Brown/shiny bronze spots..

Hi everyone. In the past few days I noticed increasing number of these spots on my plant, actually plants, nearly all have it now. It's around the bottom leaves, the top ones are fine (well I don't have that many, they're young lol). Also, they kinda suffer with curling up nearly since born — which I don't understand, since my temps are in check.


Sum up:
  • From seeds
  • Plants — 2 weeks old
  • Grow medium — 1/3 potting compost, 1/3 Pelite, 1/3 Vermiculite
  • No feed has been used
  • I watch my tap water pH and bring it down, from it's normal 7.3-7.6 to 6.4 or 6.5 using previously lemon juice, now apple cider vinegar. I always leave the water sit well over 24 hours
  • Check my water's ppms and its not too much, around 200 ppm
  • I have a fan blowing at the plants
  • Light 600W MH, distance 2 ft today, up till now had it nearly 3 ft.
  • Started misting them 2 days ago when the lights go off to moisten the leaves, not much improvement, if anything at all

Issues:

  • Possible Heat Stress :o
  • Brown Spots

Thanks every one.

Are you still using the lemon juice or apple cider vinegar?It could also be mildew.
I use the acid only for water going in the soil. I used regular tap water for misting, so that means that I was misting with water with pH something over 7.
