Spider mites don't chomp through leaves like that. That actually looks like cricket damage to me at first glance.

Cant see photos on my end (not sure why) but by saying 3 wks old and saying holes made me think maybe spider mites... but then again you may be right seeing as you can SEE them lol

Yeah there's no sign of mite or thrip damage, but there are huge holes in the leaves.

It's hard to tell because of the blur but I may have found one of the culprits, looks a bit like a slug but that could just be the blur. But this certainly looks like a critter suspiciously near damage.

I would probably go with something like Safer Soap, usually mild enough to not do much harm and should take care of the issue. Maybe Spinosad or something pyrethrum based if the ss doesn't work. A lot of people will recommend neem, but I have had a poor track record with it so I am holding off on the recommendations til I can get it to work for myself haha
 
Lol @Ace Yonder I read about been oil too...but I will definitely get me some safer soap...it's weird bc I'm growing indoors and my home is clean and keep my closet area extremely clean....guess it came from the soul I bought I transplanted them a few days ago

They come from places you would never expect, but yeah even in pristine conditions the safe money says that where there is soil there are critters. I just recently got a bout of thrips on my exclusively indoor plants, was baffled as to where they came from, but a week or two of spraying with hydrogen peroxide has seemingly done the trick, I think it screws with their eggs or something. But yeah, i hope the soap works! Your plants look very good other than the damage, which is pretty minor in the grand scheme of things.
 
Thanks...I am trying lol...I'm glad u got rid of ur pests...and hopefully I'll get rid of these earwigs...weevils or whatever they are
