Over the last week I've noticed some strange things going on with my plants. Here is my set-up.

Growroom: Secret Jardin DR80
Light: T5 6 bulb floro on 18/6 photoperiod
Temp: Daytime 75 deg. / night 67 deg.
RH: 70%
Plants: Dr. Atomic BBxNL started from seeds from a self pollenated hermie
Age: 5 weeks in veg. I cut clones almost a week ago.
Hydro: DWC in 5 gal buckets
Nutes: Lucas formula GH micro/bloom
Water: RO
PH: 5.9
PPM: 550-750

A few of the leaves on both plants have smal holes or tears on them.

This is also happening on the new growth.

I've also noticed a watery or moisture buildup underneath a few overlapping leaves.

I have seen no pests or incects on thier leaves. What could be causing this? Overall, the plants seem heathy. I've searched the infirmary formus for info, but can't figure out what is going on.

The water on your leaves are normal that is transpration they will do this in veg if your RH is low they are rying to compensate for the low air moisture but the other looks like pest damage but you say you have seen no pest hmm.. i dont know
good luck bro

The room humidity has been around 70%. So I'm not sure why they would be doing this. Also I agree that pest damage could be the reason for the tears and holes in the leaves, but I've even used a magnifying glass to inspect the plants and garden and haven't seen any bugs.

Thanks for help. I'm going to spray them down with some neem oil to kill any pests that could be doing this. I want to put them in flower later this week
 
to be honest, I've seen similar tears before, it resembles what I'd call wear and tear from bumping into something, a leaf squished between pots, a watering cup bumped into it, etc etc etc.

I'm not sure it's a bug. Though the new growth tears are disturbing/hard to place.
