i have never had THIS problem before. this is on of 3 plants that are showing this problem. it seems to be getting worse overnight. i had mildew so i've sprayed peroxide and baking soda. i also have caterpillars so i sprayed BT. i don't know if the spraying caused this or if it a disease. either way it doesn't look good.

thats horrible!!! from the pictures it doesnt seem like its all over the plant? is there any bugs underneath the leafs that have the spots? almost looks like its rotting away???? maybe you sprayed all those chemicals and such and it had a bad reaction? try spraying it down with water possibly?

Yeah, it looks like a reactions to the sprays. You might try taking off the extremely damaged leaves.

Have you tried foliar feeding with just some water yet? Maybe you can flush some of the toxins out??

This definately looks like one of your sprays, possibly a reaction between the two. Try spraying the entire plant down with plain water, wait 5 min. and respray. I would probably do this three or four times. Avoid bright sun as you could further burn the leaves. But whatever you do get that stuff off of your beauty ASAP. It may be you accidentally used too strong a dose of H2O2.

I agree it looks like the spray, those marks seem to have a round pattern like liquid sprayed on something. Good luck bud, you'll be fine I'm sure....I have faith in you as does most of this site...lol

Try and have a good weekend:mrgreen:

so a few, well many, years ago i had some plants out back. my ex-father-in-law was up on the roof so i had to bring my babies in for 3 days. i didn't know any better so i just put them in the bathroom during the day then back outside at night. well after 3 days the leaves started wilting/rotting or dieing or something. i know it was from lack of light. it looked a lot similar to the 3rd picture. the leaves would curl and die, turning a blackish color. this plant WAS in the back corner until i pulled her out yesterday. the area that is effected was not getting any direct sunlight. i think between the spraying, the mildew, the lack of light and general over-crowding, i'm lucky it's not worse.

it's in the sun this morning. it looks ok. it seems some of the leaves are perking up. i'm gonna keep a close eye on it. we have a lot of morning dew so it gets rinsed every morning. if it still looks as bad this evening i will rinse it before the sun comes up tomorrow morning.

thank you everyone for your help.

While you are at it, you might have to flush too. Some of the chems could have dripped down into the soil. Hopefully it's just light deprivation and nothing more. Would be a shame to lose such an impressive looking plant.

it has been very hot latly so maybe its just the liquid on the leaves burning them through the magnifiying effect so I maybe would be carful to spray them again with just water. maybe you should spray water on some other non cannabis plant on a real hot day and see if it does that to them.

I doubt natural sunlight would be so intense as to burn leaves from water droplets. HID lighting, yes. Sunlight? I doubt it. JMHO.

fdd, I think it is the spraying....some strains are more sensitive than others....I am having the same problem with my plants....I only try and spray the areas on leaves that have PM on them and then I do not saturate to the point of runoff...when the baking soda or peroxide solution sits on the leaves it can burn them...rinsing after a while is a good idea....I even shake my plants after spraying with anti PM spray to remove some excess...I also wipe down some leaves with soft paper towel and I use a q-tip to get into nooks and crannies on the bud leaves...also you could try diluting the solutions a little bit.
PM is a major pain in the ass this year!!!....Good Luck!!!!

I think I may have the same problem, only worse, however I haven't sprayed anything on the leaves at all, except plain water and sometimes carbonated seltzer water. I was thinking it was some kind of mold or mildew b/c it seems to have spread to the other plants, It's not at the crop-threatening level yet, however I want to stop it as soon as possible. Well, I'm going to go take some pics, will post them up in a few minutes.

well, here's some pics. I don't know that it's the same problem, but it looks pretty similar. I had it about a week and a half ago, but it went away then a few days ago it returned with a vengeance, now on 3 plants instead of 1.

The first 2 pics are of the plant that hasn't begun flowering yet, it is the newest victim and shows how this thing progresses. It begins with some small brown (sometimes copper colored) spots, then they get bigger and darker until the leaf dries out and curls up.

The second 2 pics are of the second plant affected. This plant is in flower. However, you can see from the last pic that the bud production hasn't seemed to be affected. in the background in the last pic is the first plant which had it the first time it came around. It's pretty much the same on all the plants.

Anyway thanks for helping, how did you deal with your problem?
