Some brown spots showing on the top sugar leaves. I suspect it is due to the cooling fan of the light blowing down hot air?
I've adjusted the fans to blow air directly over the top of the main cola's and I increased the light distance.

Hi Tweet, great grow , really healthy throughout ! What I think happened is that the lamp to plant distance is a bit short so the top of the plant reacted to that. you can see the top leaves cupping from the heat and the stress, and that's where the browning is coming from. Adjust your lights higher to deal with the heat and light stress and it should recover quickly. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Black spots spreading // Need your help!Anyone got a clue what this dark spots could be? It started in a corner of the tent with 1 plant a few weeks ago and now it has spread to another. I suspect pH issues and a nutrient lockout bc of that. Not sure if its the same issue though..Could be an infection as well...Leaves. Color - Dark-brown

Calcium deficiencyI already had a question a week ago, now it's easier to see, camera still bad.
But here are some fan leaves which I believe are showing a calcium deficiency.
Calmag is in the post, just waiting for it.
Is it for sure a calcium deficiency only? Thoughts?Leaves. Color - Dark-brown

Brown spot on leave. 6 weeks into flowering. -Temp 27'C day 25'C night- HD 65% day 75% night . Soil PH 6.5-7.00. Water always at 6.5-6.8ph.I just flush it 4 days ago because I think it got calmag lockout since I always give them around 5ml of calmag every watering. I only water when 2inch top soil dry with 1.5L of ph balance water. Not a fungus or anything that grow because It cannot be rub or remove from outside.Leaves. Color - Dark-brown

I water with 50% distilled and 50% rain OR 50% distilled and 50% tap. I have fed once with Grow Big and it happened right after. Might have rubbed nozzle on the underside of the leaves. I water every 2-3 days and water until drop of runoff appears in tray. How much runoff?Week 3
