Is this from insecticidal soap?

Recently had white flies in my garden and sprayed insecticidal soap twice within a week, I read somewhere that so can cause the leaves to dry out and found a few of my plants have weird new growth and holes in the leaves. There are zero pests in the room I checked the whole thing up and down. Does anybody have any idea what this is from?

Have you been rough with the plants? Sometimes after a training and defol session I'll notice a tear and a few holes in a leaf or three. Always leaves me scratching my head and wondering whether I have any pests.


When it comes to possible pest ID, sadly I have no experience as I have never had any pests issues bar three or four gnats here and there indoors.

I dunno
Maybe
It’s in my other room too. I have a little closet with my babies in there
I sprayed them too for safe measure and there’s one in there with the same issue
It’s gotta be the spray. There’s no bugs at all and it’s a totally secluded environment from the main grow room.

Are you spraying during lights on or off?

They were on
I know rookie mistake. Weird that no one has had this happen to them.

Looks like a caterpillar is lurking in the foliage.

Those holes and tears are from boron deficiency.


Aka lime injury, calmag toxicity. Since you guys don't understand balance.

Same as the weird new growth?
I just too dressed with bloom nutrients
Probably has something to do with that
I think it will clear up when I flip to flower and it has somewhere to put everything
