Got about 20 plants starting 3rd week of veg, had a few minor nitrogen defiencies but fixed them! Went to bed last night and all plants looked fine! Checked this morning and my critical cheese has one leaf that has a shiny, wax like appearance by the tips and has a brown spot almost decay look, then my headband just as some white or whitish green spots on the leaves with tiny, tiny pieces of the leaves missing! Including pics! IMG_0524.JPG IMG_0525.JPG IMG_0526.JPG IMG_0527.JPG IMG_0528.JPG IMG_0529.JPG

I just had something very similar. 1st are you waiting to water until the pots are light? Nutes? mine turned out to be water retention in soil and nute burn. https://www.rollitup.org/t/help-please.925824/

I let mine dry out and did not flush (never had luck with it in 20+ years), but started her back at 1/4 strength on nutes and she is happy today

Yeah haven't fed them nutes, just whatever comes in roots organic potting soil, and I water them every 3-4 days, thanks for the reply man, I have done plenty of outside grows this is my first inside, and only 2 out of 20 have that look, just trying to stay on top of things!

Them plants look about ready for a multicide or spinosad anyway

Probably is thrips or spider mites or something like that

Keep an eye out for mouths and caterpillars too

you can also get Gants easy too... top dress with more perlite that can help

I mean nothing else apart from a spill on the leaves or touching them with dirty hands that can do that over night

Most of the time people have a bug issue and are in denial about it you normally find out such people don`t treat for any bugs and say "I don`t have bugs"...... they claim a nitrogen deff and I`m like "yes the bugs are eating the plants so there is nitrogen missing from them"

I use roots organic and that holds water 7+ days, I drilled a 3/4" hole in pot at bottom and it is wet on day 7. Too much water. Plants don't like wet feet. That soil holds a ton of water, I realized you can't just water like normal

That is true check for mites
