Worried about this little girl...

Any doctors want to give me a diagnosis? Looks like N deficiency for the yellowing, but I can't understand the black spots. She was given to me as a gift, I'd like her to bear gifts for my friend in return... soil is unknown type from friends garden (grows good veggies!) mixed with MG potting soil (mistake I know, getting Ocean Forest later today).

I'm not sure exactly what caused that, but it doesn't look that bad. I had a similar thing happen with a couple of my seedlings several weeks back and I was using MG perlite. They kept right on growing shed those leaves and replaced em with a bunch more healthy looking ones. I think I was overwatering mine at one point and thought that might have caused it on mine...
 
DrWatson nailed it on the head...overwatering. At this point you may have wash out a significant portion of nitrogen. Wait until the soil dries out, then hit it with a veg formula (or repot). Yellow leaves will spot up like that with a nitrogen deficiency.
 
yea...well there you have it from somebody with a lot more posts than me...thanks for the reassurance UserFreindly it feels good to know I'm learning....
 
I want to put this whole oz in my cereal bowl with some milk and eat it like fruity pebbles... right there with ya on that taste thing as you can see ;)
