I had 2 flies, but they were removed. I have looked at the leaves with a 30x microscope, it looks to be a fungus or nute burn. It can't be scraped off, it looks like its "in" the leaf.

Black spot is a fungus. I battle it every year on my roses. It doesn't look like black spot to me though.

Well, after cutting about 8 leaves off, I have singled it out to ONE branch on the very bottom. Do you think it will make my girl go hermie if I chop that branch off w/ it only being 8 days in FLOWERING?:shock:

Some people take clones in early flowering. You never know what's gonna stress your plant too much though. It's about choosing the lesser of 2 evils know what I mean?

Are you sure you can't get the black spots off? I recently discovered I had thrips, after hearing that the little black spots on my leaves were the POOP!! Is there shiny, silvery streaking on the leaves too? Couldn't quite tell from the pics. Thrips are pretty damn small, but you CAN see them with the naked eye (looks like miniature rice) and under a scope you can see em crawling around....they live on the tops AND under the leaves, can be black, brown, or whitish. I got predatory nematodes for the soil and ladybugs to eat the ones on the leaves....one week later, they have definitely diminished but still aren't gone! Neem oil or essential oil is good too.....good luck!

Yea, i'm sure it wont come off. I have some leaves that have dried and its actually "in the leaf" rather than sitting on top the leaf.

No it doesnt look like black spot, it looks like something has laid eggs.

You're certain it's not insect feces? Kinda looks like it could be eggs from a drive by lay. IF it's not too wide-spread, I MIGHT cut away the bad spots? Good luck.

Well, after further examination of the leaves, I did find that some of the specks were able to be rubbed off. I also found a little pest on the underside of one of the leaves. (I dont know how I missed it the 1st time I looked at it. Its whats in the pic on this post.) A few days ago I was told that shultz Fungicide3 would do the trick.....It has a 7 day schedule.... I haven't began yet, I just wanted to make sure that the fungicide isnt going to contaminate the buds. Need some helpful advice.....
