I just checked today and the edges are kinda eaten off and there's 2 holes on 2 leaves
I just seen a thing on the internet about how u make a homemade co2. Well I got a homemade beer making kit for Christmas and put half a bottle of it in there. U think that might just b it.I checked and didn't see any mites or eggs.

co2 is not for beginners IMHO..

Looks like you may have a pest problem, take a close look at leaves and soil, maybe through a pocket scope/jewler's loupe... Treat with neem oil if pests appear...

From the title of your thread I pictured a weed plant, a redneck, and a shotgun LMAO!

agreed! yea that looks like bugs, could have been 1 big bug just passing by, keep an eye on it, if you see more and more if it happen, its time for neem oil or something.
i got some bug spray for vegetables, diluted it about 1/2 way with water, and spray with that. seems to work fine

i had thiz problem a couple weeks ago. I wouldnt spray bug repellent or anything if it is just one spot, but definitely make a neem oil mix and right before lights off give ur crop a good spray and make sure you you spray under the leaves as well as on the medium you are using. this is a great organic spray and can be used up to the last week on flower. make sure you only mix as much as you are going to use and never save it as it will lose its potency and wont do a dam thing. thi pretty much makes the bugs want to die before they eat your plants. and if they lay eggs and hatch, the new bugs wont be able to grow chitin (bug skin). Try it bro, it awesome sjtuff.

That's not bugs. I've seen plants get that. From what I can read it's either a) a genetic malformation (usually nothing to worry about as it doesn't always occur) or b) pH fluctuations and/or nutrient imbalance be it a deficiency or overfert. Unless you have caterpillars or something, you'd see what's biting a hole that big.

Would tend to agree with it not being bugs, but keep an eye out. Holes that big would be from bugs you will very easily be able to see. I have had this happen in a grow before but it was when the PH is was off and therefore also seeing multiple deficiencies to which i attributed the holes to.
