Yeah it kinda looks like TMV but also looks like natural leaf color mutation.. I’d just let it go and see how things turn out

Luckily it looks like your leaves just have an unusual color pattern, aka variegation. It’s a pretty common mutation and shouldn’t effect your plants health 🌱

Yellowing leavesLeaves seem kinda yellow on one hand. The bottom right hand corner one looks like she needs CalMag but I'm not sure.
All the photos have been taken under the same light.
Used to over dose the nutrients to prevent burn but continually gave them 1mL/L calmag each.Week 8

Help me get her better.Really need some advice on plant 3. She is now showing a lot of yellowing on bottom leaves. But now starting to move up to the top leaves. Can anyone help me get her better? Don’t like seeing her like this. I thought it was lockout at first but looks more like an N deficiency.5y ago

Yellow spot on my leaf. :) PH fluctuation ?(Water change) I had set to 5.5 PH and waited 20 minutes. I put in my fertilizers, everything was fine. The next morning the ph had dropped to 4.7.. So I put it back up. The next morning yellow spots appeared on the leaves. Did you confirm that is due to ph fluctuation ? Thank'sWeek 3
