So I did a little reading and it looks like you nailed it. One of the causes is root issues. I had a problem a week or so ago and had to remove as much root as I could. They came back strong but for whatever reason I blocked this out of my analysis. Thanks again.

No way that's from air flow.
Those spots look like bug damage to me -- the live tissue is gone, but they leave the membrane behind. So you get little see-thru windows.
Did you check under the leaves? You have to look very closely - spider mites and thrips are tiny - use a hand lens. Mites don't fly, neither do all species of thrips. A fungus is an off-possibility. There are bunches of fungi called "anthracnose" that attack somewhat like that (but they're usually associated with high humidity and overwatering).

I hear ya... If you cruise enough of these "plant problem" threads with pic's, you find that one man's zinc deficiency is another man's cal/mag imbalance. That's the problem with MJ still being basically a black-market plant -- no real science being done on growing it.

What are the NPK values of the foods? May be insect damage, nutrient imbalance (probably too much P). Whatever, you have moisture loss working.
Good luck,

for veg it's 24-8-16 and flower is 15-30-15 I doubt it's too much P, cause I barely feed her, it would be a deff if anything, but you can't really see from these pics, but it looks like powdery mildew on the leafs, only on the bottem and middle though. My temps are in the low 80's and my humidity is only 20-30%. I'm just so confused. I haven't ran into this crap before.
UB,
I know we can't follow a schedule and must learn to read a plants needs. Do you have any guidelines to how to start feeding?
I found this in an other thread:

I found this in an other thread:
I find my self always feeding week nutes and not wanting to burn my plants. I'm new to soil and in hydro I never really stepped up the nutes. I used one strength for veg from just having roots to going to flower... I never burned any plants but think that I was doing the optimal fertilizing...

You give the plant more nutes if it needs it like during the stretch. Less if it doesn't like seedling stage and very late flowering. Your call.
UB,
I'm a bit confused. If I have understood you correctly, you have said that the Lucas formula doesn't have all 16 minerals that a plant needs and that this isn't a good thing.
Jack's doesn't either. I do grow in soil and know that the Lucas formula is targeted for hydro. Maybe this is why they don't have all 16, but I'd like to get your input on this.
I also have some dyna-gro products which do have all 16, but I don't like paying to ship water, I'm looking for a complete fert that is dry.
Should I suppliment with dyna-grow or assume my soil has the missing minerals?

Doesn't need to, it's designed for soil that should provide quite a bit of nutrition.
Depends on what's in your soil.

hi
jsut a couple of quick Qs
ive searched everywere for peters but not available in the uk but i have found dyna- grow, found a 9-3-6 called foliage pro and a 3-12-6 bloom theyre here http://orchidaccessories.co.uk/catalog/index.php/cPath/34 are these the right ones ?
can't get spinout microkote or anything over here but i have heard of people lining pots with copper tape and have heard that works for root pruning, can i ask your thoughts on this and are those nutes the right ones
many thanks

First off, much RESPECT to UB and many other for the correct info and patience you all have in answering all those quetions. THANK YOU ALL. now my questions.Using organic nutes 6-4-3 GROW 2-6-6 BLOOM. 1st question is if these are a good NPK ratio is all in one doing very well for the plants. 2nd it says to water with nutes every 3rd watering, water/water /nutes etc. was wondering if i can water with nutes at every watering if i use only 1/2 strength. thanks in advance. ps first grow.
