This is starting to get annoying, I have a few bug beauties growing and every night a few more leaves on each plant get chewed up, definetly a bug, I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this and knows how to control it

Not sure by the patterning. Are your ladies outdoors?

If it's hammering them overnight, could be slugs or snails. If it's a caterpillar of some kind, I would suggest looking into predator bugs like the Damsel Bug or Parasitic Wasps.

Here's a link I found with some good info:

Dig a couple small holes and put a cup with a little soapy water in them. Looks like you got a slug problem. This might capture some so you can identify them.

Also, keeping the area dry with a layer of diatomaceous earth around your ladies can help.
