Hey friend,
So these puncture/bite marks only make me think of a few pests. Grasshoppers, snail/slug, caterpillar/worms because of the bite marks i wouldn't think of any other pest....if you're able, try to examine the bottoms of any leaves and on the trunk to see if you see anything.
Otherwise if you only see activity in this one spot, is it possible a finger could have also done the damage? I know I'm usually suspect #1 when i find holes and chunks out of leaves with my clumsy hands and fingernails.
For bugs i always think having diamataceous earth around is a good idea because it will kill many varieties of bugs, its food grade (safe for pets etc), and it turns into a silica supplement for the plant. All you would do is dust the soil, the trunk...maybe some leaves and if a bug crosses it...boom outerbody broken down!
Otherwise i think caterpillars inch worms and cabbage loopers are all basically the same family and a nice BT spray works well. Good luck with the hunt, hopefully they'll be easy to spot. ✌️

Or! I got something similar but it wasnt bugs. You have to be careful when watering with nutes. Put water in soil, dont on leafs. They are delicate in contact with nutes.

Normal seedling growth at day 5?I have posted a Day 5 picture to my diary - it seems to me the seedling is a slow grower, and the leaves are dark green. Does it seem like typical day 5 growth? I am wondering if the FFOF is a little too hot? A lot of other seedlings look to be a lighter shade of green.3 years ago

Cutting damaged leaves away or not?Hallo, I have some spots on leaves due to calcium deficencie and it has stoped spreading above leaves by adding calmag to the nutrient solution. We talk about 2 single leaves per plant (max 3 leaves). Should I cut them of because they need energy to recover or does it not care?

Aphid problem!So I just ran into a few aphids, there isn’t very many, but I need an “all natural remedy” (no chemicals) for aphids. I’m hoping something strong enough to destroy most or all of them! HELP!
I want to “nip it in the bud”, before it gets worst! Thanks!Other. Bugs

Is this OK? Weird plant behaviorPlant biggie has always been taller, but really is so different than the others from her seed pack. Is she OK? She seems happy AF, but isn't putting much into anything besides GIANT LEAVES 🤣 is everything all right with her and the other plants? I have zero experience.
