So like the title says whats goin on with the plants? Im new to growing and im wondering if its like a nutrient deficiency with them?

The 3 plants in question are the same strain, ethos grandpas cookies #6 x zwag #23. The other plant (bacio gelato) seems to be having no problems as far as I can tell.

The only bugs ive seen were 2 or 3 of them little nats that were in the soil, but I haven't seen anymore.

Look at picture #2, get a magnifying glass and take a close look on it and under the leaves for very tiny bugs. Also more information would help light, substrate, nutrients etc... The more information you give the better help you'll get.

Pic #1 and pic #6 could be P def.

Looks like spider mites. Get that plant out of there! Get a magnifying glass and check the underside of the leaves for little black dots and webbing. Google two spotted spider mites so you will know what they look like as they crawl by. If you have a bad spider mite infestation it will eventually kill everything in the room. You'll have to trash everything and sanitize the room before restarting. The stuff of growers' nightmares. They are controllable if you act fast. The leaves will look bronze colored and eventually the whole plant will be covered in webs. You are in the early stages if you have spider mites. DO NOT WAIT! They have a 21-day life cycle and multiply quickly. Sorry man. Good Luck. I Hope I'm wrong but look it up anyway. It's a good thing to know about.

Yea, they suck. I had them and I thought it was powdery mildew. It was the wrong color though. Was the plant just fading a weird bronze color? I pulled a fan leaf off and put it under the microscope. I saw a few weird black dots and suddenly two nasty fu@$ ers walked by. I had to trash that plant. There were a few on some other plants but no so bad. They only had a week or two to go so I chopped the and made hash. I hate those things. You have to be careful what you bring into your grow space. Soil, cuttings and transplanting "substrate" can all harbor pests.

It looks like a mite to me, but to be sure you need better magnification. If it's mites you need to treat them. Hopefully the mite experts will swing by soon.
