AUTOFLOWER help, Pictures included

Hey guys I have 4 auto's going right now and 1 non auto and my 1 non auto has been flowering for around 50 days. It has some kind of defiecency lol i know that. This is my first grow and I don't want my autos to do what my non auto is doing. My autos have just gotten some kind of problem within the last 5 days and keep looking worse everyday. I'm using ffof and have tigerbloom nutes. Can any of you guys tell me what Im doing wrong and how to fix it? thanks

These are auto plants. Should I give it a big flush with lots of runoff?

From the info/pics provided it looks like they are having some severe deficiencies.

Distilled and RO water lacks Calcium, Mag. Need to substitute those 2 yourself. That's what the brown rust spots that start small an spread throughout the whole leaf are caused by. Starts on lower leaves an works it's way up.

Your soil ph could be causing lockouts with other nutrients also making the problem worse.

I'd advise get a ph tester, ph your soil, trim most of the mostly brown leaves off, add tap water that is ph balanced (6.3-6.5) and some dolomite lime for the Calcium and some epsom salt for Mag. Also some molasses (w/ sulfur)might help too.

Ok I just filled up some tap water and I'm going to let it sit out for around 2-3 days before I have to water them again. How much epsom salt should I add per gal and also what kind of molasses at the store should I get and how much should I mix per gal. Thanks so much for the help

Meant to say molasses "as an alternative" might help too. It contains calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and carbs for your plant (and sulfur if you get molasses w/).

Black Strap Molasses is good. 1-2tbls per gallon.

It looks like your too late to fix those leaves. I would finish with potassium and water and learn to lighten your feeding schedule next time.

Brer rabbit molasses also works well at 1-2 tbsp per gallon. Ive had my autos on molasses and water for three days now and will chop in another four and it makes them look frontier everyday.
 
Thanks for the tip. Should I go with sulfur molasses or non sulfur? Also should I mix it with my distilled water or just tap water that has sat out for 2 days? Thanks everyone for all the help
