Any webs on the underside of the leaves? Looks to me like something is eating them
Definately bugs. Maybe catepillars, i had a big problem with those lil' bastids last season. Sometimes they are very very small, and like to lodge up and chill in the buds. I wont forget the time i was about to take a hit... and a catepillar crawls up as im bringin the lighter to hit the bowl.

Hope you never have to smoke potentially caterpillar infested bud again

Well, I watch alot of CSI and this needs to be looked at with a forensic eye....lol. I'll take a stab at it.
The white/yellow spots are caused by an insect that pierces the leave and sucks the juice out.
The ragged looking munched out spots seem too ragged to me to be caterpillars. Their munch marks are semi-circular and more even looking.
I think you have two culprits there cause we're looking at two different methods of munching.

Been spraying them with anything. I have seen young plants do that when they were sprayed with neem or insecticide. The younger leafs can't handle being sprayed and when the grow larger they look like that after they recover. That just looks similar to what happend to me when I sprayed young plants, it kinda stunted some leaf growth.

That's a good point. It does look a bit wrinkled.

I'm turning in my badge.....lol.
Seems like a variety of problems, like bugs and a deficiency...
Looks like the beginnings of a zinc deficiency or lockout, perhaps iron? I really couldn't tell ya until we were smoking right there and maybe not even then????

wow, thanks for all the ideas, well she's been constantly battling with grasshoppers, but there aren't any webs of any sort... i have sprayed it with a habanero/soap/water mixture which seems to work quite well, but i know what that looks like when it buns a plant i've already over done it once, i'll get a pic up of it later. zinc def? possibly, she gets fed quite well organic ferts (age old organic) switched to a bloom/kelp mixture for phosphorus potassium, and micros. i feed once a week with about a half power reccomended dosage. LG also suggested it could be nematodes... i'm not sure but i'll do some investigating. prolly not fungus, live at a higher altitude with about avereage humidity of around 15% - 30% or so... thanks Peace & Love -A

here's a pic of the pepper spray burn...
it got rinsed right away once we noticed it was burning, initially before the rinse it was starting to turn black frightening to say the least... in moderation it keeps 'hoppers and other insects away pretty effectively Peace & Love -A
