It's hard to tell right from wrong sometimes. At this point see if what you've done helps. If not, you know what tree to go barking up.
That's why I sent you that link & those pictures because people are going to show up and say it's a calcium issue

that's why it's hard to diagnose leaf spot, go by the brown with the black ring around it on the bright green leaves, I sent you a picture of my plant and the plant from that link are almost identical, that's classic septoria. I also sent pictures of other leaves to show you it can look like calcium, mites, heat stress ..it can look like all of them together in one picture?! it is tricky to diagnose, I hope it's only calcium for your sake?

How is your humidity been? ..mine's almost 90% right now, and it's not even raining it hardly ever gets below 65% here anymore except winter

* also keep pH at a steady 6.5 for best results

Well the humidity stays between 50-60% usually but I live in Georgia where Florence impacted a little. It’s been rainy and humid as hell here around 95 degrees. So that’s been a big issue and pretty much when the storm started to hit us when my plants started this problem. It’s around 78-80 degrees in the tent but at night drops to around 70 degrees. So usually everything is good, I think it was the storm tbh...

And I always ph around 6.5 with 6.2 being the lowest I go in soil.

I just took this on a plant that I'm burning sulfur for right now, in the picture and every picture I sent you it's not calcium my plants get plenty at a usable pH

if you look back as soon as you said you were using Mega crop I suggested you eliminate the possibility that it could be a calcium issue. I used it and as I mentioned had some issues w/ it (I no longer use it)

the trouble is this looks like calcium, or this looks like mites or this and that? but if you look for the brown spot with the black ring around it ..that's classic septoria. There are better pictures here already..20180924_074029.jpg ..but here's another

Stop going to 6.2. Your humidity is likely high, a temperature / humidistat gauge that recordes highs and lows for about $8 is a necessity if you decide to continue doing this in the future

Alright amigo, well you'll have to decide that's why I put so many pictures cuz I knew the "it's this or that crowd" would show up. I hope it's calcium but I think it's leaf spot. I've given you all the information, links and the pictures that I have to help you make and informed decision, good luck!

Thanks Growmie! Much appreciated, here they come lol. I’ll get back to you on what happens to her.

I've only seen septoria outdoors,even then one treatment with copper fungicide took care of it.You either spilled something or your ph is off.

Well this plant went to shit in about a week. Every leaf is dying quickly. I fed it properly along with giving her extra cal mag lately. Ph was always between 6.2-6.5. Not sure what happened but I think I’m just going to cut her down. :/

septoria will take a plant down in about a week to 10 days, if you don't want to put a picture I don't blame you, it's not pretty; plus I already know what it looks like but I thought it might be good for some of these folks who think it only happens outdoors, but humidity is humidity, and it's extremely difficult to eradicate indoors. Better luck next grow (use copper spray next time)

Well I got copper spray a few days ago like you recommend. Sprayed once and it seem to of “held” back the spreading but didn’t stop it. I also sprayed baking soda water every night before lights out the past few days. Still spreading. Every leaf has spots and I already picked off the very dead leaves. She’s pretty ugly. Even the pistils are turning orange from white all over and it doesn’t look good.
