Leaf spotting
GrowingGrannieanswered grow question 3 years ago
This looks to be the start of nitrogen toxicity ... autos don't like a whole bunch of nutes early in the game! I'm growing some now (autos are ALL I grow) that have reacted badly to ANY nutes even at 4 weeks and in flower! Each strain is going to be different and the best thing to do with them is to wait until they're about 3 weeks old to introduce nutes and then ONLY about 1/4 strength. If they tolerate that, you can up them to 1/2 strength the next week and go full strength in week 5... This one seems to be telling you they're not happy with the amount of N they're getting - but it's VERY minor and probably not worth a flush. You don't mention what kind of soil they're in but if the soil itself has any nutes in it, what I've said goes double!
All in all, this look great with just a hint that you're giving too much nitrogen ... if you back off on that, those leaves will NOT show any improvement but what you want to be looking at and checking are the new leaves ... THEY will show you if you've sorted the issue.
Good luck and enjoy the journey!

Burning from either feeding too much or from a soil mix that is too "hot".
You are feeding these small plant a lot of different things, baby plants need baby feeding!
Autoflowers can usually get by just fine with half strength nutrients too.
With soil growing, a schedule of plain water/plain water/feed/plain water/plain water/feed etc, so that they are only being fed every 12 days or so, which is plenty, as soil "holds onto" nutrients a lot more than other substrates.
Remember too, it is very eas to fix a slight under feeding, but very hard to rescue a burned, over fed plant.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Rust spots on leavesHey guys, please help me identify the cause of these rust spots on leaves. Seems to progress in last couple of days(spread).
Might this be a light/heat burn? Or some nute def?
I added CalMag on previous feeding.

Calcium deficiency?Hello everyone,
I need your help once again.
I have just spotted some brown/yellow dots on 2 leaves of my plant.
Did some research and looks like Calcium deficiency, but still wanted to ask you.
If that's a Ca deficiency, should I add CalMag next time I feed her?
Thank you ✊

Brown spotsHello everyone,
I have to ask the same question, since that problem is spreading although I give her CalMag.
9 days ago only 2 fan leaves had those brown spots, now almost all of them are affected, especially higher ones.
I wanted to feed her once again and then start flushing

Leaf issuesThoughts on the cause of this? Planted in ground. Rainwater only. Compost has been the main nutrients.A small amount of 0-30-50 booster powder has been used. Other plants are not as bad and the middle plant has no issues. All approx 2 weeks into flower.

Almost two weeks old, got her first spot on a leafWhat do you guys think is the cause of this? She is only 13 days old. Is it a light burn? She's getting 16-20 DLI until she develops more leaves. Wind? I'm not giving any nuts yet. Even her last water was like a week ago because her soil still feels a bit moist. VPD Early Veg.😽
