Brown spots
I'm having what I think is a cal deficiency. Ive been using calmag for a week or so now. Just curious if this will ruin my end results? It looks pretty bad. Buds still look nice though. Any thoughts?

Carencia de Mg
Hojas en forma de bandera con manchas amarillas, sin dudas carencia de Mg, el problema es que no se que lo provoca, haré un estudio de acidez al suelo para estar seguro, pero dejo el hilo abierto a cultivadores más experimentados por si me podrían dar una mano con esto

First time DWC, day 70, 3 weeks in flower. Nasty rusty spots appear on lower leaves. Is this CalMag or else? Please help understand and fix, thank you :)
I'm using TA Tripart, current EC is 1.6 - ph 5.5-6.5. Everything was smooth until week 10. Two weeks ago I started adding Plagron Power Buds and Green Sensation. Yesterday added CalMag to see if it helps, but it doesnt seem to... She drinks a lot, ph mostly goes down, EC static

Nutrition deficiency or nute solution on leaves during watering?
Hi Growmies,during my monitoring routine I found some brown spots on the leaves. Not many but on some leaves the brown spots have become transparent and I can see through the leaves. Any ideas what could have caused the brown spots? Perhaps not enough CalMag? Rest looks healthy.

What kind of deficiency? What should I do? By the way, they're autos.
What kind of deficiency do I have going on here? I gave a good dose of calmag last night. The first signs were the dark spots on the leaves. Been feeding ff bloom nutes every other day, 1/4 to 1/2 strength. started from the bottom. Leaves turn yellow and then dry up.

End of Cycle or something to be afraid
Hi everyone, I think the brown leaves just reflect the end of cycle (WG started flushing 4 days ago, DSD33 today). I don't see signs of mold or something rotting, brown leaves do not detach, both plants show already some amber trichomes. What do you think?

First time growing/Need help in late flower
Over the last 9 days my plant has gone from happy and healthy to sugar leaves pointing straight up near the top of plant and drying and curling up on the lower levels. Is this from too much light or did I over feed late in flower? First grow/ no diary. Can I save or do I chop?
