My plants are dead

Hi all,

 

I had 4 seedlings growing inside in my autopot hydro system. The looked pretty nice and were all about 6 inches high with 3 or 4 pairs of leaves.

 

On morning I thought some of the leaves looked a little pale, but did not think too much about it.

 

Next morning I noticed so leaf damage in the middle of the leaves. Small holes had been made in the leaves but some veins still spanned the holes. I also noticed small black dots which I soon figured out was caterpillar shit! I then found a few a small caterpillars that are now in caterpillar heaven. :D

 

I sprayed the plants with white oil / pyrethrum mix, but the plants did not seem to get better. I could see no more caterpillars but the leaves seemed to be losing their chlorophyll (so it seemed), like there was something inside the leaf eating it from the inside. I could see not bugs or mites.....

 

I have 2 more seedlings going and want to avoid this fate!

 

Any ideas? Thanks!
