Looks pretty normal for flower stage, not sure about seed genetics. Check the pH of the soil and stop feeding nutes if you are. Give a flush for the plants sake and have a pH around 6 👍👊

Gray leaves on buds with a massive concentration of trichomes. What is it?
No clue what this is. Light gray leaves, tons of trichomes. I'm a bit confused here. Should I just cut the buds that look like this to be safe? Or is this normal?

Black marks on leaves of a slow grower.
Noticed there's black markings on the edges of the leaves on our slowest growing plant. My initial thought was water droplets sitting on it before it had fully broken out or could it be something else?

RunWithIt
Popped up around last week (week 4, monday). Prior to week 4, i had been watering with tap water, which in my area is pretty hard.(7.8+ pH) Been correcting pH to 6.8 with each watering since. (2 waterings since then.) Should i just continue feeding 6.8 pH water or add cal-mag?

greyish leaftips and dieing branches after topping
the highest branches died after topping. It looks to me like they had the same symptoms like some new upper branches are developing now. It looks very dark & feels soft Temps were 17-19°C & Humidity was 90%+ Water should be PH5.9, think ph reader might be wrong and ph is too low?

Today I noticed 🍄mushrooms popping up with GiSCele. Does that matter? Are they🍄poisonous to girlies? Don’t bother me,but I dunno🤔. I recently started using 🦇 bat guano and have a feeling that’s what encouraged- kinda cool if I see Smurfette sunbathing on 👙🆒👍🏼

Bud leaves turned black
Top leaves turned brown overnight, That day I did come home to a disturbing temp off 31oC . It’s the black Mini leaves in buds that are worrying me more. lights came on accidentally for two hours so gave her 16hrs dark and back to 12/12 This may have contributed.

Black spots?
Is this a deficiency, nutrient burn, or disease, growing in MG soil, recovering from overwatering as well.

Nutrient Burn, Leaf Septoria, Nutrient Deficiency? Or something else?
I have been having issues with the Purple Haze. I've tried adjusting the Temperatures, adding additional Cal-Mag, changing lumen intensity etc. I believe this may be nutrient burn? Added an old image of leaf before mainlining, the plant is 1 week old after mainlining was done.
