Hey, these are signs of calmag deficiency, these brown spots are the main symptom. Add some calmag and you’ll be okay 😊

500 or 700 ppm ? 500 is a bit low, 700-750 ppm (NaCl 0.5 scale) should be fine

What is causing this Leaf discolouration overnight after a lot of tent work yesterday
Spent a lot of time in the tent yesterday. Everything was fine and this morning there’s bad discolouration on the leaves of some plants. I did lower the plant (was way too high) so may beight burn - but it’s only on some plants I did make two mixes of water/nutes

Possible manganese deficiency?
I fixed some previous issues and have not been feeding my plants. They are in peat and worm castings and pearlite. About 6.6ph soil, watering with 6.5-6.6 water. I am going to water with nutrients again to see if that helps just want to hear another opinion.

Cotyledon issue from seedling
Have seedlings from Auto Colorado Cookies (Dutch Passion). One already has cotyledons, but not opened yet. I see some yellow and bigger brown spot of the tip. In the beginning I had 250 PPFD, could this be the issue? Now I am around 100 PPFD and put the light a bit up. See photo.

Is this a deficiency or light burn
Hi all my other plants are perfectly fine except for this one it has brown edges on the leaves and has been growing the slowest out of all my plants and I was just wondering how I could fix this? I checked the run off PPM yesterday and it was 1100 so I flushed it and now its 700

What is this brown spot?
What is this brown spot? 18” from light. Just fed about 10 hours ago with dr.Earth 1-1-1 liquid solution watered in with 1/4 gallon of water. It is the only spot on whole plant. I know the temps are high. Wondering if it could be something else.
