Ok 1st thing 1st check your roots. It looks to be mild but I can kinda see the yellowish pale green spots and Ive had my plants do that exact same thing befor. Whats your ph at right now? Have you calibrated your ph meter lately? After you check these simple things first then try the cal-mag. Get some close up pics so we can see it better.
Good luck
BigGreen

my roots looks ok.no root rot or something wrong.smells is no bad
and the water temps are 21c.
ph 5.6-5,9-i check it with 2 ph metres-

and some fotos.

Ok better pics. I had some look like that about 6 months ago in a ebb & flo tray. Try adding the cal-mag at 5ml per gallon and bring your ph up to 6.0. DO NOT cut any more leaves it will then spread to your new leaves. Just do these little things and I probably wouldnt put them in to flower until you see its not spreading any more. The effected leaves will not go back to normal what you wanna watch is that no more new growth gets the defficency
Good luck and Im sure we can figure it out for ya

Oh ya check your under side of the leaves first to make sure there is no bugs it could possibly be mites but I cant tell. Do this be for you add anything to your rez

I had the same spotting problem.

I had the same spotting problem.

I had the same spotting issue. I was told by another grower to turn down the fan and not to have the fan pointed right on the plants. After I moved the fan and turned it down the problem went away. He said some strains do better in wind than others. Just my two cents im not a very experienced grower.

i saw in your thread the def you told me.is not the same with me.
your def looks like mg def..mine looks like ca def.
and by the way i want to tell you i like your hempy buckets.

my ph right now at 6,0 and my ppm at 850.yestreday i gived then
30ml cal-mag -in 70litres- and now i wait...if my problem it doesnt
go, then i change the water.
my roots are almost white and the temps are optimal.

tjo not sure if u are keeping your ph at a set point (5.5-5.8) but different elements absorb at different ph levels u might try letting the ph swing a bit larger as in 5.2 - 6.2 and see if this helps and btw if u dont flip those girls to 12/12 soon u gonna have a massive forest on your hands not a bad thing

3 times in a month is perfect. Keep up on the rez changes and add your cal-mag watch and see if they get better just remember not to cut off any more def leaves because it will take over the new growth.
Good luck
