Overwatering is most likely. If you're giving nutes already, she may be burnt. Nutes usually start towards the end of week 3. Last possibility is bleaching from the light being too close. They don't really need a lot of light at this point.

Yellowish spots ? Magnesium Deficiency ?
I noticed that on some leaves (not the new ones) there were 2-3 yellowish spots. And on a large leave, a point that turns brown. I thought about a small deficiency in Magnesium?

Small red spots on top canopy leaves week 4 of flower
Deficiency of some kind. Leaning more towards a calmag shortage or even a phosphorus deficiency? Any thoughts? Small red spots with minor yellowing of leaves in week 4 of flower.

Older leaves are yellowing, brown/red rusty spots, dying tissue, red stems.
Older leaves have brown/red rusty spots and looks like dying tissue in between the veins. Burnt tips, and yellowing leaves. The soil was really dry and my PH meter was 0.4 too high. I gave each plant 3L of water with EC: 0.0 PH: 6.4 to check runoff. Runoff was PH: 6.1 EC: 0.8

Yellowing of top fan leaves
What is causing yellowing of the top fan leaves? Started to happen to a plant that I broke by accident during LST. However around the same time I upped to 2ml/l and moved the light a little closer. My ph has also been high (fine now). No idea which one could be the culprit
