Its multible thing! The rust spots are cal/mag and the yellowing is low nitrogen.
could be feeding to light causing the def or a ph lock up causing the deff.the ffof
has a bunch of stuff in it to provide food for about a month! After that theres no
food.

On another note if you could get a digital ph meter and test that run off you might
find its acidic and you need to add dolomite lime

I've never heard of a Calcium deficiency when using tap water and nutes and teas. Good soil to start with, and all of those Veg and Bloom nutes, and teas, too, and so you treated something that looks like a deficiency by adding more nutes. I thought of light/heat burn, too, but with your nute regimen, I would have to say overferting. Just cut back on the nutes, and use the tea less frequently, and you should see some improvement in the new growth.

Aside from the cal mag supplements, they went ten days with no nutes after a flush, and things got worse. Far as the compost tea, it brewed from cubes that most of the local hydro shops use...Vermi T. They tell me you can't overdo it. We started using it after the leaf problems became more pronounced. The overall look and vigor of the plant has improved, it doesn't seem like the problem is affected one way or the other.

If cal mag is involved, you are right, it should be in the tap water, soil and nutes, so may well be a lockout of some kind

Don't understand why everyone is leaning to Cal mag def when its not the case from looking at them pictures looks to me more of phos deficiency to the op invest in a decent ph tester and purchase ph up and ph down when making food check ph after everything is mixed keeping 6.5 - 7.0 ph
plants are hungry period FEED them lol :clap:

I have and use ph up and down, and have a ph water kit and adjust whenever I feed.. Far as nutes, I'm told I'm feeding them too much, and then told not enough.

Rootbound? Possible but not likely, we've used ten gallons before and worst case, bottom leaves yellow near the end of flowering

Another thought occurred to me. Thay were put out mid May and within a week or so starts budding. Early in June they stopped, and the overall growth slowed way down, and they popped out single blade leaves as they went back into reveg. I thought by mid may the days were long enough, apparently I was wrong.

In the past few days they are having a major growth spurt, with three bladed leaves and starting five ones. It's like they took a month off from growing and are just now fully kicking back into veg.. I wonder if, even though feeding was minimal, it od'ed the plants on nutes since they weren't growing much and were essentially dormant?
