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

Ongoing brown and yellow patches forming in week 6 of flower I've also noticed today a couple leaves looked wet, so tried to wipe it off but that did nothing. I took 2 pictures of the same leaf at slightly different angles to see the shine. It's only the skunk effected (closed similar question prematurely in skunks diary)

Is this a disease caused by a lack of calcium and magnesium?I pruned these problematic leaves during the flowering period, wondering whether this would lead to a decrease in yield. Calcium and magnesium were added every time I applied fertilizer. What caused the disease? Overnutrition burn?

Deficiency?? Excess? Neither?Grown this strain before and had the same issue.. not sure if its a CalMag deficiency entirely. pH has remained at 6.0-6.5 or so in soil and didnt show signs until recently, seemed to have worsened after just two days of only CalMag and Ro water so I bumped up the bloom nutes.
