more showing up toss it up to an unknown and move on. Monitor with some sticky traps if you feel it could be pests but I don't think it is. Good Luck!

No, Looks fine to me. Inspect the underside of your leaves and keep an eye for more. Larger bugs like caterpillars will cause holes. The small bugs that are hard to see usually wont make a hole but do visible damage. It looks more like physical damage then anything. Bent the leaf by accident or its rubbing on something else. Happy Growing

There has been some hungry little bug enjoying this cannabis leave. Look at the bottom for bugs and search for more indicators. You need to know what bug it is to choose the best pesticide against them. Here is a link from the grow weed easy website with all the different natural pesticides. And which natural pesticide is the most effective against which bugs. https://www.growweedeasy.com/safe-cannabis-pesticides
