I wouldnt sweat it. I'm guessing your nutrient changed some at the transition?
still early enough to add some sea week or fish meal, would help you i bet

Give her a good flush with water, wait a few days then add nutes back. It looks like she's getting locked out of nutes. Also how are your roots? Are you root bound?

I thought the same thing when I looked at the first picture
because of the color

but when I looked at the second pic I realized the first pic the led lights are on

looking at the second pic alone

the leaves aren't super dark green and actually show some mild purple in the center

that and the leaf margins are curling up like a canoe = magnesium def

I could be wrong, it could be magnesium lock out

if you want to play it safe

water with plain water and 1/4 tsp Epsom salt

if the fan leaves start to yellow give nutes

but I honestly think it might be hungry looking at only the second pic

no argument, like I said I could be wrong

I just did this. What exactly does the epsom salt do, for future reference

epsom salt is magnesium sulfate

it adds magnesium and sulfur

sulfur def is rare

but magnesium def might be the most common and Epsom salt the best answer for a magnesium source
not to be confused with
calmag which would be the best source for calcium if your short on calcium

please do flush it though, and give it a week without nutes, it will let you know if its nute locked. Also flushing it will rid of any nasties that may be causing the issue. Spots are 90% due to root problems, so I would start there.

If your in soil, 6.2pH is too low. She can't get to half the Nutes. 6.5 allows for Cal/Mag uptake. Throw all the Cal/Mag you want... She can't "Eat" it.pH_chart7.jpg

Spots are the first sign of a Calcium Issue, Brown random spotting.

just because the water going in is 6.2 doesn't mean the soil ph is 6.2

I willing to bet the soil ph if tested is higher than the source water ph

but if your soil does test low then ; what he said lol

broski95, what air temperatures do you have in the grow space? what lights are you using and how close are they to the plant?

My temp is out of control actually, I'd say 75-85 degrees. I'm limited with my funds for now, just really trying to get this plant through flower and then invest in a good setup yah know

I have to disagree. 85 is hot for an indoor grow. I suspected the temp was high because the leaves show what looks like heat damage.
im4satori, you're like a lot of people I've seen in online forums where you know just enough to be dangerous. Just because you've read text and charts doesn't mean you can help others. You have to be good at diagnosing the problem. Always telling people to use magnesium when the problem isn't magnesium isn't going to help. You keep using the words "possibly" and "maybe," which are not good answers. Why don't you admit to yourself that you don't know what it is or what to do about it, and stay off this board?
