Brown spots on bud sites leaves
Spliffliciousstarted grow question 5y ago
Hi all,
Iāve been getting these brown spots in the past 2 weeks, mainly on the top leaves located nead bud sites.
What could this be? Ph is ok, Iāve already tried to flush her, Rh is around 45%.
This is day 65, ~20 more to go. Will this affect the bud formation or quality?

No doubt Cal/Mag Deficiency, check these articles.

Good luck my homie!

I got the same thing on mine after cutting down the calmag. Probably a deficiency for both of us. Mine didn't spread and only stayed on 2 fingers of 1 leaf so I never adjusted anything. It shouldn't hurt bud quality unless it affects most of your leaves. Mine also felt a little sandpapery so give it a rub to see if we're the same.

To me it looks like cal/mag. Deficiency looks similar to toxicity. I notice you are adding it in. Are you using RO water? Maybe try leaving the cal/mag out for a couple of feeds. Still learning a lot myself. Good luck!

What do you think is causing the spotting, leaf curling, and stunted growth in plant #1? My money is on light burn and/or PH issue. I have a PH control kit I've been using to treat the water, but do you think just treating the water is enough? Using FoxFarm HF soil, no nutes yetWeek 2
