So I’m growing some plants and I had them in a closet that had a laundry dryer hose running through it. Long story short my plants got extremely stressed from the dense humidity in the closet that I did not notice until some time later on. The plants are now in a secure room and healing but now I have some foliage issues. I will attach pics, please help this is my first grow and I don’t want to screw it up. I’m worried it may be mold but it’s only on 2 out of 5 plants, I just don’t want it to spread.

they actually look OK m8 I would trim off the affected leaves as the new growth dont seem affected i would just but in a small tent or room with a humidifier and try keep the humidity around 50 to 70 then you be well on your way to a nice happy plant but they look OK tbh lots of leaves nice and green what nuets are you using there is a product that biobizz use called acti-vera it has aloe vera in it and puts a nice coating on your plant and keeps it from infection and disease when you foliar feed and add to your water its a great product strongly recommend in your situation. But I wouldn't worry to much my m8

What are you growing in? Are those clear pots? What are you feeding? What is your pH? The plants look hungry and short on P and Mg, but most likely it's either they aren't getting any at all, which I doubt, or you have it bound up via the pH. When you share your details, we'll know more. Good luck.

Surprisingly they look ok, it’s not mold... unfortunately if you don’t have an environment ready for flowering you’re in for a world of hurt. They get big, they stink real good and they go moldy if they’re cramped in a tight space, and if it’s hot they’ll be burnt/dead before you get a friendly flame to them.

Like I said, it’s my first grow and I wasn’t expecting a whole lot but the plants are doing decent. I have my plants in water jugs and I don’t feed them anything but water, I was kinda doing this low budget until I had more money to buy the right setup. I know a lot of what I’m doing isn’t correct but I just figured I try something since I had the space. I will try correcting the ph and hopefully that will help and I’m still learning about feeding. I appreciate any advice, I’m still very new and I don’t know diddly about growing lol

Basically I’m inexperienced and on a budget but the other plants are doing ok (the pics I posted were one plant) and if I remove any fan leaves affected with (whatever it is) then I’m better off just chucking that plant because it’s all over it, I don’t have nutes but I could get some, I know nothing about feeding either.

One more thing, I’m using fluorescent shop lights nothing fancy and I mixed fox farm hf with top soil, roots organic and pearlite for my soil. I know I’m a newbie so be nice lol

Your setup will work well enough, all things considered...but to help;

Cover your pots with something that prevents the light from shinning thru.
A little Epsom salt won't hurt you...it's easy enough to get and it's affordable. It will help all of them...especially your problem child.
Good luck

I covered the pots, I didn’t even realize light degrades the roots oops and I will go out and get some Epsom salt. I’m sure this will do wonders, you probably just saved my whole grow so thank you for the much needed advice. I’m new so I’m learning bits as I go.

You saved your grow...I wasn't the one who asked the question; you were. The epsom should have directions on the bag...pretty straight forward. Good luck.
