***UPDATED on page 2 with pics***

I don't know if its the measles, but it certainly is concerning me. This was just noticed this morning. I'm pretty observant, so these have not been here long. Brown spots, ugly little boogers, and right where the leaves have most of their strength.

Its just on the lower first set of leaves currently.

What could they be??! Only two of my seedlings are showing these issues, I would imagine more to come though.

Thanks guys, really appreciate any advice/help you can give!

Don't look too bad. You should see mine. I've got the transplant shock/over nute thing going on right now.

What are you feeding?

They just started some 1-1-1 organics a few days ago (Green Thrive Alive B-1) I've been doing some minor foliar feeding as well with the stuff. (I'll quit foliar feeding for now.)

Other than that, they have been on ph balanced water. They'll get put on the grow big in another week or so.

I have one more spot starting on another lower leaf, so I'm concerned!

I just noticed that these spots are top and bottom in the same area (like someone burned a hole through the leaf!)

Extreme Weirdness!

I don't see any mites at all. Its only on 2 of 9 plants, only lower leaves. Like a burn from a magnifying glass (water droplet burns?) Though I know that they are not lighting burn marks, so I'm pretty clueless at this point.

Marks are pointed out with the red arrows in the pic. I was thinking maybe fungus? I'll get some CLOSE ups of the bottom and top of the same leaf, and post those up to see if they help. Plants are only about 15 days old.

Fungus disease plague death??!! Help! thanks

Thanks for that link. I dug through that info, and it looks like a possible PH problem. (pot/mag lockout)

Which is absolutely weird, my soil runoff is at 6.5 dead on, and my water is typically ph 6.1 to 6.3...
Wish i could help you on your problem but i cant, but damn man, looking good compared to some of the plants ive seen that were 15 days old... Hope mine are that nice looking when it comes to 15 days!!! :hump:

Nice, you are using FF as well. I had pretty good success with their whole line thus far...just go easy at first. Especially with the Grow and Tiger Bloom if you are using those. Other than that I wouldn't worry about 2-3 spots. It's when whole leaves start to turn that you should be concerned...I am not sure the foliar feeding is your problem though so if it's been keeping them nice then keep it up.

Update this morning...

Here is what our problem has evolved into. I have an odd feeling that this is something BAD, and I'm not willing to just start throwing my hands up in the air and drown the plants in chems or water :)

Anyone? Its starting to get a little scary. Still on the lower leaves...

I just flushed the hell out of the two plants that are showing the chlor blanching on the leaves. I think its PH burn (5.4-5.9) as the babies roots may be getting into some soil that has some nitro pockets or soil that was washed with 5.3ph water a week ago. I'm going to raise the lights a bit as well, and give EVERYONE a couple foliar feedings. Basically I'm just going to back off from the whole "GROW HUGE NOW, HERES LOTS OF LIGHT AND NUTS AND WATER AND HAIR METAL AND A 10000000 BILLION WATT FAN!!" and see what happens :)

My soil is Gardner and Bloome blue ribbon blend. Spendy crap, but AWESOME soil. I'll update here when we get a whats what. The plants that were showing these symptoms were ready for a watering anyhoo...

Soil sounds good, but looks dense. Did you amend with perlite? Something to consider next time or if you transplant....
