Yeah obviously it's just all the years I've grown this is the first time I've seen that. It's normally slugs or dear in my area. Some times mites.

I do see that some of the "bleach looking spots" are faded and not really leaving a scab. That could be PH, overwatering, slight underfeeding, or there could be bug bites on the underside. Still, the neem would be wise if you're growing outside to begin with.

I don't have any. Was going to try to make some citrus spray from my indoor lemon tree. At least try that first.

Might work, if you know how to do it properly. Neem, though, will improve your plant's health and resistance. It works as a systemic.

My pH is hitting damn close to seven. They get guano tea every other week. Plus I used guano pellets and dolomite lime when I transplanted. I didn't really do shit with my.soil this year so I've had alot of different problems. My other plants are two weeks into flower and I just can't seem to get the nitro into them fast enough. It's been a battle this year. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah I've used it before it works great. Live in Vermont so there aren't to many citrus loving bugs around. I'll look into that neem oil though I didn't know it had other benefits. Is it all organic

Completely organic, comes from neem plant. Has micronutrients, is antifungal (although pretty sure it doesn't fuck with myco or bennies), insecticidal, and it helps with a few other things.

Smells kind of like old Chinese food, though.

Thanks maybe I'll just go grab some. I am doing foliar feeding now to correct the nitro problem on other plants. Is it something I'll have to reapply or affect the leaves from taking in nuets.

I use every 2 weeks outdoor plants and it doesnt seem to effect anything else but bugs.
Ive never needed it indoors yet.

When feeding my plants I spilled my nutes drops all-over my leaves. Kinda looked like the spots on your plant

This is either mag def or your pH is fucked. Also, heat and chlorosis. I think the chlorosis is from either underfeeding or pH causing lockout.

Is there anything I can do? Was thing just cut of the top. But the infection prob started from bottom 2 top.
She was my most promising plant she's was almost 3m tall untill she stop growing 2weeks ago.
So I should just cop her and move on?

Here is another picture of the progression. I'm not thinking bugs but I'm still not sure. All the problems I've had this year I bet it's some def.

Now that I think maybe it's a burn. This particular plant plot did test higher for nutrients.

It is breakdown, you have the same issue at the roots. What you see above is happening below. Note the fern. Ferns hate calcium. You need calcium to make the roots strong and to multiply. They probably are just breaking into the nasty subsoil below and waterlogged. There is an oak leaf there, this is an acidic soil. Low calcium will let aluminum come in, advanced senility (Alzheimers for plants).
Got milk? Calcium carbonate? Gypsum? NEVER DOLOMITE.

You have soil analysis?

Erian,
The leaf symptom is called shot hole, read page 735. Something is tweaked. Do you have a soil analysis?

Calcium problem, plants are growing too fast and can't pick up calcium fast enough. How is your boron level in the soil? Do you have a soil analysis? Are you using nitrates? There is a visual zinc deficiency, I see lots of grass, that means high K and little Ca, some serious taco going on, twisting leaves on new growth, classic calcium deficiency, usually induced for pushing K or being in washed out soils, that have nothing to begin with.
