Water on leaves. In one picture leaves are soaked. Light is magnified by water drops and then cools leaves in spots it sits.

It could be from nutrients touching the leaves when fed.

Look like nutrients have spilled on your leaves, causing a burn.

Brown patches on leaves
Noticed these marks on the leaves of the plant I've had problems with. Any ideas what they could be? The other two are smelly amazing and the single plant is so sticky! I think it might be the cheesecake but I'm really not sure, I won't make the mistake of mixing them up again

What's causing my brown crispy leaves!?
Over the past week my plants have taken a turn for the worse. Many leaves went from yellowing to browning to completely crispy! Other leaves have brown spots on them and some of the stems are purple.

Browning leaves?
What's up with these fan leaves? I'm starting to notice some light brown hues in a couple, mostly closer to the bottom of the plant. Anything to worry about?

Fertilizer burn or something else?
Hey fam. Plant seemed fine a few days ago besides a mag deficiency. Decided to foliar spray cal mag at half strength a few times. Now there are brown patches and leaves/stems are curling down like they’ve been overwatered. Too much cal mag? Burn? Something else? Thanks!

Brown dying leaves
What is going on with my leaves? Even the sugar leaves are starting to die. Sprayed with optic foliar switch to prevent male flowers popping up a few weeks ago so could be that.

Moin, bei meiner Größen Pflanze fangen die Blätter an von außen gelb zu werden und braune Punkte zu bekommen. Ist das ein Zeichen von einer überdüngerung? Alle anderen Pflanzen haben dies nicht. Oder zu wenig?

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?

Calcium deficiency
I already had a question a week ago, now it's easier to see, camera still bad. But here are some fan leaves which I believe are showing a calcium deficiency. Calmag is in the post, just waiting for it. Is it for sure a calcium deficiency only? Thoughts?

Crispy brown leaves
northern light is showing yellow and brown leaves at the top and the bottom of the plant. These leaves are thin and crispy like if they are about to fall off. I am watering it 2 to 3 times per week and started adding a bit of cal mag last week when they started showing brown dots

Possibly Potassium Deficient? Based on ALL the pics I could find, but not sure.
I noticed these brown splotches and leaf edges on one area bud and pistils of my Orange Sherbet last night. Based on what I can find online, this might be potassium deficiency? This is mostly on one spot near darkest edge when tent closed. Thanks!

Why are the leaves tips curling dying and brown marks appearing?
My Mac #1 showing brown spots/marks on leaves, with tips curling and dying yellow/brown - what is the problem? How do I fix this? She is in week 5 flower. Is it calcium deficiency? pH problem?

Brown spots new leaves - flowering
Brown spots on the canopy and leaves are less greener. I suspect it is Calcium deficiency caused by a acid Ph (my Ph meter was not calibrated). I have flushed it and fed it normally 5 days after the first signals. Is it really Calcium def or another thing I'm missing?

Pest attack. What can I use to eradicate?
3 weeks of flowering, and the pests are still here. Can I play Beauveria Bassiana? Or just neem oil? - The temperatures were very high here, exceeding 30°C, this week it will decrease. - I have other plants to harvest and I'm going to take advantage and clean the grow. Help 😥
