Orange spots developing on leaves. Starting at bottom and moving up. Thought was calmag deficiency. Added twice over last week and still spreading. Do I need to just wait longer? Add more? Or another issue?

Yah man you got it. Copper spotting is Cal and probably has a Mag deficiency right behind it (hand in hand I've come to learn). What you've done is what I would have done and I would continue to feed her the Cal/Mag. The symptoms may not get better on the leaves already affected but wait a little longer and all new growth should be healthy from here on. Only other thing I see that might be an issue is heat stress. They look a little droopy (not just from the foliar spray) and if you're able to drop the temp by 2 degrees or so, this may perk her up (even though this isn't a reason behind the copper spotting). Just 2 cents👍 Good luck in the coming days and I hope everything goes well. Drop me a line in PM if you need. Peace and happy trails👍😊

Looks to me like a nutrient lockout and/or overdose. I see you're growing in soil. You may be giving too many nutrients for such a small plant, make sure in between feeds you're giving plain water too. 🌱😁👍

it doesn't look to be lacking on nutrients so I don't think it is a deficiency.Anything other than this is genetical.But,I would stop foliar spraying as I think you seem to be doing it.My guess is it caused those surface damages.

Hi DenzelFreegreen Sadly you have it is a magnesium deficiency. Those few steps below should keep you out off trouble. How to Fix Magnesium Deficiency The best ways to fix magnesium deficiency with marijuana is: 1-Flush your plants first to remove old nutrients and old salt build up! 2-Correct the PH level in water/ nutrients. The optimal ranges should be in the following markers: Soil, 6.0 – 6.5 pH range. Hydro or coco coir, 5.5 – 6.2 pH range 3-Start supplementing with Cal Mag 1ml per litre minimum. 4-Epsom salts can provide extra magnesium when needed, just add 1/4 to 1 teaspoon per gallon or 4 liters of water or with your nutrient feeding. 5-Dolomite lime, can be used but it must be added to the soil either on top of the soil or mixed in the soil. It’s usually easier to just use a Cal-Mag supplement. 6-Magnesium sulfate is like Epsom salts but with added sulfur. 7-Garden lime can adjust your soil’s ph levels, and a little goes a long way! 8-Worm castings are an excellent organic choice are recommended to be mixed with soil for full benefits. Hope this helps. And good luck with your growth.

Hey man, every sing Auto I have grown just loves 'cal-mag', it's like they can't get enough for something haha. Based on what you are showing looks like 'cal-mag' but also, seems a bit early on in the life of the plant, to show those kinds of symptoms, based on what I've seen with mine. I would stick to 10ml 'cal-mag' or so per gallon of water moving forward, since like I said before, Auto's just love this stuff! For the spots though, I would verify the PH going into the soil isn't too high or low, and honestly if that looks good, I would just ride it out till you started to see the spots worsen.... fingers crossed they don't! Is this the first time growing this strain/pheno? Happy Growing! 👊
