Any idea what these spots are on leaves

If every other aspect of the plants health is looking normal and these spots are isolated and not wide spread or spreading to lots of fan leaves I don’t think you have much to worry about. Just make sure to avoid any extremes in your cultivation practices.

Pests would congregate on the underside of the leaves (generally). If you have looked closely and if anything appears the least bit suspect use a magnifying glass to be sure nothing is hiding under there.

That looks like thrips or leaf miner damage. I have had those and that is exactly the way the damage looked. I did nothing and the small problem was taken care of by predators.
Para, this is just my 2 cents. I am not an entomologist.

Nor am I!! Lol. Some things in my experience warrant the “ if it ain’t broke don’t fix it attitude”. SOME things. Definitely be vigilant on looking for those bugs though because the ones you suggested can be very hard to spot the actual critter that the damage suggests. You may b right on the $

It’s happened on this grow and last one. It’s never wide spread and doesn’t affect growth as I can tell. I got a plant a week old and already has a spot like this on it. That’s why I’ve posted. I’ve checked for pest but not with a magnifying glass or anything

If you could post a few more pictures and make sure they’re Focused as well as you can that would be helpful. Actually that would be very helpful sometimes the differences can be very subtle so good pictures can make the difference.

It appears that the leaves are being eaten by some type of pest.I always use organic neem oil mix it up in a garden type sprayer that will aerosolize the mixture onto the leaves and soil. I do this as a regular precaution on every new grow whether I think I have bugs or not. My main concern is usually fungus gnats because of my organic soil

The plants are still small I take it. It doesn’t look like Past or disease damage to me. That is just an opinion though. When I see similar types of things as long as they’re not chronic and showing up on more leaves than not I believe your plant will grow out of it just fine. Small environmental stressors can have a subtle impact on leaves surfaces and the like. If the growth is normal and there’s no funky curling or burning tips And no type of pattern to the blemishes I would keep on Truckin and just make sure to keep everything balanced no extremes one way or the other. If you’re giving it proper nutrition not too much not too little you are making sure to get a little dry back before watering again with a little run off each time you’re fine. This is very general I’m trying to avoid asking you every little detail of your grow. If the issue persists bordering on unsightly then I think it would be worthwhile to delve into it much further. And I’m sorryIf that doesn’t help you much sometimes there’s just a really fine balance between doing too much and too little if you want to be right there in the middle

Another thought if your plants are large enough have at least four nodes give them a Foliar dose of Neem which would act as a broad preventative. If something is there that can’t be noticed yet then it does not have a foothold whatsoever in something like name could very well get her a test from taking hold. It has a little food value and other benefits as well. There’s other products that do the same thing.
