What are these light specks on the leaves almost shiny looking, most of my grows have had the same thing nearer the end of the grow so im thinking a defeciency, as I lay off the nutes about 3 weeks before the end of my grows. And I only use terra flores and boost.

Hi there Beastmaster. Usually little spots like that are because of calcium deficiency. But if that's the case they're usually rust colored. what i'm seeing here is a slight pest problem, possibly even spider mites. That's because the spots are white-ish, and their edges are sharp, like bite marks sometimes. Check the bottom of your leafs for really microscopic dots. if that's the case try using bacilus thuriengiensis , available at any garden store. These are nematodes that parasite adults as well as larvae and eggs to control and maybe even fix the outbreak completely. Just follow the instructions on the package you get , usually you combine it in the feed as well as a spray, spray a bit less than an hour before lights off for the best results. Hope this helps ! ๐Ÿš€

There are no pests that I can see, and no mottling on underside of leaves.
