Plant has weird spots and looks has really weird leaves

I wanted to get some povs from fellow growers I’ve never seen this before .... I use FFOF Soil I haven’t been phing and I think maybe that’s the problem

Im fairly confident that “ not “ ph’ing your water is the culprit. I’m sure others will disagree and that’s fine too. A ph that’s not sitting where it should be based on the medium you’re using prohibits the plants ability to utilize/eat the food you provide it, which explains the spots and bright green you’re seeing. Get the ph under control, everything will work itself out.

Could even be strain specific or related to your specific water makeup..my buddy lives about 10miles away and is growing a ww auto in ffhf and he does not check pH at all just waters with tap water and adds a little cal mag every 3rd watering. He stunted it early on with overwatering, but he's close to harvest and for a first grow, it looks good. I on the other hand pH my tap water...next run I will try some double ak47 autos and skip the pH step.

Thanks I’ll try that next watering I thought that was it because I’ve never had that problem with other grows because I always ph just thought I’d try something new but aye we all learn haha

Unless your water is 9-10 ph it shouldn't be a problem.FF doesnt put enough lime in for CaMg and some strains are just hogs.
People should add lime or some sort of Mg supplement before planting.
Keep in mind ea bag can have different pH,so some need ph up cause of the peat.One really needs a proper soil pH probe to know for sure.

I commend you on trying things out for yourself vs going by what everyone says, including myself. Like I said, some people will feel different about ph’ing and that’s ok, what works for some doesn’t necessarily work for others, and I see you figured that out. I tried it myself wnd it didn’t work out too well, this is the only reason I advocate ph’ing.
