After thinking about it, the only thing i did different was spray them with Montery Garden insect spray.
Soo im thinking maybe that could be the cause.
I just hope they dont get any worse.
Not sure what i could do to remedy besides let them grow through the damage.
Theyre not limp and appear good otherwise.
Ill treat the mildew asap.

That was just a few days ago, so it definitely happened quickly if not over night. Im constantly checking on them.
Theyre in organic soil,the hydroton ontop is only to stop direct hot sun from baking the roots

It didn't appear overnight and could be operator error or ph drift
This is my first grow after almost a decade.
Im very rusty, and this is a very important grow to me. So i would appreciate all input.
Ill always be a student of the craft.
And thank you to anyone that can offer me insight.

Treat for powdery mildew (well spotted) and don’t worry about the other patches unless they get any worse, when you sprayed them, were there damp patches that went back under the light? It looks like you have white crystallized patches on some of the leaves and patches of powdery mildew on others.

They are outdoor plants, so theyre under direct sun until the sun moves.
When i saw the damage everything was dry.
They were under the porch top for two days, only having direct sun for a few hours for those two days. They were totally dry, Until i sprayed them with organic insecticide around mid-day.
Then a day or two these blotches appear.
I just ordered some neem oil, so hopefully thatll help.

Their first watering since transplanting was july 15th with ph balanced filtered water and a drop of fulvic acid with ionic minerals.
Then 5 very hot days later i gave them just water, and they perked back up.
The following day i saw some tiny bugs on lower leaves and spot treated with an organic insecticide.

Following that it became rainy for a few days and theyve been under the porch.
The first sunny day i check them out and boom, all of these nasty problems became obvious, and here i am.
I just foiler sprayed them with very mild baking soda/ liquid soap, water mix, then sprayed them again with just water, just incase to dilute any soap residue, so it wont strip the plants wax coating, then dried them by a fan over a few hours that i set outside for them during the night.
Then i felt the pots were a bit light in weight, so i watered them with filtered water and a very light dose of instant compost tea, about 1/4 of recommeded amount.
And that is everything up to this very moment.
I havent slept all night tending to them.
And thank you for taking the time to help me, its much appreciated.
I just noticed purpling on some small stems last night as well.

These modern high end strains seem very finicky, ive never had these issues before.
Especially during veg

Stop moving your plants they grow just fine under indirect sunlight all over the world
Pest almost always come with moving plants around
Weed likes a consistent environment not max sun

Rain is a non issue in a vegging plant

EDIT: Lose the hydration clay balls next time
they did nothing for you the way you used them
Originially didnt have them ontop, but someone said my roots would get roasted without a top layer to buffer the heat, so gave it a try.
My main use for them was to add in the soil mix, as surface area for beneficial bacteria to form on.

These girls are all being transplanted into 30 gallon grow bags next week

Not sure of your location but thirty gallon isn't needed this late in season if in US
