i have looked at all the cures and commons for small yellow "freckles" or small dots appearing on my leaves and I can see nothing about it anywhere, closest I saw suggested an Mn deficiency... which ive never heard of, just wondering if anyone has some ideas?

You will find people more willing to help you if you provide more details.

Example
Details on the clones and their environment
- age of clones
- Temperature and Humidity of storage area
- Light type and distance from clones
- Grow media (soil with nutes, soil with out nutes, soil less)
- noticeable root growth?
- Watering cycle
- nutrients given to clones (type, amount, frequency)
Oh and that saying "a picture speaks a thousand words" is still as true today as ever.

alright, well no camera and im sorry i was in a hurry when i made the post, im glad you took the time to respond, im growin in a closet, i made a reflective box of plywood and mylar around my plant that is 4w 4t 2d and i have a 250w hps vegging my clones (i am getting a couple more soon) about 24'' up... but i raised it to about 32" earlier tonight for 18 hours a day temps get to 85-90 with one fan, got a new one and im adding a computer fan to exhaust out of the plywood box, with 2 fans i think temp was 80-85, havent installed pc fan exhaust yet tho... im growing in soil fox farms, and my clone came prerooted in a rooting cube, i put it in soil about 3 weeks ago and have LSTd it down, it has 3 nice branches or chutes that are growing just about evenly and is very bushy 2-3 leaves in the middle-bottom are yellowish tint, the rest are a nice green but some are almost "spackled" with a fine yellowy whiteness (not sure might be a gene trait of the strain) i havent used any nutes yet and i plan on flowering in about a week.. and i water whenever the soil looks to be dry i check for moisture with my finger

thank you for any help.

i have a feeling you may have some gnats in your room, they feed on the leaves and leave small brown/yellow dots over some of the leaves

knats eat youre weed, damn i was wondering why on one of my plants a couple of the leaves have brown spots all over it, and have knats bad, dont really know the best way to get rid of them, and i dont want to add sand to be top soil, any other methods to get rid of them.

yes, add foil over the top of all the tops of pots, stops the gnats laying more eggs on top of the wet soil, let soil dry alot before next water, also i bought these sticky fly catchers that you hang up i got like 10 off ebay for like 2 pounds, act quick because all the babies feed on your roots b4 they can fly

mosquito dunks you can pick them up at home depot, add them to your water, they have a bacteria which will kill the eggs. you can kill the flying gnats with a pyrethium bomb or spray

you could have spidermites too

well i can only talk for the sticky fly catches foil,

1. fly catches are excellent, but only good if all the knats land on them which they dont, there is always a few that dont, it only takes one knat to re populate your whole room which doesn't take long at all.

2. sand its ok, the thicker the amount of sand you put on top the better. only problem is when you water it can revel the soil which makes it useless.

3. foil is the other option if you dont like the sand idea. if you make sure there is no holes for knats to get throw ect, also good coz it reflects a little bit of light up at your plant

The foil idea is a good technique if u can just get it right which shouldnt be hard at all

Think I might go look for some sprayers. Any brand in particular or type? Even if it kills more then just knats?
