To me it also looks like you've splashed nutes on the leaves therefor burning them to a crisp

I been giving em 8ml basically since the beginning but the problem just started a couple days ago there like brown dead spots and they just appear anywhere on the leaf doesn't nute burn start on the edges?I could only come up with it meting possibly a magnesium deficiency?

like if you mean my unmixed nutes then that's not possible cause I mix in a different room but if you mean from the water then yeah but I never seen it burn leaves from the water

just flush very well with phed water 6.5ph 5.5 is way to low you need to raise it up that will cause lots of problems. and slow down on the feeding, it could be salt build up kinda early for that or nute burn and like the guys said above it does look like you splashed nutes on the leaves. less is more, plants like schedules and get use to them, a steady supply of nutes is better then a sudden burst.

Sorry thats wrong, he says the ph is 5.5 to 6 (5.8 for hydro). The problem is under feeding causing multiple def, how much does it say to give a vegging plant? whatever it says do it, dont pussyfoot around with 1/4 doses, you only starve the plant. Follow the directions on the label. Its mainly N def.

Wow. According to above post it could be anything. You are in coco, so your ph is fine.not salt buildup, too early.There is definitely a problem though. Leaves are lookin droopy and stems purpling. Looks like overwatering, how is the drainage on your cup, maybe time for a repot. Good place to start at least.
 
they seem to be draining good i water until i get like 1/4 of what i put in as run off so i also think salt is out of the question and i only use nutes every other time but there perky as of right now so idk about the ever watering thing but i can try transplanting but im really leaning toward a deficiency cause i watered with 8ml of A&B and 5ml cal/mag and it has seemed to slow up on how fast it spreads
 
Mabe too much water. Normally best thing to do Is after you get your rooted clone you put it in bucket with moist soil. When that gets dry you give it a good feed only with vitamax and don't ph water. Once that gets dry you give your first feed with nuts. And ph water to 5.8 to 6.2 but 6.2 is the best. Just make sure your soil doesn't get to dry and damage your roots. This information I'm giving can help give you results up and over 2lbs a light.

Is this a cutting from a mother? Are the problems on the old cutting leaves? Is there problems on the new growth?

If you answered yes yes no = wouldnt worry about it
 
update: ok i noticed i have a few fungus gnats flying around not to many could this be it? im shooting in the dark at this point seems the leaves are only turning yellow and falling off eventually with slight spotting like a manganese deficiency? how can i tell if the fungus gnats are doing damage? what does it look like? also i went to 10ml a+b and 5 ml cal/mag no burns at 8ml so idk trying that i dont get it some of my plants are perfectly fine? and didnt loose a single leaf. fucking driving myself insane.
