xbricoanswered grow question 4 years ago You didn't happen to splash any nutrient on the leaves direct? Notice on one of the leaves there there are a couple bit of the same dry damage but in small spots in the middle...looks like droplets were there...also a few leaf slices tears...no "bugs" in the system that could be eating away at your crop? Finally, when you topped, you used a sterile blade? (No expert, just a few ideas to throw out there!)
