forgot to mention the details:
MG potting soil in the two you see (fox farm in the others)
I give them 60ml soil fed of 1/2 str tigerbloom at about 11 am every other day (in reverse osmosis distilled water)
pH of the feed is about 6.0 and pH of the run off is about 6.5
their exactly 1 week 1 day into flowering, stared giving tigerbloom about halfway through the first flower week. (4 weeks and 2 days old total)
Using 7 cfls
Temp goes from 65 F to 85F between night and day
Humidity is always 40-60 %
I mist a couple sprays of water every day to keep the humidity up
this is happening to 2 out of 7 blueberry plants

If the leaves have always been like that then they aren't from bugs. I've seen leaves that come out like that.

I have had two plants that had holes. they never got worse. and the other plants never developed them. so id just say something to do with leaf formation

Just a bit nervous, I live out in the sticks and I always come across strange bugs in my house. Just the other day I found a big ass neon orange spider crawling across my floor.
**EDIT** I'm starting to notice another small hole forming on a plant that didn't have the problem before. Starting to get real confused here.

looks to me like sun burns. the brown edges of the holes should be crisp if so.
If its a bugs issue you can usually find slim around the eaten part if you catch it in a few hours.
Leaves that had been cut somehow while starting to form usually come out like thoes. I've had a lot of thoes on topped plants when I tried to FIM. Or when my cat ate a new growth point.

Yeah their a tad crispy, I guess I'll hold off on misting the leaves (they form water drops on them). Maybe raise the lights a bit, Thank you for the input!

So thats your issue.
Use a tad of liquid deteregent (thats how you write it?) to act as a wetting agent and mist only when the light go off.
You plants DON'T NEED more that one misting a day if they have roots. If they do NEED more than one misting a day get a humidity dome and that will take care of that issue.
Playing with humidity too often is not good for the plant either way.

hey bro- blueberry grow here too. Where are the seeds from? Mine are from dutch passion and I have the same thing going on. at this point, im guessing my insight wont help you a lot- but if you havent gone into flower yet I would like to put my two cents in. My first thought is the genetics could be a little unstable- If your grow is Dutch Passion seeds and we have the same problem then.......... Another thing could be stress from several places as i experience myself. I stared feeding the tiny plants too soon and this caused purple stems( nute lockup). Did you start feeding them full strength nutes. I finally got things dialed in and beside crazy growth and extra fan leaves growing off each node everything is fine now. The best thing to do at this point if the leaves bother you- is top them and get ride of those leave. I did this myself and that worked for now anyway. No major issues. Also I running top drip rockwool and hydroton so the medium is different but close to the same thing going on as far as leaves are concerned. Anyway everything seems fine here where im at two weeks later so I would not worry. Just top them, I read somewhere that blueberry is a strain that this is beneficial to do. Check out my post MUTANT BLUEBERRY and you can see my plant as of a couple weeks ago. Now more that triple the size they were then. All my blueberry have three fan leave on each node and i think this is supposed to be good..........I hope any way. Please just answer me back on my post as to where you seeds are from, especially if they are dutch passion
