I be had quite a few leaves that look like this , I’ve taken them off the plant because I’m not sure what it is. Do you all know? I just want to make sure I’m not experiencing pests or mold.

Hmm honestly good on you to notice that and I think it is a problem not to be overlooked like another person responded. One of the telltale signs of a problem is the red stems. It also kind of looks like light burn. I checked your pictures your lights distance looks fine. The thing about UV lights is people move them close because they run cool but they can still burn plants kind of like how a snowboarder can still get sun burn in the cold. I think you are okay for lights but this is a possibility. The other thing I was thinking was nitrogen toxicity/deficiency but there are some signs on your pics that this is not the case. There isn't enough yellowing for deficiency and it isn't dark enough or are the leaves curled down for toxicity. These are still small things to look at but probably not the root cause. By the looks of it, you have the beginning of a phosphorus deficiency. The images you have shown do match what a phosphorus deficiency looks like. A cannabis phosphorus deficiency generally appears on leaves from the lower/older parts of the plant. The lower leaves may turn dark green or yellow (similar to nitrogen toxicity/deficiency which is why I mentioned it earlier), and start getting spots or big splotches that look brown, bronze or even a little blue. The leaves may thicken and curl, and the affected leaves feel stiff. Sometimes the stems of the plant turn bright red or purple, but not always. Sometimes accompanied by a calcium deficiency, as phosphorus and calcium interact with each other in the plant Do not mistake natural reddish-purple colored stems for a phosphorous deficiency!

Magnesium deficiency. Make sure the PH is correct in case its from a lockout. If PH is correct then add CalMag.

Well I would start at ph run off. Might be as simple as your ph is out of range. With any signs that is first thing to check. If your growing in coco or a coco mix, it is likely calmag needed if ph is in range. Good luck and happy growing

It should be lack of calcium and magnesium? Maintaining air circulation will greatly reduce the possibility of mold.

Hi, I have a couple of leave like that myself and TBH I'm not too bothered. It could be where water has got on them or its natural die off of leaves. Either way I wouldn't worry too much about it unless it spreads. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing
