Help! What is My Problem?

Can anyone tell me what this could be? I don't think it's spider mites. I've looked with a microscope and can't see anything moving. I have six plants in soil. All of them are affected with this. I don't want to lose my babies. I am brand new at this and am at a loss... Thanks for any help.

Next time just scroll here and you'll find the answer:
http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=11688
probably came from the lower leaves first then it's
NITROGEN defeciency

if instead it looks like from higher leaves then maybe Iron defeciency but less likely. and there is a slim to none chance of it being sulfur???

Read the link for how to fix and if it might be something else which it's not.


more pics would help but you can take it from here, just look at your crop and the pics in the link bro.

Good luck

Thanks for the responses :) The article was great - I learned a lot. They're about two months old. Where they sit right now is temporary until I can get their permanent space ready. I'm using a T5 Quantum 24 hrs. Not sure what the pH is. A meter is on my list. What should the pH be? I use tap water that has stood for 24-48 hrs. I'm trying to do this as 'economical' (cheap) as possible, so I'm using regular old MiracleGro. Room temp is around 68 degrees. I have some blooming and those are phenomenal. Anyway, thanks for your help. I'm new here & new to growing & you've been a great help.

Based on a blurry pic of only part of a plant, it looks like overfeeding and lockout.

pH should be around 6.3
