Red-tinged yellow spots on one fan leaf

This week's pics incl close-up of yellow spots visible on both sides of this one leaf. Soil mix includes diatomaceous earth (I top off each week) + 1/4 mosquito dunk crumbled into bits worked into topsoil. Are spots a sign of fungus? Insect? Too much rain? Something else? Ty!

Continually adding Diamataceous Earth will cause your substrate to become highly alkaline, not sure why you would be using it every week. Yellow spots look like burning from feeding too much or too often or both maybe?

Looks like residue from spraying and thirp damage. Best of luck on the grow.

have mites been fully ruled out of the equation for the small white dots? The mosquito dunks should be killing the trip larva in the soil and skip using DE, it does jack shit when its wet. The white residue on plants maybe DE leftovers that got a bit wet? Need more info. Good Luck!

tho' i m not sure about thrips, their damage are usually more irregular and less circular, so small white dot could be early sign of calcium deficiency as well.

Since this is a duplicate question, just delete it! I would definitely trust m0use's answer to your other question on this topic... which is why FreeCain has said what he said... he seems to like taking other people's answers as his own... check out his diaries (there aren't any)...

This must be the answer you are looking for. There is a few issue it seem: -white powdery mildew that you could treat spraying 4 part milk 6 part water (white stuff everywhere) - thrips that you could treat efficiently with SPINOSAD (small white dot) - calcium deficency (medium yellow dot on leaf tips)

I've answered your previous question but will duck back in here to tell you I would be MORE concerned right now about the larger white spots you've got going on because this is powdery mildew and a killer of harvests... The yellow spots you've identified could definitely be septoria which is another fungus and would be treated with the same fungicide I mentioned in your other question - the GrowSafe... I was also scrolling through your other questions to see what other issues you had encountered and wish you had chosen an answer to each one so we could get some idea of the progression of your grow... I know many people come to this page to see if someone else has a problem they have and then look to see what was chosen as an answer ... it helps everyone! Let us know what you decide here! Good luck!
