Leaf holes

Hello everyone thanks for checking out my post. I started to notice more and more of my foliage has holes starting to form. I took a good look at them and cant see anything munching. I guess I will neem them more often and maybe get some bug spray? Any suggestions appreciated thanks

This product also works for caterpillars, not the same, but a wider variety of pests and bugs.

Go down to the local garden supply store and buy a box of ladybugs. (Outdoor grows only) Spread them over your plants. Any bugs will soon be dinner. Once the food is gone, the lady’s move outward looking for more. Many Gardners re-introduce ladybugs every year. They will eat 95% of anything that’s on your plants and doesn’t belong.

I will definitely give that a shot! What if its grasshoppers tho lady bugs cant kill that? Its weird I haven’t seen any bugs on them but spraying then lady bugs is the plan thanks👍

Grasshoppers are a whole different kind of problem. Best thing for em, feed them to some big 'ole fish.

Bruh you need more then lady bugs lol lady bugs won’t always hang in your outdoor grows. We use them inside but I’d get the Spinosad or that capt jacks. Neem oil will deter on some bugs too.
Regarding lady bugs, adults eat but not like there larvae the larvae eat twice as much as adult lady bugs therefore when you buy them there already adults so you have to buy twice as many.
I know people use 7dust on leaves but can’t on buds. :v:t2::sunglasses::v:t2:

Good question, do you have flowers yet? That can change what you use.

Don’t spray your plants and then introduce ladybugs! If you spray your plants,it will kill any ladybugs that you release on them afterwards

Just starting veg? Or did you mean flower?
If you are in flower mode, there is not much you can use.
This is what we use. You can use it at half strength during flower stage.
