It looks like they (leaves) are touching soil? That could be your problem.

it could be from what others have said or it could be ph fluctuation.

as the leaves are close to the growung its very possible to me that you splattered some feedingsolution on them=? dont worry, just let them grow, and if they have wilted, take them away

Soil issues, yransplant or not?
Should I amend the soil mix with a seed start mix right around the seedling? I think the soil is too hot. If so, how to achieve this without transplant?

Any ideas on this?
I'm guessing this is some sort of deficiency. Some of the spots are rust like and occur and young and old leaves. Any opinions? Advanced Nutrients 3 part. No supplements.

The yellow spots that were seen last week have multiplied and started to appear on newer leaves. I should mention my tap water E.C is 0.8 so quite high. I still however added calmag this at it seems to look like a calcium deficiency. Are they to young for one though? Thank you

leaf spots and curl
I have a few leaves with some spots and a few that have a side that curls. What do you guys think? Right now I'm just using Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil and water - I'm planning on adding nutrients this week. Will that solve these issues?

Having persistent yellow/brown spots on my leaves. Took a close up picture to show them better. I adjusted my nutrient schedule to increase phosphorus content. pH is checked daily. What else can I do to eliminate the problem?

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same. I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…

White/Yellow snipes on leaves? (13th day of growth from seed)
I noticed a huge change in my plant leaves in less than 24 hours. The leaves look like they are getting burned out. What is happening? I'm uploading pictures to see the problem and also the growth conditions. I'm watering once every 1 or 2 days (PH = 6.0). Not using nutrients yet

Leaves fading and dying, started from bottom but spreading
I’m starting to be at a loss with this. Calmag issues earlier in veg, seemed to improve for a while but now bottom leaves started to die - I thought this was just due to beginning of flower but it’s getting worse and spreading even to healthier new growth. PH (should be) fine.

Weird leaves
The leaves of my plant look strange, I'm not sure if it's CalMag or something else. I recently overfertilized the plant a little..... I am also fighting tripes on the plant at the moment Could it also be the PH value? Thank you :)

Ca,Mg,Fe,Cu,ect deficiency?
If anyone can see the third or fourth picture there is a decent shot of a deficiency. It's some immobile nutrient like Ca,Mg,Fe,Cu, ect. I just can't figure it out, been supplementing with CalMag fog almost 2 weeks? Any suggestions? Possibly Cu deficiency?

Mottling
From the moment the first leaves started growing they've had this weird mottling. Only environmental prob is my temps occasionally hit 84f, mostly it's around 78f. Every leaf grows in like this. I had 1 other plant do this, turned out mostly male herm from a fem seed.

How do you harvest in hydro (drip system with a tank) when some are late ?
Half of the plants are late (chlorosis, iron toxicity, nitrogen overfd) on a scrog net. As individual flush is impossible, I guess I have no choice than having different batches of ambered trichomes ! And I thought about different strains next time, sweet dreams...

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

Lower fan leaf vs upper fan leaf in the canopy. The difference in pigmentation is wild! It almost looks like its bleeding. . , , , . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ?Why?
