I bet its potassium deficiency since the new shoots are also getiing discolored and the discolorement starts at the sides and creeps to the center of the leaf. Watch this for more information:

Brown Patches on Older Leaves
Slight yellowing and brown mottled patches. Only on one of the two plants and they’ve been treated and fed exactly the same. On some older fan leaves, no signs of anything on new growth. Anything to worry about at this stage? Maybe just a sensitive pheno? Any advice appreciated.

Calcium deficiency, cal-mag now in hand, water now, or wait for normal scheduled water? Last water yesterday.
Plants are suffering from an early stage of calcium deficiency, received a bottle of cal-mag today. Watered last night cause I didn't want to wait any longer. Should I wait for my next water (2 more days) or give a single dose of Cal-mag now, to get some calcium to the plant?

Grayish brownish fuzz on sugar leaves
Turned my northern lights plant around today and noticed this on the back of it. Yikes! Is it bud rot, pest damage, something else? If it's bud rot I need to get rid of it ASAP because I have 6 other plants in the same grow room.

Browning tips and lower leaves
Some leaves have a little brown on the tips, and some lowest leaves are turning yellow then brown, although I have been looking it up and it seems to be normal? It's not nutrient burn as I haven't given any. Any clues on what it could be or if I should be concerned?

Would putting off my first feeding for a day or two do this much damage to the plant? I've given it 2 feedings since then and hoping it's on the right track as the new growth is nice and green.
