Tiny orange spots on leaves!!

Over the last week or so I’ve started to notice tiny orange spots on the leaves. Seems to be spreading at a fairly fast rate on two of my plants that entered flower about 2 weeks or so ago. There is also some yellowing starting in the veins of the leaf and spreading outwards as you can see in the pic.
I checked run off ph and it was 6.2
Temps are between 78-80
Rh is being kept at around 40 (35-45)
Can’t figure out what this is, help and solutions are appreciated! Pics below

what are you feeding pal and whats your medium? Your run off is a little hight maybe give a good flush make sure you get rid of your run off and plant dont suck it back up give 2 flushes and go from there they look good other than that pal wouldn't change anything drastic flush and restart your feed slowly they won't die from a underdose but dam hard to recover from an overdose

I’m feeding flora trio, liquid koolbloom, floralicious plus, rapidstart, and calmag. Growing in soil with a FFOF and FF Happy Frog mix for my medium. I’ll give it a good flush tomorrow morning and slowly introduce feed again in the next few days or so. Any ideas what could be causing the spotting tho? And is it a big deal or nah?

I have done loads of grows and some of the plants have had spots its never been an issue. Fox farm dose tend to be hight in fert very hot soil i would defo suggest giving a good flush and starting with half strength think that will sort it. Best thing I ever did was use biobizz line its simple and have never had no issues and all organic winner winner lol

Looks like potassium deficiency. Older leaves.

Reassess your feed ... you are dumping extra nute on top of Hot soil ( FFOF and HF both ) . Your nitro use in flower is high ( shiny dark leaf ) which is one problem to start . Also seeing foxtails and can be attributed to your feed besides genetics or environment causes.

Second , Stop checking run off with FFOF ... EVERYTIME you water it to a point of runoff to check , you leach the medium.
This unbalances the medium . You should add ph of 6.5 always with FFOF / HF when running as a base. Anything different it begins to lockout. Sometimes upping it to 6.6/6.7 allows fo minor drift.....

All of those bottled Nutes introduce more complexity to a simple bagged soil grow. Meaning ... instead of letting medium to do the initial feeding ( by itself ) you add an entire bottled regiment to an already “ nuted “ soil. Other less ammended soil mixes could probably “ work thru “ the excess . IMO you should be on Koolbloom only ( instead of plus ) , Rapidstart ( for root / transplanting) has no reason to be added , Calmag can be a necessary evil at times tho............

FFOF / Hf added by handful or so and watered in instead would “ feed “ that plant instead of a hundred bottles.

IMO if you simplified feed you would hav Less issues .

yeah I know. I usually don’t feed with FFOF and HF, but after about 45 days of watering my plants started to become deficient as they had used up most of the nutes in the soil/they had been flushed out (probably from checking run off ph, I’ll stop doing that) I only started to feed after that began to happen. I’m not currently using rapidstart either, I just meant I used that when watering at the beginning of the grow. Yeah, the plant might be foxtailing a bit, I just figured it looked like that because it just stopped stretching like two days ago so buds haven’t really began to develop structure yet. Any idea how I can get the nitrogen and whatever this spotting problem is under control?

It won't...I'm stoned and thinking magnesium...But the blackstrap molasses will work for potassium!! And makes great cookies. Sorry for the added confusion!

don’t have any blackstrap molasses. I suppose I could buy some. Would increasing the dose of a fert high in K such as koolbloom work? Or should I just spring for the blackstrap?

wow now I'm even confused its over nuted its under nutes lol looking at it I really don't think its over fed as its it was normally the very top of the plant and new growth would be yellow at the tips and most the yop of the plant in your case its bit random everywhere yet some leaves are OK is its a tough one this...... again I really think your should give a good flush clean that hot soil out then go half strength and keep an eye on the new growth if it stays the same then you no it needs some food in her hope all works out mate

Try to water them pHed plain water to have 10% runoff and measure EC when its more than 2,1 max than gain water step by step and measure EC step by step (0,1l runoff is one step) you want 1,4 and when you reach this than put nuts in EC 1,6 (when we talk about fotos???). When your EC is not an issue then would be probably soil pH, then you will need liquid calcium carbonate...

Black strap molasses has alot of goodies in it. Calcium, magnesium, and potassium to name a few. You should never flush soil unless it's your last option.
