First time grower need help asap!

[AndreasP]

Greetings from Sweden!
So this is my first time growing and i got some serious issues with most of my plants..
Im growing autoflower seeds outdoors in good quality soil; Northern lights, Royal blumatic and White widow and they are all in week 7.
Im watering them every 3 day and every other watering i was giving them nutes; Powder feeding Mostly sativa from Green house Seed. I got these from a friend and used them even though they are for mostly sativa plants..
Stopped using it 3 days ago as i thought maybe it was the reason my plants got this way. I used to spray them (all 12 plants) with 1g dissolved in 800ml (27oz) tap water.
It really looks like some bugs have been eating on them but im almost sure this is not the case because there are one (!?) plant with no holes at all.
Anyway i´ve sprayed them yesterday with some bugspray and i put some organic compost on top of the soil..
I also measured the pH in the soil which was around 6.5.
I have no idea whats wrong with them but its tearing them up and im afraid my harvest will be fu**** up.

Would really appreciate if you guys could help me figure this out. Thanks.

looks like bugs to me, check the under side of the leaves with a magnifying glass, also check um a couple of hours after dark as some critters only come out at night

Yes i think so as well. It´s just strange that they haven´t attacked all of them.
And there seems to be more than one problem as one of the plant has curled leafes as seen in picture 2.
Will check for critters tomorrow night.
Thanks

Sometimes bugs prefer certain plants, my last indoor run I ended up with a fungus gnat infestation on just one of four strains. The other three strains were basically free of them but my og was saturated.

Alright, so you guys were right. I have some sort of bug invasion. Though im not sure what type of pest. The picture isn´t the best but i think it some type of aphid. Took the picture during the day and there were alot of them. Dont even want to think about how many there are at night..
Sprayed them with a bug killer with the natural ingredient pyrethrum.
Any other tips?

Make sure the " BUG SPRAY " you are using is SPECIFIC for fruit and vegetable plants.
Look into an insect soap type solution as it works by suffocating bugs more than poisoning them with harsh chemicals. It is NOT a one time treat but a continuous method of treat.

Bugs for sure this happened to me when I planted some in the forest.
What I can think of is putting a plastic clear dome over it(if it doesn't draw too much attention) to keep the bugs out.

In a big forest And it went really fast..
Think it stopped now after i started using a soap solution as recommended by Budzbuddha.
I will check them again at night in a couple of days.
