I guess it is low phosphorus levels. As I can see the spots are on the lower leaves & the leaf stems are a bit reddish. Hope you could solve it in the meantime. Here is a good reference chart: https://i.redd.it/qhrj8qmjl7az.jpg

Yellow Leaves Autoflower
Novice grower, Outdoor. Started in a 70/30 coco-coir to perlite mix. Forgot Worm Castings until 22nd June, implemented with top dressing of Gaia Green Power Bloom and All Purpose. Overwatered at stem for a week or so. I suspect it's either an N, P ,or K deficiency (nuteburn?)

Problem came back
Hey mates, sup? This week the problem is back, milder than last week but still here. I haven't added anything to the soil yet and I'm worried about it. What do you think it should be? Overfeeding, magnesium, light?

Leaf issue
Got an issue with some leaves turning this colour. Anyone got any input? We are nearly 7 weeks in, growing in compost and only feeding 1ml/ltr. I’ve also attached a picture of the whole plant. Leafs at the bottom seem to be turning, the ones up top all seem a good colour.

Did I over-egg the nutes?
The leaves turned like this after a feed and a Mosquito Bits treatment, guessing I over-egged it with the nutes? Plants getting close to me cropping them, might leave them to dry out from their last water then chop.

Noticed small brown spots kind of center of leaves, noticing some kind of chewed up deformed leaves now. From what I've read it sounds like leaf hoppers? Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Nutrient issue
Wondering if anyone knows what deficiency or excess this could be? Thinking phosphorus deficiency and if so, should we top the main kola here? Or will it fix itself if we fix the nutrient issue? Any advice or entail would be appreciated. Leaves are not dry, soft to touch.

Problem or No?
The leaves have been loosing some of their dark green color between the veins, looks a bit washed out or mottled on both plants. Slow progression over the past couple of days. This is my first grow, any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Should I remove foliage affected by deficiency, or just let it ride?
Autoflower started showing sign of deficiency at week 8. Assuming CalMag, as I filter my water and affected area is new growth at top of plant (see pic). 1) Can someone confirm CalMag deficiency or something else? 2) Should I remove affected leaves or leave them be? Thanks

Orange/rust spots on leaves
Throughout the life of this grow I've seen rust and orange spots on some of the fan leaves. I can't seem to figure out or pinpoint the source of this. I think the plants are in good health overall, I do have a lot of fungual gnats that I'm trying to mitigate

Any ideas on what's going on with NL-2? Fan leaves are discoloring, interesting pattern. From Websites, I'm thinking a potassium problem, but am not sure. And am not sure how to correct this close to harvest (3 weeks give or take). Thoughts?

Should I delay flowering?
The leaves on 2/4 plants have gotten all crinkly and burnt looking. I transplanted 2 days ago and fed yesterday. I'm at 13 weeks in veg and just got the mainline looking like I want it. I was going to go into 12/12 on New Years but should I delay?

What’s with this Odd growth rate and leaf pattern
Stunted growth on 16 day old northern lights auto. 1/3 coco 2/3 fox farms ocean floor. gave it a minor dose of cal mag plus just in case this is a developing deficiency. It has three nodes but it is very small at approximately 1.5-2 inches. The pattern may be genetic?

I'd like to know what happened to my plant but I'm unsure how to properly describe it. The photos in my diary should be able to make it more clean (W18). Maybe it was botrytis but I caught it on time? Or maybe something else? The trichomes got dark orange where all this happened!
