is it something on the leaf or in them?

if its on the leaf it may be powdery mildew wich can spread and pose a serious issue. if its in the leaf it may be a deficiency, wich one im not sure. first thing to do is get a accurate PH reading of your soil and make sure its in a acceptable range. i believe 6.8 is the "Ideal" Ph for soil but 6.6-7.0 is also acceptable. depending on the PH check a chart to find out wich nutes are locked out that your current PH reading. then go from there. generally stabalizing the PH will fix the issue as these nutrients are already in the soil just unable to be absorbed due to PH lockout.

hope this could help :)

Ps. if its on the outside of the leaves and it is in fact powdery mildew there are tons of safe remedies to get rid of it without using chemicals as it looks like your plants are a couple weeks into flower avoiding chemicals right now is always a plus :)

thats kinda what i was thinking. looks like they been grubbin but he would have noticed them i think. plus its hard to diagnose without knowing all the facts. examine ur plants regularly. preventative maint is the best way to keep them healthy.

Yup looks like bugs. Check under the leafs for tiny moving dots spray with water to see if you have webs the mist will bead up and you will know.

i dont know the ph of the soil or any parameters :( its just planted in multipurpose soil.
always watered with fish tank water... lol (its next to the plant) ph of my tap water is 7.8

i havnt sprayed with water, ever. i will try to get a few more pics.

the stuff on the leaf i can only describe as slug juice? (like dried salt crystals reflecting) if you know what i mean.
Only reaally old large leaves seem to be dieing off from this infestation. and when the older leaves die they are going spotted/blothcy brown/yellow colours.

higher quality pics are needed i think. i post some more 2 moro. (lights are off)


Thanks.

I just had this problem. Its spider mites. The leaves have brown spots and eventually turn all brown and fall off. Get some neem oil and mix it with water and add a little bit of mild liquid dish soap. The neem oil has the recipe. Mix this in a spray bottle. Just before the lights go, out spray the plant (top and underside). I also spray around the drain holes on my pots. You might need 2-3 applications but it should do it if it hasn't gotten too infested.

neem is the safest way to get rid of them without damaging the plant more. um try some sm-90 it pretty bangin and since u said they sare everywhere u will probably need it. ur gonna have to buy something to get rid of them. or better yet toss it out and start over if its too bad.

your plants not budding heavy yet cover the soil take it to the shower and and flip it upside down wash it real good. gently rub the leafs to get everything off you will need some spinosad

You are correct its thrips.
I dont understand. You never mention anything about web,s but everybody keeps saying "OMG ITS SPIDER MITES". No its not lol. Come on people, SPIDER mites as in web producing SPIDERS...
I use doctor doom or avid for thrips. Lot of other organic remedy's out there as well. But those two seem to work the best for me.
