Black spots on leaves
Trickotreat47
started grow question 2y ago
So I have those black spots on leaves on top of the canopy of my plants. Can someone please explain what are those and how can I treat it? Also the edges of the leaves on top of the canopy are brown and crispy.

The burnt tips are a nutrition/pH issue. The black blotches could be a fungal problem due to poor air exchange/high humidity.

Cotyledon issue from seedling
Have seedlings from Auto Colorado Cookies (Dutch Passion). One already has cotyledons, but not opened yet. I see some yellow and bigger brown spot of the tip. In the beginning I had 250 PPFD, could this be the issue? Now I am around 100 PPFD and put the light a bit up. See photo.

Leaves browning in multiple spots Lower leaves yellowing but have green veins.
One plants leaves are browning in multiple locations. I attempted to diagnose the problem with runoff tests. pH was 6.5 and TDS was around 900ppm, which was expected since they received nutes that day. Despite not spreading to other nearby plants, could it be leaf septoria?

Brownish Spots on 2 Older Leafs. Young plant.
I searched it up before posting this and what I found is: Leaf spot, canker, and fungus: Brown leaf spot, Yellow leaf spot, Cladosporium stem canker and Chaetomium fungus. Solutions I found in the comments below. What do you guys think? Can it be heat (a lot of hot days here)?

Deficiency issue/problem with leaves
Any idea what problem I’m having with my plant/leaves? I’m guessing some type of deficiency because I’ve only fed once and it was a few weeks ago. (Check photos in most recent week). Any advice/ tips would be awesome, thanks!

Dots began to appear on the leaves and the tips began to curl upward, I water them with fertilizers every day, the output is always 100 ppm less than the input, what could it be?

Brown spots new leaves - flowering
Brown spots on the canopy and leaves are less greener. I suspect it is Calcium deficiency caused by a acid Ph (my Ph meter was not calibrated). I have flushed it and fed it normally 5 days after the first signals. Is it really Calcium def or another thing I'm missing?
