My plant has holes in her leafs

I’m growing my plant indoor with a 65w light, I know its not that powerfull but they gifted it to me and I wanted to try it as its my first time, the plant is 2 weeks old and im noting this holes forming on the younger leafs like literally holes from side to side in the last 3 days these hole are increasing really fast with this im noticing leafs that get like “glued” together and like thin strips of cobweb on the leafs but in all this I can’t find any bug or egg I watched everywhere on the plant and around the pot but I can’t find a single bug i tryed using sticky traps and neem oil but it doesn’t look to work the temperature is around 27/31C and humidity is around 30 to 50% im growing in soil and i water when the soil is dry usually around 3/4 days from the last watering the soil is the light mix from biobizz and I used the easy boost from royal queen seeds. I want to know if i can do something to get ris of these spider (i think they are Spiders bc of the cobwebs) pls help me.

I'll just about guarantee you've got a small caterpillar cruising around. Many of them spin "webs" and fold the leaves together, then they sit in there and feed, then they'll move to a new spot. I would spray with BT, it works well on caterpillars and it's very safe..

What’s BT?

Its most likely feeding when the lights are off. If you have a headlamp with a red light I bet you can catch it.

BT stands for Bacillus thuringiensis, a type of bacteria that produces a toxin that is toxic to certain insect pests, particularly caterpillars. BT is commonly used as a biological pesticide in agriculture and gardening to control caterpillar populations.

Here's how it works:

1. Spray the plant with BT.
2. Caterpillars ingest the bacteria while feeding on plants.
3. The toxin produced by the bacteria kills the caterpillars.

BT is considered a safe and environmentally friendly alternative to chemical pesticides, as it:

- Specifically targets caterpillars, minimizing harm to other beneficial insects.
- Is biodegradable and non-toxic to humans and other animals.
- Can be used in organic farming and gardening.
