my little girl (into 2nd true week of veg growth) looked absolutely fine yesterday..and today she still does, except for the fact that on 3 leaves there are small holes as if they have been eaten by insects! now its pretty cold by now here in tn so most insects have burrowed for the winter or died off, though i DO have a few remaining fungus gnats hanging around which im in the process of erradicating at the moment via Azamax (take that shit you little bastards!) anyway i diress....other than the fungus gnats ive not seen any kind of insect or arachind or bug of any kind in, around or near my house or plant! now the holes in the plant, as i said, appear to have been munched on. the holes are small in nature, about as big around as an incense stick and are yellow in the area that looks to have been nibbled and only on the very edge (not far onto the leaf at all) i could be very wrong and it may not be a pest problem at all (thats why im posting in here to find the answer to my quondry) now some info on the environment in which she is growing. ints in fox farm ocean forrest soil, under a 250 hps (about 18" inches away from the plant. plant doesnt get warm at all other than by ambient heat. i. e. its not getting burned by the bulb) i water every other watering with liquid karma, sweet, grow big, big bloom, and oneness. the other watering is from pure distilled water only. so....now the 10,000 dollar question....whats wrong with my plant?! before you ask...no i dont have any pics or a digital camera to take any....(yes im well aware i need to get off my ass and get one lol)

2nd true week of veg?? How many days how tall...Seems like a lot of nutes for such a young plant....Rinse it right away. If it is insects fuck up there enviroment, spray with some water, and keep looking for them. IF no insects then it would seem to be nutes... Just kinda throwin it out there can't do much without pics...Good Luck

shes about 3 1/2 inches tall. but extremely lush, as i topped her above her 2nd true node about a week and a half ago. and it is day 13 of true veg (after 2nd set of leaves started) ive been following the feeding schedule for all of the nutes im giving it to the t and actually going a little on the weak side with the nutes. the tears/nibblings showed up today (this afternoon to be exact, as they werent there this morning) and yesterday the plant was only given distilled water as its in its cycle of water every other day and feeding every other day. as that was its day to be given just water with today being a "feeding" day, if you will. and if it was nute burn would it not be in more places than on just 3 random leaves? not saying you are wrong by any means whatsoever..it might possibly be nute burn. im just wanting to know for sure as well as know why id get that kind of nute burn so as to prevent it in the future. thanks for the reply!!
