other than those spots how do you guys think im doing?
Your room looks great, I see that little cactus is chillin. I'm just throwin out some suggestions to look into so, possibly calcium deficiancy or PH spotting? The spots look too severe to be caused by insects, but I could be wrong? If you made a drastic switch from veg to flower nutes it may have thrown your PH off, thats my best guess! I'm no pro just givin ya somethin to look into. Goodluck!

do you mist the plants with your light on?
The spotting actually started right before I switch to flowering nuts. I watered the with just plain filtered water for three days before I started to flower so the calcium deficiancy sounds like it could be the problem. There are on 1/2 strength nuts till the end of the week so we'll see if the spots clear up. Thanks for the suggestions this is my first grow so wasn't Sure wat could of caused it happy smoking
ya could be, wait it out and if it keeps gettin worse check your PH and/or looks for insects. growman09 had a good suggestion too!

Since you're growing in soil, chances are you have at least a few of those pain in the ass thrips......little gnat things. They don't really do much harm, other than the spots you have could be from their feces on the leaves acting just as if you had misted them.
I have had the very same problem, and the more I was able to control the thrips, the less spotting I saw. COPIOUS amounts of air flow at the plant base/top of soil is a good first step, as they just can't fly in and out of the soil with the constant breeze. Also placing the sticky fly/gnat traps throughout the grow, at upper AND lower levels will help even more.
If you have a small to average size grow, these measures alone should keep them under control enough to avoid using any type pesticide, or other topical treatment you may otherwise consider.....(just my $.02......but ask around and get some more input, I think you'll find they aren't as big a problem as they look.) They do look allot like spider mite spots, so be sure that's not what they are!!
Growman09 I stopped misting them when I started flowering, stonedloner I will try the sticky traps, and I will check the ph of the soil and water I've been using tonight when the lights kick on, thanks for the suggestions guys happy smoking
