Rotting leaves? Or pests?? Please help

guys today I noticed an unusual problem which seems to have almost happened overnight? My plant has lots of leaves with little holes (looks like caterpillars but upon quick inspection couldn’t find any), and some leaves are rotting.

Now this was an accidental reveg so it’s huge, very very bushy and dense. It has a spider mite problem along with all my others which I’m currently getting under control, but my other plants leaves don’t have holes in them? It is losing lots of leaves in the middle of the plant, which I expect because they aren’t receiving light anymore, but why are the outside ones suddenly affected?

Outdoor grow on balcony. Australia

And the weird thing is there’s 4 plants here, all basically touching and only the middle one is affected with so many holes, they all have spider mites which I’m used to, have had caterpillars before but not to this extent?(if that’s what it is)

Looks like they are getting chewed on by Gypsy moths. Have you seen any little white moths about?

Nutrient issues tend to be present in a symmetrical pattern like an inkblot picture.
Insect damage is more random.

sounds like caterpillars. little worm might be larva or pupae. thrips are also wormlike but thats not thrips damage

If its caterpillars Monterey BT spray will help. Also Might want to invest in a portable 30x scope. You can get one on eBay for $15.
