Hi there, to me it seems like the start of a cal mag deficiency. Before adding anything first check your ph range. May be it is there but its not accessible, which will lead to more problems. So first of all check your ph and then if it is within the proper range then add cal mag. Boron deficiency or zinc or any other micro element deficiency is most of the time accompanied by more serious problems which would be seen. If ph range is within the proper range and cal mag is the issue, those leaves wont bounce back but the spots will stop.

I’m growing 3 NL Auto Fem , by Growers Choice. I had the same problem right before she started to Bloom. I Have one indoors ( fox farm nites) and 2 outside ( organic )wanted to see the difference. I did give my indoor Girl a shot of cal mag thought the same thing, spots gone Buds arrived. This is my first indoor grow so I am learning as I go. Check out my NL and the pic I have of my leaf before and after might help ✌️🌱✌️ Other wise your plant is #dope I will be following you to see how she turns out #peace

Hi inner cal / may add before the nutrients Best if you have osmosis water and mix the stale water for 24 hours (after 24 hours the chlorine has evaporated somewhat) to an Ec value of 0.2. Then add Cal / Mag until the Ec is 0.4. This is your source of water

could be boron def? if your nutrients aren't complete, you need supplements. bad products require supplements. i had a calcium/magnesium deficiency 2 different times. 1st time in soil while using trashy FF products. 2nd time when i switched to coco and used a cheap, ill-prepared brick that falsely advertised. if cal-mag is all you have to add, which seems not to be the case, look for a more compelte feed. otherwise, they'll always have somethign they can market to you... that you need and should have been in the first product you bought in the first place.

@MadeInGermany Hi, thanks the kindness :D I do add 1ml/L of cal-mag from GHE, but I haven't testes my EC before adding it. By the way, should I add Cal-Mag before or after the other nutrients?

Hey, I wouldn't worry so much for now ;-). your plants look great and your environment is perfect 😍🙏🏻. How much cal / mag do you add to that, how much does the ec increase afterwards?
