Should be OK,, you just removed lower fan leaves and side shoots so growth will even out, well done!

Does anyone know what’s going on here?Hey I have the following problem: A week ago, I bought some cuttings from a seller, but they turned out to be infested with thrips. To tackle this, I used yellow sticky traps and watered with nematodes. I also sprayed BAC Plant Vitality Plus on the leaves.

Help, what are those weird yellow spots in late veg?Hello everybody, I've checked in on my plant after I was away from home for 2 day. Now I come back to see these ugly yellow spots? During day 23°C / 55% humid. During night 18°C / 50% humid.
Checked the whole bud, but no insects. My other ideas are mold or stress from the light?Leaves. Color - Yellow

4 times same genetic but one has hanging leavesThe top right plant´s leaves are hanging down since ~10 days. Don´t think it´s because of over-/underwatering, since I water & feed every plant the same and the others are doing great. Was it maybe too stressfull to set the LED from 160W to 240W on 35cm distance when going 12/12?Week 9

Super thin leafs at the TopThe leaves at the top are super thin, different to the others, the leaves are also darker green, I think it has some kind of problem! It looks like I overwatered it because the leaves are drooping, but that's not the case! Can anyone tell me what the problem could be?Week 6
