Problem with yellow spots, please help keep my baby alive

Yellow spots started on the lower leaves, today the spots have gotten bigger, more of them, and now on the middle leaves as well. The picture is from yesterday, it's gotten worse since then.

The strain is Kandy Kush FAST from Royal Queen Seeds

On another site, root bound was the first (and only) suggestion, replanted this morning but as mentioned above its still getting worse.

The water I use is spring water and it's been pH corrected already with pH Up and Down to 6.6.

ProMix soil and perlite to begin with. The pot it was transferred to has ProMix soil, Perlite, Black Gold compost, and Earth Worm Castings.

This is my 5th attempt (2nd actual plant) and I've already wasted months of my time so Im getting a little desperate to get this right especially since Im almost out of seeds

How old is that plant? Cup only looks half full with soil too.

Mine seem fine in full solos for about 3 weeks or so.

Believe it or not mine is actually 5 weeks old. I call bs on the "FAST version"

Calcium or its from low ph watering. Transplant and check your waters ph as well as soil if you see this again
I bought some Spring water and used pH Up and Down to get it to 6.6. Tested the water after running through the soil and it only changed to 6.7

Why havent you moved this to a bigger container? Its root bound. Thats your problem.

I dont like my leaves touching the soil either.

That plant can't be 5 weeks old mate. At 5 weeks it would be at least over a foot tall and a foot wide. If that's an autoflower then dump it because there is no point in transplanting it now. You should give more details like how much light you're using so this doesnt happen again.

No reason for dumping it if you've waited 5 weeks...it needs a bigger pot man...transplant it fast...you said you transplanted already...im hoping that that pic is the before and not after transplant...and your not going to notice the difference in one day bro...already stressed from being rootbound And possible transplant shock...it might look worse before it looks better..but dont give up on it...good luck

You just dont know what your talking about mate. Look at the post I quoted. If thats an auto theirs no use transplanting it now because it will flower soon and won't be getting much bigger. Its a fact mate. Sure he could keep growing and get 2 grams dry but I'd start over. If its not an auto then transplant as necessary.

As stated, it is already transplanted. The pic I showed was before the transplant.

You're right I was looking at with germination. Germ took 2 weeks and that plant is now a few days over 3 weeks. The light Im using is a 250w Mars Hydro LED panel and the lights are on 24/0 for now. And no it's not an Auto,

Also I was able to get my phone working (sort of) so here are some updated photos from 2 days. That's also when I started LST20160731_075941.jpg 20160730_115115.jpg

An update: the plant appears to be doing better. I ended up buying happy frog fruit and flower as well and top dressed the plant. The affected leaves look worse but isnt spreading anymore as far as I can tell so I'm hoping I corrected it in time to save the plant.
