OK since no one is posting on my page and just looking let me hit you guys with a real problem im having. I got back from work today 11:15 eastern time and my five day old plant has started to grow yellow spots on it, they are light but they are coming. when i came home for break at 5:50ish to check on it it was doing perfectly fine. but five hours later and this spots are coming in. I will upload pictures tomorrow morning cause i know the spots will probably be worse. so please help me i dont know what to do this is my first grow.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!

Let's see some pictures. Might be over-watering. What kind of water are you using? What's you Temp/RH?

Have you sprayed the plant with anything?
Have you added any food/fertilizer(I hope not)

Anything else you've changed in the last few days?

nope havent sprayed with anything but water. and nope no fertilizers or food, i wouldnt even know what to add anyways.

last night round 12ish while i was sleeping i woke up cause i thought it could be cause i havent given it a good watering yet. like not enough to get to all the roots that have grown down, ive just been spraying the top of the soil making it moist.Could that be the problem, not enough water??

if it is i watered it the same time i woke up last night, i used tap water and i poured till water came dripping out the bottom. now if that was the issue, how would i know it worked and fixed my plant? when would the spots go away cause i woke up at 7:13 just checked the plant a littke bit ago its 7:35 right now and they are still there and a little more visable

what funny is i work at a huge Home Improvement store in the Outside lawn and garden area, not going to say which one, and all i do is work with plans but i cant seem to keep my own plants healthy....

quick questions would pool ph up and down be ok to use in water for my plants? and if not what and where can i get some cause at my store we dont carry plant ph up or down its all fertilizers that will bring it up or down but i dont want to add any.

Your in soil dont get crazy about ph levels. Hard to screw up soil that fast. Do you have a way to test your ph levels? Find a hydro shop. General Hydroponics is the brand I use. You need some base nutrients. What do plan to feed them. Are you down to one plant?

ha thats funny i just got back from a couple of stores and i bought API ph up and down for aquariums and a ph 600 (ph reader), but the reader if for water not for soil but i have something at my work im going to pick up at break that test soil ph level but im going to test the level of ph of the water that i have been using and go off of that. whats the ideal ph level cause i hear some people say 7 and others say 5.8 and others saying between 6 ND 6.8

oh yeah i just took some readings and my tap water comes to 9.4 WTF!!! i thought tap water was like neutral and good to use and my other water source comes to 8.6 so i definitly need to bring in down..

but i watered it last night what should i do wait for it to dry that could take a couple days and i feel like it would really hurt my plant. could i possible repot it?

IDK what to do HELP!!!!!

maybe im freaking out over nothing cause i think this reading thing is wrong cause that 9.4 and that 8.6 now read at 7.1 and 6.4 which is good so it cant be the ph right? what is giving my plants these spots then maybe it was not enough water but now it looks worse than what it did earlier and alright elenor but ill have to test the ph of the soil first before i do that just incase its not the ph.....

But then what is causeing these spots and how can i fix it?

Ok so here are some updates on the yellow spots tried to get closer so you can see the spots more. so if anyone knows what they are please tell me, i dont think its the ph level.
