First of all - I really appreciate any response/feedback here. I'm new to this so I'll take any help I can get.

I am growing a fem Purple Kush from Crop King Seeds and experiencing problems on lowest true leaves. They are rusting up, getting super crispy, and dying. The problem began while in a solo cup, and I have since transplanted into 5 gal smart pot. Since the transplant, the plant's growth has gotten faster, but I am noticing some new rust spots(picture #3) on the leaves one node up from the bottom.

I am growing in FFOF with added perlite & dolomite lime. No nutes given, only tap water. I have a 600w HPS, growing in this tent(<---click). Temps running 73-80f with 40-50% RH.

I know this thread is old, but is reply just so others will know what to do. Crop king seeds version of purple kush is VERY SENSITIVE to nutrients when in seedling stage. I'm guessing that you didn't start them off in a neutral, low nutrient starter mix. The soil you used still has nutrients in it and is too hot for the young seedlings. They need a couple weeks to get established.

Salt burn, usually caused by allowing the cup to dry too much too often causing salt build up and nute/salt burn, also when you water you should always drench the medium until runoff and let the plant draw the runoff back into the pot from the saucer. Cant fix it now just make sure to water properly, healthy/vigorous plants love water.
