In your situation i would guess your soil is too nutritive and they start to get a lil bit of a burn or lockout of primary nutrients.

Light burn and overwatering are most likely.

Brown spots on the Gold Leaf?
Brown spots with light yellowing. Possibly calcium deficiency? This is only happening on the Gold Leaf. Neither of the GDPs are showing these signs. This has happened over the last 2-3 days.

Light burn
I've got what I think is light burn. I can't dim or raise my LED lights (300w), but I'm currently running them 24/0. Would switching to 18/6 help? Or would it help to take the burned plant and have it out in natural light during the day? I'm growing autos and they're flowering.

On two of the oldest plants their first true leaves are turning a yellowish color and every cotyledon appears to be yellow now. Is this due to watering or too much light or something?

Is this Nitrogen deficiency?
Is this Nitrogen deficiency? Mainly the lower leaves colored light green into yellow and just burst off. Now a few bigger leaves thought the plants are following the same pattern.

Droopy leaves, weird spots.
Does anyone know what's wrong with that bottom left plant? Those spots appeared pretty soon after I cleaned those filters. I'm thinking that it's a stress caused by that cleanse, no chemicals or such were used, but some roots were torn in the process. Deficiency? Disease?

Fading? Time to start flushing?
There’s a few plants starting to show some yellowing in the bigger fan leaves, I haven’t started flushing yet and am wondering if now is the time to start? I’m almost at the end of week 6 of flower, strains unknown. Also pretty sure that’s light stress/burn so I moved her away.

Light green leaves and more
This just snuck up on my - don’t ask me how. To me it looks kinda like late stage something... what is it and what do I do? The colour is lime, stem is purple (but it’s been like that for the entire flowering period) and there’s some brown colour too.

I'll just leave this here.
Only a few leaves, but should I be worried? Last few waters have only had calmag to see if that helps.
