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

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

A bunch of different leaf symptoms appeared over just a few hours, can you spot the issue in my detailed diaries and solve the mystery?
Everything was well, until over just a few hours they developed all kinds of symptoms. I have 2 diaries here for the grow, the 2 called “Grow #2” and I am very detailed about what has been done day to day. So please have a look and see if you know what might be happening

Is it infected?
Is it infected, like mildew, or has it just some nutrient problems in the beginning? And the leaves form is just the genetic i guess?

Brown specks on leaves
I've noticed small brown specks appearing on the lower leaves. Does anyone know what might be causing this? I'm struggling to keep heat down and humidity up due to the weather. Could this be the issue or something else?

Spots on yellowing leaves
Brown spots on dying yellow leaves. This has happened on most of my plants after budding so thinking it may be a soil problem. My guess is boron, manganese or phosphorus as the stems on some plants are red. It starts low and eventually ends affecting buds too so I chop.

Hi Growmies, I have some drooping to the edge of leaves and discolouration. I've been watering every two to three days and live in a soft water area. Is this due to under or overwatering or is there possibly a nutrient deficiency. Thank you ✌️

What are these orange spots on my leaves?
Last night I applied Dr. Zymes for the 1st time and this afternoon I noticed these orange spots. This plant had a shell issue when it sprouted which caused the weird curling of the leaves.

Calcium Deficiency Won’t Go Away DWC
So plant #1 is still having some Calcium deficiency issues. I’m using RO water and giving the recommended dose of CaliMagic which is 1tsp(5ml)/gal. I’m in DWC and using LED full spectrum lighting. Why can’t I stop these spots? Should I give more than recommended dose of CaliMagic

Deficiency?
I noticed this spot on one of the fan leaves. It only appeared in the last couple of days. I have been feeding small amounts of calmag and biobloom. I looked at deficiency charts but I’m unsure. What could it be?

What could this be? Deficiency, or pests?
White Crack in coco, currently late veg / pre-flower stage. Canna nutes being fed at EC 1.7 / pH 6.0 with runoff EC 1.3 / pH at 6.2. Noticed this on a single leaf this morning. Only change in last few days is that I am now filtering my water before mixing in nutes. Any thoughts?
