Pest identification please

Hello everyone. Peace and good buds to you this holiday! I have been having this pest issue for probably about a month and I am a little stumped with it. I have sprayed three times now with Captain Jack’s dad bug.It almost appears as if someone is coming into my 10 at night time with a blade and cutting up small parts of my leaves but it has not gotten any worse since it started so I’m thinking it’s maybe one individual bug or something. If you could help me figure this out it would be greatly appreciated thank you everyone. @Covertgrower @Dr.DankThumb420 @Myfriendis410 Also if anyone has any good people to tag in this go ahead it would help me out. image|666x500

Hi
That happened to me last year and the culprit on my plant was a grasshopper and it was hiding in the soil.
I scratched around the soil and found him then I squished him,pesky little critter. :thinking:

Yeah I thought it was something like that honestly that was my guess I saw a big black cricket in the tent last grow I did but still no issues and this grow I am seeing issues but no bugs

And obviously this is an indoor operation

Put a stick taller then each plant in the pots , then put fly paper at the top of stick. What ever it is needs sunlight so when it gets cold they climb those sticks or anything thing that gets it closer to the light. Hope this helps it’s helped mine in the past.

Thank you kindly :pray: Genius stuff indeed.

Looks like you’ve been really hands on with that plant which could lead to mechanical damage as well. And the damage we do to them with our hands can make it look like its chewed on. I wouldnt take any desperate measures as far as top dressing the soil or spraying the plant but just keep a lookout, especially underneath the leafs

At first I was pretty sure it was mechanical damage but after watching it for quite a bit of time I’m pretty sure it’s an organism of some kind in the tent

How strong of a fan & is it blowing directly on the plants? Most of your damage seems to be around your net, I wonder if it could be mechanical as @imSICKkid mentioned. could be the action of the fan making your plant rub on the net.
