Looks like calcium and magnesium deficiency, do you use calmag in your water?

@JohnQPublic1917, You cant tell from the pics, but it added some green back to the leaves.

@Catova, did the epsom salt do the trick?

Looking good man! I would suggest perhaps raising your lights on temps during this phase of the grow. I am sure they are growing healthy but your growth rate will be affected by lower temps like this at this phase of development. for 300W lights, I would like to myself see them a bit closer to those plant tops. I would suggest if you do not have it already, Grab a PAR meter & a thermal heat gun to read the tops of those ladies and help push your lights to the maximum of their potential. I recommend these to all growers, Early flower up to weeks 4 through 6 depending on strain we like to aim for low to mid 80's to help form up nice big bud sites. After that period it is best to drop to low 80s mid-70s to form those buds uptight and dense. It is important to make sure your temps do not change more than 9 degrees in veg & early flower then after the plants are done growing vertically in flower you can widen that gap up to help dense the buds up more and develop more resin. I would say those signs on the leafs are PH-related. There are good charts on the internet if you do some searching that will show you how if you go out of the sweet spot with your PH either low or high how it will begin to affect your plant's intake. I hope these tips help you out keep up the good work! If you get the time please make sure you check out my diary & give my profile a follow take care man and happy growing.

@Catova, I would honestly not recommend anything cheaper, it's not something you want to be messing with without absolute accuracy. I use the Apogee for reading my PAR. Although I would try and get the model that has a corded sensor attached to it. I originally got this one that I linked to you. However, it was by mistake on the shipper's part since I ordered the corded version but they sent me the cordless. But out of my experience of using both, I really recommend the corded over the cordless. https://www.amazon.com/Instruments-Affordable-Compact-Original-Quantum/dp/B081Y4R487/ref=ex_alt_wg_d?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B081Y4R487&psc=1&pd_rd_w=20iWz&pf_rd_p=4e1b46a8-daf9-4433-b97e-d6df97cf3699&pf_rd_r=B9PQ5PD9BESA4MD5ERFX&pd_rd_r=7752a5a2-93ba-4ba2-87a4-88bc539e2a21&pd_rd_wg=UY7VI and the Therm Gun to check the top plant temperatures is called a Fluke 59 max https://www.amazon.com/Fluke-59-Max-Infrared-Thermometer/dp/B00GNK0RKY/ref=pd_sbs_2/147-1875459-7272529?pd_rd_w=sMj6i&pf_rd_p=3676f086-9496-4fd7-8490-77cf7f43f846&pf_rd_r=6VAQ6B5T06K3GT6BPXNP&pd_rd_r=ea3f26a4-c846-4036-a9e2-36c975dd60d9&pd_rd_wg=YcjFF&pd_rd_i=B00GNK0RKY&psc=1

@LegacyMarketFarm, Thank you for your response, do you have a PAR meter thats not too pricey you would recommend?

Just have in mind, how fungus spreads, it's air !!! Change cloth when you will sort this girl and put her safe and dry away to finish, cardboard box not bad idea, it doesn't look like all is infected, but you never know ... Still make wire strings and hang in smaller branches. Use magnifying glass when they will dry out . Mold could be mistaken with thrichs. Don't infect other girls !
