I had the same problem last grow... Mine appered after I overwathered, and by the looks of your soil I think its your problem too...

Personally, I'd just pop them off and see how the rest of the plant does. You don't need them anyway. Check your water and soil pH.

Leaf spots!
Leaf septoria or nute deficiency? Don't have ability to monitor pH or ppm. Do I cut the affected leaves off or any other home brew solution? 3 different plants in the photos.

I have this symptom, a pattern of rust spots happening on new leaves, I have checked medium PH, which is around 7.5. I think it is Boron Deficiency caused by The medium PH not being approximately 6.5. I need more suggestions, What do you guys think?

Welcher Mangel ist das?
Seit etwa 10 Tagen zeichnet sich ab, dass meine Blätter braune Flecken bekommen. Diese werden leider immer mehr und größer. Kann ich jetzt noch aktiv gegensteuern? Des Weiteren erkenne ich kleine weiße Punkte auf der blattoberfläche. Sind das Salze?

Unknown rust on 7th flowering week
This started as what I thought was a cal/mag deficiency, bought some, gave it for a week at a good dose and 6.3ph, and this intensified and switched from just lower leaves to the upper and a few sugar leaves on one plant. Any ideas? May calmag takes awhile? Or wrong diagnosis?

Brown Edges on Leaf. Bit of yellow and purple.
What could be causing this? And how do I fix it with GH flora series. It is only showing up on one bud site. But I believe its getting worse. I also noticed other leaves all of the jagged edges are slightly curled up

How's the quality?
How would you rate the quality of these plants? The dark brown leaves have me self conscious of the roots situation. DIY supersoil mix recipe here: https://pastebin.com/pbxMZysq I've added more dolomite & guano as topdressing and fed liquid calmag and potassium during flowering.

VPD related leaf issue? Brown spots, don't think its Cal related. Pls, any help would be appreicated.
Brown spots on leaves, I thought it was Cal related, and tried different doses, with no success. Could it be VPD related? It can and does get very hot and very humid in the 1.5ftx2.5ft closet. Even when running no humidifier (Live in AZ). I've been struggling with this for months

Do I have to worry?
Only on one leaf of one plant. Is this some fungus or virus? It looks a bit like coffee rust, but I couldn't find anything else like it. How should I proceed? Thanks in advance!
