I think I have spider mites, how can I solve this?

burns tend to happen to the tips, and then work inwards, the nitrogen 'claw' is the most famous deficiencies tend to work from the bottom of the plant and larger leaves
but deficiencies can arise in many ways, missing/unbalanced nutrition in soil, water PH isn't quite right, odd imbalances, ...

Get a magnifying glass and look under a few leaves that have the little spots on the tops.
An ounce of prevention is way better if you have time and resources. You will probably end up doing it anyway
but under stress and while your plants are getting sucked dry.

that's interesting, see many singing their praises, i'm wary on anything that gives off some kind of gas that fills a room to the point it will kill bugs
which doesn't sound too healthy

That soil does have nuets in it. Not sure if any is time release or not. If it is overwatering could
be the problem. You mentioned more experienced growers have you shown them the plants yet?

nah havent had the opportunity yet. some parts of the leaf are lighter in colour compared to the rest and others are crispy and brown. Could this actually be overwatering?

What is your water regimine? I`m not saying overwatering as in water being the problem.
I`m saying overwatering a time released nutrient like little balls of nitrogen will overfeed the plant
and burn it to a crisp. Maybe your cooking it with light also

Consulted a few of my friends regarding the issue and was told it looked like it had been scorched where it was too close to the light with we leaves.

Moved it a couple of inches lower and I am closely monitoring and inspecting the leaves daily to see if this was indeed the problem.
