They are about a week or two from going into flower. I just did some pruning the other day, but I'm not seeing this on any forums as a side effect. Any ideas for me? 20210211_105632.jpg20210211_105744.jpg20210211_105642.jpg20210211_105623.jpg

Hey man do yourself a favor and take pictures with plants in natural light . Can’t see anything with blurple on , will make it hard for everyone to help you . You should also list some specs about your grow so people can better assist you . For starters your light height and or temp , because them top leaves don’t look happy .

Hey man, thanks for the light height mention! I completely forgot to raise it the other day, good call! Using 2000 w lights, aside from the last couple days, the light is between 12-16 inches away. Temp is 68-70 on low end and 78-80 on high end. Usually keep humidifier going to keep around 60-65%humidity. I turn it off when they go to sleep. I have constant airflow 24/7. Purple haze on left, gorilla glue on right. I did literally just prune for the first time ever 2 days ago as well. I use ph balanced, purified water for watering. I slowly water each plant about 2 qts of water every 2-3 days depending on how the soil feels to me. I don't have early stage nutrients, using foxfarm ocean forest soil. I'll get natural light pics when they're due to wake up in a few hours. Is there something else I should include or inform you guys of for better assistance? Thank you all so much for helping this first timer

No need for early stage nutes. Fox Farms Ocean Forest is pretty hot and should keep the plants fed thru veg. Last time I tried to feed plants in Ocean Forest they got cooked! Your lights look to be a little too close. Those top leaves are taco'd and thats usually from light burn. Raise them up to around 24"/ Those brown spots could be the early signs of a calcium deficiency. If you are using purified water then its unlikely your plants are getting enough. Some people get calcium from their tap water but depending on your water source you may not have any. Its always a good idea to add calmag to your grow, even early on when the plants are feeding off the soil nutes.
