Well it could be allot of things, like an excesses in fertiliser or too little or maybe even too much watter. Some pics would help and information on the grow is the only way anyone can make an assessment.

Actually, in all reality it could be rust. Rust has been known to affect some plants (peas, beans, etc). Rust tends to be more prominent in cool, damp weather because it is just a fungus. It will stunt growth on the plants making them pretty useless so I hope it isn't really what you have. I would love to see photos of yours to compare to others.

yes it could be alot of things but 1 in particular comes to my mind is a cal/mag problem like what happend to me or acidic soil locking out nutrients pics would help alot but if you look through my floering link below at pics you can compare if its the same not sure what page close to the beginning

Thank you. Im kinda an old schooler and dont yet know how to get pic on,i will try to figure it out today. I am well ventilated with two thousand and two 600 wat lights. I am using fox farm soil and fox farm nutes. I have had two crops with great sucess. I am in three gal pots. this has been my only prob,no mites, scale,etc. so far. the only thing I changed is the amount of nutes. i was feeding them about half of what the bottles say and I averaged three to four ounces per plant. someone told me that if i fed the full amount I would get a bigger yeald. I think that might be my problem. I flushed last night, but I dont see a change yet. Ya think my friend is an idiot, if so that makes me one to. thanks for any help and please excuse my spelling.

page 9 and 17 was the best pics i found, i had rust like your saying it was caused by my soil being to acidic i neutralized the ph with dolomite lime and the plant just kept growing the leaves that were rusty all slowly died off but the plant was very potent lol
but would be good for pics dont add anything until your sure and when you add one thing wait dont add a bunch of stuff, do the elimination process slow and steady..

this is how i figured out my problem which was my ph being too acidic scroll down about 3/4 you will see the ph troubles area but there are a few problems there that looks like rust like boron, magnesium, calcium but acidic soil will lockout nutrients as well!! keep us posted in what you figure out dont jump the gun though adding the wrong thing can kill your babies!! you will need a ph kit to figure that out
