Deficiency or lockout?

Hey guys,

So i noticed some tip burn on my super lemon OG plants and now I m seeing this. Its kind of difficult to see but what i am talking about is the little orange/rust colour dots on the leaves. The plants are overall light in colour and I am wondering if this is a lockout of some sort or deficiency? any help would be appreciated, thanks!

a lock out would report as a deficiency/ results of one. yes, it may be both at the same time
what is your ph, feeding habits, watering, lights, nutrient source, substrate, and
is the rest of the plant available for photo's?

time for cal-mag

I vote for a ph issue causing a lockout

have to wait to hear from op. maybe op comes back and says I poured a bottle of molasses and a carton of milk of magnesia for some extra boost or something....or maybe is using a quality nutrient system while following directions and all other plants are doing well, and this one is failing. impossible to know without details.....doooddaaaaahhh

PH sits around 5.6-5.8 EC is between 1.6-1.8, I am in a greenhouse using strictly sunlight at this time no supplimental lighting. I am growing in pro-mix mycorrhizae feeding with advanced nutrients Sensi bloom part A and B. About 50% of the plants are like this the rest are still showing tip burn but no orange dots.

Pro mix should be ph'd to 6.3. Could be a ph lockout issue.

You're using Advanced Nutrient's PH perfect Sensi Bloom? I use it too! the ph is 5.8 but don't mess with it they told me I don't even use my ph meter anymore.

Those are Russet or Broad Mites man. You cannot see them with the naked eye. You can see the damage though. They are viewable with a 60x microscope...even a handheld one will work (as long as it goes up to 60x). They like it hot and dry. They are the bane of the cannabis and hemp existence...

I agree with the others seeing a calcium deficiency / lockout.
Only 50% of the plants have it you said. Were all treated the same?
Clone or seed? Seeds are less likely to express the same as their sisters. The other plants may be close to showing the necrotic spots also. A trick I use to look for necrotic spots is to take a small but strong flashlight and put the light on the underside of the leaf to light it up, can help spot early signs of necrotic spots.

I'd post full plant pics.....for better answers

Im with Mendoper. You got bugs. Thats not a lockout or deficiency.

I didn't realize it was outside, lots of bugs out there.
What type of bug do you think caused the damage?

Broad mites or Spider mites, I see mite damage. A closer look of the underside of the leaves by the grower could shed some light.

Can you actually see any mite damage?

yes....pests.....russet mites would be my guess as well.

Another vote for bugs above.
Just want to ask you.
All I see are necrotic spots.
Are you seeing it the same as me?
