What is this?!

Growing in Natures living soil/Promix.
Plants were recently topped.. also have had some flying insects in the tent notice the hole on one of the leaves.. I’ve been top dressing with DE and they seem to be mostly gone

Bump

Looks like a 2 headed plant...you did top it right?

You won't eliminate the fungus gnats this grow. Or very unlikely without more measures.

Starts look good. The appearance to me looks like they are starting to utilize more ferts.

i hope you’re right and this is just the girls starting to grow more vigorously. But unfortunately I don’t think that’s the case. Today they look worse. The leaves are starting to tiger claw, And the yellowing is worsening At the tips and down the sides of the leaves.

Also I noticed a few yellow stripes going through the middle of the leaves and one rip in the leaf. At first glance I thought the whole was from a bug or something. but the shape and size of the hole is identical to these yellow stripes. Are my fan leaves bursting at the seams!?!

I need a blunt.

Is it possible you're watering too often? How do you go about watering?
From here, looks like a pretty big pot for the plant's size, easy to overwater.

Im not sure honestly, although I’ve done my research this is my first time using a living soil, and it’s my understanding the soil needs to stay moist continuously to support the microbial life in the soil.
when I used salt based liquid nutes I would let the soil dry to let the roots stretch searching for water, then water.
at the moment I’m watering about 1 gallon every other day considering a full grown plant would be taking about 2-2 1/2 gallons a day/ every other day in my experience with 5 gallon fabric pots.

Sounds like you're watering too frequently. Give it longer between. See how they go.

Watering until you get some runoff is important, as it ensures proper soil saturation, helps remove unwanted silts and dissolved solids.
If you're worried about microbes, top soil drying out etc, and growing organically I'd use a mulch.
Pea straw, sugarcane mulch, something like that.
Soil that's watered too frequently will encourage an anaerobic environment, hinder your microbial herds.
Hinders soil aeration. Causes root rot.

Stoner question...if we're trying to cultivate a mostly "aerobic" environment for our plants, then what's wrong with letting the soil dry some?
What is overly dry? Within reason.

Just a little update
