As always, check your pH levels before trying to fix any nute issues 👌

What stage are your plants in?
If in mid to late flower, I would say you're using too many bloom nutes and locking out calcium that way. Seems to be a common problem.

What is going on with these leaves?Tips of top leaves slightly brown, no curling. We had some hot days where humidity was kept low, but heat from dehumidifier plus outside temps got up to 91f. Some leaves at top have strange marks a bit concerned. Living soil, Marphyll, bat guano, molasses only.5y ago

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 youWeek 3

Small brownish spots forming on lower leaves. Need help with diagnoses!Hi all. Just migrated plants to new tent/fan. I have much better environmental conditions. Now I have these leaf spots. I've included recent measurements. I was going light on the CaliMagic using 1/2 tsp per gallon. Is that my issue? Roots look good. Thanks everyone!Week 4

Weird yellow / brown dots on leafHi fellow growers! I have some weird yellow/brown dots starting to appear on one of the leaves. Some leaves are also starting to claw up. What am I doing wrong? Nute burn? I already started to dial back the nutes. Any help is greatly appreciated for me and my sick ladyWeek 9

Recurring Cal Mag issuesI’m already at the maximum recommended cal mag dose of 1ml/litre (with nutes at 1000ppm or E.C. 2.0) and I’m still facing issues.
It went away for a few days, but it’s now back.
Should increase the cal mag dose and cut back on the macro nutes to maintain 1000ppm?5y ago

Orange/rust spots on leavesThroughout 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 mitigateWeek 8

Discolouration of some leavesIs the colouration of these leaves someone to worry about? She’s a young, 2 week old Wedding Cheesecake auto and I’m new to growing and just want to make sure she’s ok! She’s growing in a 70/30 split of coco and soil and has only been fed water so far! Is it nute time?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Hydroponics, i need a second or third pro opinion. Just a Deficiency? bad pH? (I alreadt did a partial water reservoir change tho)Yoyoyo! If someone of knowledge could help me here, I would be grateful
So I think it's a Magnesium deficiency, caused either from my too low pH (5.2) or too much CalMag (only used 1,5ml on 10L)
I gave a more in-detail description on my diary. lower leafs are "crispy", not smoothLeaves. Color - Mottling
