What causes these holes and what would I spray the turk's cap with to get rid of the numerous holes on the leaves.

I've seen grasshoppers around mine. Not sure if the holes I have were created by them, but I wouldn't be surprised. Those darn things just about stripped a cigar plant clean of it's leaves. I'm not always fast enough to catch them....

yep, grasshoppers are feasting on mine. But they're still thriving even with the holes.
