Hello everyone! Some of my leaves have small gray spots on them, like the ones in the picture. What could be causing this?

Nothing to worry about, just a bit of abrasion damage where the leaf tips are touching the soil surface, most likely at night when the leaves are lowered and the fan is blowing on them.

RunWithIt
Popped up around last week (week 4, monday). Prior to week 4, i had been watering with tap water, which in my area is pretty hard.(7.8+ pH) Been correcting pH to 6.8 with each watering since. (2 waterings since then.) Should i just continue feeding 6.8 pH water or add cal-mag?

I keep loosing leaves to some sort of nasty necrosis. It affects leaves at all levels, small and big randomly. I had to remove a lot of dying foliage
At first it looks like a asymmetrical spot of leaf starting to thin out to lighter color then tissue dries and turn black. I have high runoff EC3.3 and I blame Easy boost pellets because I only add rootjuice 1ml/L and sugar royal 0.5ml/L to my water. What is it and how I fix it?

Dark tips
it seems to me that the tips of the leaves have a very dark color, it looks like an excess of nitrogen but in three weeks I have never fertilized and the only additions to my biobizz light mix are a sprinkling of guano kalong and 10% of worm humus biobizz.

My seedling doesn't look so good.
This is my first coco grow so could be possible that I made a mistake. The other three seedlings are super healthy but this one has this weird thing with it's leaves. Somebody seen this before? I gave them some root juice and fertilizer before transplanting with ph between 5,5-6.

Black discolouration on leaves
Okay so the problems with the black spots continue only on one plant. I tried reducing nitrogen and increased calmag to 4ml/g. I defoliated the affected leaves and sprayed with baking soda mix. 3 days later they're appearing again. If I don't get this fixed soon im gonna lose her

Nutrient Burn, Leaf Septoria, Nutrient Deficiency? Or something else?
I have been having issues with the Purple Haze. I've tried adjusting the Temperatures, adding additional Cal-Mag, changing lumen intensity etc. I believe this may be nutrient burn? Added an old image of leaf before mainlining, the plant is 1 week old after mainlining was done.
