hi there Habosabin, that's micronutrient deficiency, you're adding silica which is basically optional but you're forgetting calmag which is absolutely necessary in soiless grows. Just add calmag asap . Hope this helps ! 🚀

What issue is this?
I have some dark spots on a few leaves, some looks like a cal or mag def but some are a little hard to identify. What do you think these are? These haven't had nutes, about 25 days old or so, Nectar of the gods #8 fed PH 6.3.-6.5.

Hey guys I'm puzzled i took one picture of a leave from my Royal Ak 47 Auto. As you can see this is not a nice green healthy leaf (many others are like this). What's the issue? Is it worth treatinbg this late in the growing stage? Love to hear your opinion :). Cedji

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

Can anyone help me identify the cause of the rust-colored spots on a couple of these lower leaves? I am guessing some kind of nutrient burn.

Cal/mag def. Or nute burn?
I think I've got a Cal/Mag deficiency going on....or burn....not sure. Rust colored spots developing on leaves between veins. My pics labeled today, 11/9, show the progress. I don't think I'm overfeeding and growth is still progressing. Can anyone confirm?

What's going on with my clones? Do not have much information to add. VPD is not terribly off, DLI around 25.
What's going on with these clones? Not sure what it could be. They could possibly be rootbound. They should have been transplanted a few weeks ago but I did not have the space.
