Hey guys! Thanks for viewing and helping me out. I got 2 auto flowers that are a month old.

I think that’s mos the info needed. So recently I noticed little holes on my leaves so I ordered a microscope to see if it was pest but couldn’t find any crawling around. I have tried everything and researched everything with no definitive answer. I’m hoping with some nice pictures you guys would be able to help me out. Much appreciated!

I see a few holes so that's something you should be able to see flying around since they are not on the leaves. Good news not hemp mites!

I suggest cutting all the lower leaves that are close or touching the soil line and remove them with a clean pair of snippers/trimming shears. Be sure and keep all your tools clean and don't touch your plants unless absolutely needed and wash your hands first and after. Basic stuff on the cleaning. Yes its the same shit in the garden cept now we need to do it everywhere. lol

Not an emergency... looks like maybe you have a caterpillar
or 2 working in there. Look around.

Thanks for the advice! Definitely a slight relief as I’ve been freaking out for the last couple days. Didn’t know we had to be so sanitary with them I’ll start from now on! I appreciate the help man. Any idea what the dark spots are ? Maybe a fungus or something not sure
 
Don't under estimate the damage a few caterpillars can do. Find them and get rid of them as you see fit.

Black spots likely from leaves touching the soil. The soil microbes want to eat leaves and why its a good practice to keep leaves off the soil line and that will also promote air flow which is very important.
 
I trimmed up all the leaves that were close and touching the soil. I checked through the whole plant and no catepillars. Not sure what’s eating them but I misted them hard and I’m getting some agromagen to spray them down with to prevent anything else.
