I have posted about this one in my journal (see sig) but here are some updated pics. The only thing I could find in the sticky that looked like it was the mg deficiency but I have no idea? The brown spots dont really show up well in the pics and I had already cut some of the worst leaves off. Do you all think the splotchyness and the little cuts in the leaves are linked? I swear I dont see any evidence of pests and have had a hot shot strip in there for 24 hours. Any ideas??? I think my ph is good b/c I'm using 6.0-6.5 after nutes are added, the soil is pro mix which has dolomitic lime to buffer the ph. Unfortunately I can't test the runoff b/c I jsut have a dropper ph tester.

The first few pics are of the plant in question. Then the other plants from it's tub (the tiny one is getting tossed - never recovered from downey mildew.) The real bushy one is another Alaskan ICe - different pheno, the other healthy one is G13 Pure Power and the two weak ones ar chocolope. Then THere's a pic of four pretty healthy chocolopes. So far five of the plants have shown their pretty white hairs.

Btw, they jsut woke up and were watered yesterday hence the droopy leaves. Also, hit the ailing one with a mild foliar epsom salt spray.

I had the same problem. CalMag did the trick. I am using Distilled H20 / RO H2O and needed the mineral boost. Plants love it.
I also added some liquid seaweed. The guys at my local hydro shop suggested it. Your plants look nice man!

you need to get the PH and EC of the runoff. Do that first and with that info I can help you.

I can't test the ph of the runoff and didnt test the ec, but i have only fed them twice since transplanting from cups into promix with no nutes and after the first time the tds was under 700 so I don't think its a lockout. I gave her a little epsom salt foliar (from the problem sticky) and some in the soil. When it dried I rinsed her off. I will be able to check in a couple hours, hopefully she's perked up.

they just look waaaaay to wet.
The plants had been watered the day before and I sprayed that one with an epsom salt foliar as recomended in the sticky on plant problems plus the lights had just come on but you can see that they've perked up pretty well and the damage on that particular plant doesnt seem to be spreading. Im going to be moving them into tubs this weekend and will be giving them straight water on their next watering - would you put some cal mag in it if it were you? I still cant figure out what's chewing them, I might let off a fogger jsut for fun. I'd rather try to make sure there arent any pests before they get any bigger and harder to deal with.

These are just after lights on today
