Discoloration and patches on the top sugar leaves
Leaves circled have gone lime green to yellow with the dark and light spots shown in the image. Is it light burn, wind burn or something more sinister?!

Light schedule
I am doing an outdoor grow and also have a grow room set up for germination. Outside is only getting about 14 hours of light, is it beneficial to bring my girls in under my LED's for 4 hours to make sure they're getting a full 18 hours of light? then bring them back outside

Good T5HO flower combo, 3000K and PureBloom? http://www.growagromax.com/products/t5-grow-lamps/t5-pure-series/agromax-pure-bloom-t5-high-output-grow-lamp/
Thanks to all for your great advice! This is my first grow, currently in veg wk 5, using 8 x 6500K, 4’ T5HO. Flipping to flower in 2-3 wks, will use 4 x 3000K tubes and planning to get 4 AgroMax Pure Bloom tubes. Is 50/50 mix of 3000K and Pure Bloom a good combination of light?

Thoughts, good idea or bad idea?
I got an idea from when I was pruning pecan trees growing up. If I install small LED lights directly inside each "window" or "pocket" will that improve total light and production, or will I just burn the plants?
