So it's my first grow, was by accident really( random seeds from good smoke) in a garden. I haven't messed with food or soil, seems to be growing too good to mess with it. My question is this, a few of the large leaves have holes or very dry "muddy" spots on them. Doesn't look too major, but I'm afraid of spraying any bug juice on them. Should I just let them go the way they are and not worry too much? or should I look more into spraying them? Thanks for any help

No worry too much.
Without picture or basic information, I'll take a leap and guess that what you are seeing is caused by Leafminers.
Look close. Is it a blotch, or a twisting trail?
Trail?
Leafminers.
They attack only older leaves and don't do much direct damage.
Spraying poison is not advised in this case.
I just hard pinch the trail end with my fingernail to kill them, and call it done.:smokin:
Pinch 'em, Dan-o!:D
(Which end is da front end? Ah dunno. Squeeze both ends.:))
