No evidence of pests under the scope... please help

*before anything, did a sulfur spray yesterday morning, no pm lol*

Noticed the problem 3 days ago but they were beautiful up until then. I thought it could be russets or broad mites but after using a microscope for about 45 mins all I could find was those 2 ball things that I'm sure aren't bugs. I know this isn't from spider mites but I didn't even see any under the scope and they were my biggest problem for the longest time.

A few weeks ago I was spraying constantly and this happened to my mom's, but before my sulfur spray yesterday I only sprayer these once before and that was a week ago, so I don't think it's a burn from spraying... any help at all would be greatly appreciated

Good pictures, not only of the problem area but the whole plant as well, will go far to allow folks here to help. It also helps to have general information about your grow (size of grow area, stage of growth, lights and distance from plant, growing medium, nutrient schedule, etc.).

I see some holes on the leaves but it's hard to see much with all that sulfur residue. That damaged new growth is most likely from what you sprayed.

Have you sprayed them with anything else? I ask because that looks like mechanical or chemical damage. Nutrient problems usually have other more distressed indicators when they get to the point where there are holes in the leaves.
 
[Really hoping you're right]
Besides the sulfur that I did yesterday I sprayed them a week ago with a mix of dr.bronners hemp/ peppermint castile soap [1oz per gal] em5 from buildasoil[1oz per gal] and 99%iso 200ml per 5 gal bucket. I've been spraying this same mix on the moms and they have no signs of damage.... maybe because these are teens and the moms can take a beating? About 2 months ago I had horrible spider mites and sprayed constantly. My moms started to look like this, so I'm hoping that the teens just couldn't handle handle mix and its a chemical problem and not pests.Idk but for the next 2 or 3 days I just gotta see what happens. I'm looking at leaves under microscope rn and will post pics in about 20 mins.
 
Not one bit of evidence of a mite. So scientific method is telling me it's from my spray a week ago. Gana let time do its thing


Phone camera couldn't zoom into the microscope lens my apologies

If you're thinking it's the folial spray, clean the bottle and spray the leaves down with fresh water (to wash anything off you might not want). Be careful not to get buds wet since that can cause rot (though I don't remember seeing buds on your plants yet).

But, yeah. Time.

Stop spraying your plants and wait on flip till new foliage comes in
Flowering sick plants would be a waste of time

Worse thing I have ever seen, yeh sometimes what you spray can make it look worse by soaking into the wounds and/or medium. I would take cuts if it special then burn it down
