My first grow, they sprouted on May 25/20 and the pictures are from June 06/20. They got a light rain and the sun burnt them earlier in the week. Are they salvageable or should I just start over? First 4 pictures are of a White fire 43 Auto and the other is a 9lbs hammer Auto. I have 3 other autos that seem to be fine so far. They are outdoors in a screened shelter.

Looks more like some type of insect attacked the leaves.

Using some common sense: If the sun could burn such major holes in leaves just because they have some water droplets on them, we'd see that all the time, it would be common knowledge that water droplets do major damage to leaves in full sun. But that just doesn't happen, which is why I'd suspect insects. Also, looks more like cutting action vs. burnt spots from light focusing.

I hope its not insects. I have yellow sticky traps up but haven't caught or seen any pests yet. Will the plants survive or should I start germinating some more seeds?

Thanks for responding
 
If it were me, I'd cull and replace the worst 2 or 3, with the others not so bad. But wait for better advice, from actual outdoor growers. [I still suspect insect damage].
 
Sure is bug damage . They are getting in so how .

Ok, thanks.

These are the other 3 I have going, 2 Blue Dream and a White Widow.
