If it doesnt appear to be speading, or the begining of an insect issue, and is 5 leaves; pluck em, roll one, pour a glass of wine n call it a day... but i agree better pics, as in lighting.

when you see shit like that, its a rootzone issue, mainly rootzone PH is frucked, Flush with plain PHd water, test the run off i gaurentee that runoff water will be sky high, salt build up in the rootzone, anyway, a flush would be required, aside from that those leaves look nourished trying to judge by that dark color of them....so yea my best educated guess is PH, not your nute mix PH, your roots bro! everyone is going to try nd pinpoint exactly wht nutrient is defficient. after the flush, back off the nutes maybe by half at the first feeding after flush, i cant emphasize enough on testing the runoff , also you will start to learn how to read your plants regrding nutes, good luck and enjoy!

Wise stuff here...

You know backing off the nute gas pedal is not discussed enough... if you are feeding every feed and anywhere close to the company schedule morris could be totally wrong (hes prob not) and that flush will be best thing u cud do, and run em far far lower than nute company recomends... i get far less nute issues now im a light feeder and girls happy as cud be imo...

your so right, overfeeding causes so many more issues than just the obvious, we dont know we dont know the history of his plant, so all we can do is advise he flush it out, flushing will get u a clean slate and help clear out the PH, every brand i tried, i never had to use more than 50% of the label dose, i go by PPM, and some successful growers i know would rock it to 2000ppms, i would be sitting at 1100ppm with the healthiest, problem free plants ever

Yea never over 50%... i liken it to vitamins, sure a "one a day" may be good for me but im not gunna be any healthier taking 10 a day and maybe less...

Ive become every hydro stores worst customer... i use jacks hydro, make my own containers, reuse my coco...and i went to Snake Oil Users Anonymous and quit buying any of it... my plants have never been more lush... i used to get purple stems and tried every cure in the book to no avail though it didnt seem to hurt anything... i gave all the fancy stuff up n feed light and they are as green as green can be... lol.. less sometimes is more

with growing, less is more, people dont realize, ganja plants have gotten along just fine without human intervention, look at you, the hydro store guy prolly had you buying all kinds of shit because you had purple stems, which is totally natural and u were probably freaking out right? lol noobs we were

Absolutly... the problem is too many seasoned folks stay in the noob zone when it comes to snake oil...

Just curious,..how do you water your plants,..feed feed water, feed water feed, feed feed feed etc? I’m asking bc you seem like you know your stuff, not questioning your methods ha. Thanks

Well came in to this tonight. Seems to be only on one plant so far and maybe 5 or so leaves effected. Any ideas?
It’s seems like I have this problem pop up whenever I start using calmag products and/or ro water. I grow in coco and the “problem” did not occur till about 6 weeks from cuttings. My tap is about 150 ppm but it seems the strain that I’m growing [mango puff), does not use much calmag and when I supplement it with calmag, it appears that I’m calmag deficient ha. When I grew gmo (garlic cookies) strain, it needed a lot of calmag. It could be a ph issue but I bet it has something to do with mag or calcium uptake. I don’t think it’s a ph issue bc I monitor my ph and ppm with bluelab so and am fairly confident that ph is in range. Like many suggested. I flushed my plants yesterday with a low dose nutrient solution (500 ppm). Growing in coco makes solving these issues, extremely fast. But I agree with others, when in doubt, just flush the medium well. I screwed up pretty bad a few times through veg during my first soilless grow (was seeing a lot of stress, red veins, yellow growth etc). Oddly ppl on here told me not to flush, but I did and it literally fixed my issue within a day...I was seeing nice new green growth. Flush when in doubt!

Not much to update on, was just able to feed today because I watered just before it started showing these sign. I added some fresh dirt on top(roots organic original) and added 300 PPM of nutrition (roots organic as well) we will see what we get.
