Hey Timon, It looks like your plant might be dealing with some pesky little critters, probably something like thrips or spider mites. They love to snack on the leaves, and that can cause the kind of damage you're seeing. If you haven't accidentally damaged the leaves yourself, it's most likely these pests causing the issue. I'd suggest checking the underside of the leaves to see if you can spot any tiny insects or eggs. Neem oil is a solid option for dealing with this kind of thing, or you could go with an insecticidal soap if that's more your style. Just make sure to get good coverage when you spray. Also, improving air circulation around your plants can help keep these pests at bay. If you can, try to increase the humidity a bit too—spider mites, in particular, don't like it too humid. Keep an eye on it and hit me up if things don't improve. Much love from Germany, bro! 👊 Cheers!

It looks like something has taken a little nibble on the leaves near the growth point and then as it's grown the holes got bigger with the leaf and looks more serious than it is. In my experience this is usually from a grasshopper or cricket and by the time you see the damage they are long gone, so you probably don't have anything to worry about.

This does not look like the typical damage caused by thrips or spider mites, It looks a lot like some sory of environmental thing or a growth abnormality in the 2nd pic. First one could be same or maybe a different pest gnawing on the leaves but the pattern is not consistent or anything I am recognizing. Can place some yellow/blue sticky traps and see what it yields. I would check to make sure your plants are not getting overwatered and allowed time to dry out between watering. Don't spray anything on the leaves and creat good air circulation without points the fans at the plant 24/7, oscillation is good. But if you don't have that option point the fan into the corner of the tent and the air will move itself aorund.
