White widow strain, 16 days, nursery bag half sohum what cannabis craves, half black gold seedling mix. Plants looking blotchy and starting to have some brown spots. Im new-ish to growing bud so i know a little but not everything im assuming its some kind of deficiency maybe the blotchy leaves is because the nutrients in the soil is running out? What i do know is that its not bugs. Last time i asked on here some members had me spraying my plants and trying to convince me there was spider mites. I looked with a microscope - no bugs for the record.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

Maybe a mag deficiency? I have 3 plants under led for first time as I usually grow under hps. My plants after a week shown calcium def and looked slightly off so I upped the calmag and they are fine now a real nice color and growth rate back on track

There should still be plenty of nutrients in your soil.

What kind of water are you using?

What's your watering habits like? How would you describe the moisture retention in the soil?

So far ive just been spraying the top part of the soil. The plant in question is about a week ahead of the others so ive been spraying them. I waterd the plant im asking about today for the 1st time from a watering can, not over waterd but just about before it started coming out the bottom.

Ive been spraying the tops of the soil on the seedlings when it gets dry the soil has decent drainage idk if your familiar with "sohum what cannabis craves " soil ? Ive been ph my water to 6.4- 6.5

Ah. Yeah I'd be willing to bet that your watering habits are causing the problem here. Inconsistent watering can cause what appears to be deficiencies but really it's because the plant can't consume nutrients from dry soil. Good that you started watering it instead of spraying it.
