Getting a few lighter patches on some of the leaves (in the last 2 shots) and not sure what is causing that... possibly the cold? Any help would be much appreciated!

I have a humidity problem. It's usually between 75 and 70. I want to buy moisture resistant seeds from the region I live in and I am thinking about what I should not do to overcome this problem. I started the new 2nd wind blower, hopefully it will be enough.This is my first prod

Brown dying leaves
What is going on with my leaves? Even the sugar leaves are starting to die. Sprayed with optic foliar switch to prevent male flowers popping up a few weeks ago so could be that.

Why are the leaves tips curling dying and brown marks appearing?
My Mac #1 showing brown spots/marks on leaves, with tips curling and dying yellow/brown - what is the problem? How do I fix this? She is in week 5 flower. Is it calcium deficiency? pH problem?

Spotting issue consistent in all my grows. Have always thought Cal deficient but more Cal never fixes the issue. PH always checked with 2 PH pens 6.2-6.8.
Always pops up around the same time in flower.. week 4/5. Brown irregular spots and occasional curling down on the fan leaves. The only things I have consistently used in all the grows is the LED light, RO water, and CALiMAGic. Switched to dry organics but now its back. N toxic?

Day 67: after watering, I am noticing the leaves curling under, but fine next morning - or at least less clawing. Does this look like over watering? Watering every other day 1/gal per 7gal fabric pot with 2/3 soil, 1/3 perlite well mixed. If not, what might cause the claws?

What kind of deficiency is this or is it light burn? Can provide more pictures since they are in a sleep period now. It’s this plant, strawberry banana one and the purple queen.

Seedlings - Over-watering?
Hello all, I just started my first grow. I was thinking I may have exposed the seedlings to excess humidity (90% in cloning chamber)causing the cotyledon to curl down on one side. Wanted to get some feedback if my assumption is correct as the soil looks and feels quite dry.

I’m seeing brown on the lower leaves. They also appear particularly shiny like a magnolia leaf. Is this too much iron or magnesium?

Hello. When I watered 3 days ago, I saw some brown spots on the lower leaves and thought I had got some nutrient solution on the leaves but now it's on the next set too. Any idea what is going on? All 3 plants are being treated the same. Thanks Chuck.
