Light yellow/white spots. Missing leaf matter.

I dont know what is wrong, its happening on my 4 week old white widow. Its in mg organic, with 30% perlite. i honestly think i have been over nuteing them so i am backing off with the nutes to just water and maybe 1/3 dose every other watering. But i am lost with this new problem with the spots. They show up as white/yellowish spots and in the center of the spots, or the edges of my leaves just end up disappearing as they come out to the canopy, its just mostly the top newer growth thats doing it. I moved my light further away, mainly because my plants are 4 weeks and arent very tall, they are as wide as they are tall. I do not have any pics of the plants or the problems at the current time simply because i dont have batteries for my cam. if anyone can give me a guess without pics then i would greatly appreciate that +++..

Look really closely, see any webs or tiny things crawling around? If so, then you have spider mites. I had spots showing up on my leaves and thought it was just a nutrient problem until I took a picture and blew it up really big on my computer, then saw the nasty critters. Good luck.

im going to be honest they really do not look like that. the spots are larger than those in the pics. and they are not so scattered. i say out of the last 4 leaves that have come out with them there is maybe 3 larger yellow white spots and 1 hole and 1 spot where the leaf matter is gone to the vein on a new smaller leaf.

i've sprayed them with some organocide anyway's just incase

Always better to be safe rather than sorry, eh? Hope you can figure it out. Try and get a pic up when you get some batteries.

Sounds like Spider Mites to me too.I use Sevin Dust.You can get it at any department store.Way Cheaper than Neem oil.
