Hello everyone. This is my first outdoor grow and my first autoflower grow. I have previously grew two plants indoor so i have a pretty good idea of what to expect during flower for a photo period plant. At first glance I think my plant looks really healthy and has responded well to LST. I only used LST and no form of HST.
Two days ago I noticed my plant was a little under watered and upon doing so i observed some little tiny wholes and a couple of leaves. Upon my observation I believed it do be some sort of insect chewing at the leaves but not to excessively at this point. I have taken a picture of the insect that might be the cause of the problem.
Ultimately I believe the plant is still really healthy, but the bud set seems to be taken a little longer than expected. I noticed the flower started to set in about a week ago and preflowers were present a little over a week. Please let me know what yall thing and if you have any advice.
The plants are being fed with Gai Green 4-4-4 during veg and amended with their 2-8-4 bloom a couple days ago. I also gave the plants a basic worm casting compost tea a couple days before I amended the bloom nutrients.
The strain name is called Blueberry Bliss Auto. Purchased from GYO seedbank.

I know your post was awhile ago and u probably Harvested smoked and had couple more cycles by now but figured I'd put that in anyways since it still shows up others might be able to get this its this app atleast if have android idk about iPhone how to search photos but next year if a single branch starts dying its probably a grasshopper I know that's not your problem but just so u know I'm trying to get this out there but they will chew a small circle around the stem it'll be really thin like size of a penny but it generally kills the branch rest way up. What I do is tape the stem if it's into flower, if still in veg I'll cut the branch off then cut out spot they chewed off then splice plant back together and it actually mends and will keep growing!
