What's happening here????

I have about 4 different strains in my veg room, and the only strain with this problem is my animal cookie strain. I have 4 plants of that strain and this only appears on the very top of each plant. Affecting about 2-3 leaves on all 4 on top. I turned the place upside down and don't see any pests, could this just be bad genetics? They came from clones. It happened about 2 weeks into veg. They're about 4 weeks old now. I grow indoors. Growing medium is coco. Any suggestions will help! thanks a lot!

Looks like some type of pest. Use some organic pesticides. Keep room clean. And check soil for anything. Also check roots make sure they aren't being affected. Maybe a disease. But I think a pest is the issue

Looks like caterpillar damage to me. I agree with using pest control spray.

We grow indoors, i've never seen a caterpillar indoors, is that possible? Also I spray azamax once a week already.

If a moth can get in, it can lay eggs. Look closely and try to find something. From the look of all that damage I can't believe you wouldn't find your leaf eater(s)

Whatever it is wouldn't azamax take care of it?? I even took a white paper to a bunch of leaves and shook and didn't see anything fall out. I didn't find any eggs or larvae either.

I could be wrong, Azamax should kill em. I recommend captain jacks dead bug for almost everything. I don't know what else to say. Let me know whenever you figure this out. Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks for your help!

Did u just up the amount of Cal or mag you're feeding or recover from a cal or mag issue? I've seen something no where near this bad when I first started using coco and I was having ph issues and mag lockout. But when it happened to me only a few leaves looked liked that.

In your 4th pic I see few leaves that have signs of mag def. My gut reaction would be bugs though.

Nope, haven't given them any cal mag. I've only been watering mostly. I've given them nutes twice so far because they're not in the greatest shape at the moment.

The last thing I can think of is wind damage. If it's too close to a fan maybe try switching some plants around.

Hopefully someone will be able to help you more. Good luck
