Nutrient deficiency?

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what is going on with my plants? I just started flowering phase last week and I’m starting to get a lot of brow/rust spots on my plants fan leaves? I inspected for insect and everything is fine in that aspect but I can’t for the life of me figure out what it is. Please help!!

I’m using happy frog soil the size of the pots are 5 gallon and I just added cal mag and nitrogen after researching what this could possibly be but I haven’t used and nutrients until yesterday

In your last picture they are beginning to turn lighter in color and show the food is gone. Then you flowered the plant without food. So it is not making healthy growth and she's stealing any reserves she can steal.

100% agree. Going to flower with unhealthy plants is just asking for more issues because once you hit a certain point there is no coming back.

Ok what kind of nutrients/fertilizer should I get to perk them back up again, this is my first decent size grow and I’m not to sure what to use, the weird part is they were all growing great and very green until the first 4 days after I switched the light cycle.

The 2nd photo looks like a bit too much N but I agree the plants look hungry overall. HF is pretty depleted by mid veg and beyond. Balanced feed should get them back on track.

They take off and triple in size. They need food. I would just use jacks, cal nit, and mag sulfate. That's just me, everyone will tell you their own favorite line.

This chart shows 3.6 of jacks 5 12 26
2.4 of cal nit
1.2 of mag sulfate

4:2 is 4 and 2 with no epsom salt
