What is causing this? Bugs or Nutes (my guess is nutes) +rep

So my buddy who works at the local hydro shop back home (there isn't one around where i live) said just by looking at the pictures that it could be the early sign of thrips or a nutrient deficiency (thats what i'm guessing maybe cal or potassium).

If you need to get the info for what my grow medium is I have everything posted up in my journal.

But here are the issue spots. Not to bad yet just a few leaves affected but can see some newer growth being affected (where i draw the nutrient problem conclusion from)

I've looked everywhere for bugs. Can't find any. It's in a pretty sterile room and i try to clean it a couple times a day and just keep the area outside the tent Tidy.

Unless it is systemic or all over the plant, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Yes, some sort of nute issue is probably to blame, but I have a few leaves here and there all the time that have anomalies like this. They never seem to cause any issues or long-term damage. I hope this helps.

Nope definitely not a wide spread panic issue was just making me worry. It is about the time from when i put them into the FFOF that the nutes have been used up (been feeding with a diluted solution every other watering) so im gonna guess that the nute lvls in my soil are a tad low. Will be feeding them tonight.

PS. if you grew those nugs (if i can even call them that) in your avatar.... holy cow.....

Thanks, Yes they were mine. :) They were Sensi Seed Bank's "Big Bud". They definitely lived up to their reputation. They were huge, but not as stoney as we had wanted. thanks again for the compliment.

Not insect related. Trust me on this.
The issue is a small one at that. Yes?
