These are the first two leaves that came about right? The overall health of the plant looks good and it doesn't look like there are any spots on the new growth, so I would wait and see what happens. ( IMO)

I would try to bring it down just a notch for now as I believe mj likes a higher humidity when vegin. Maybe start lookin for a way to bring it down for flowering. Unless someone of a higher knowledge has any advice, I wouldn't worry unless the problem spreads or shows up on new growth. The FFOF should keep them fed for a while though.

Help! the little spots have gotten bigger and now those 2 bottom leaves are turning yellow. Definitly doesn't look natural, never seen a plant with spots like this, they almost look like an orange mold or something spreading on the leaf. i did spray her once with a neem solution a few days ago. what can i do?!

my tap water is exactly at 7.4. You can use lemon juice (4-6 drops per quart) to safely get your pH to about 6.7-6.8. i also like to grab my water from a source where the chlorine is filtered out of it or let it sit from 12-24 hours as to let it evaporate out.

sounds about right to me the plant will kill off the botton leaves to help the new shoots.drop your ph a bit this will help your girl to get the nuets she needs. tho im also new to this just i had the same problem hope this helps

hm, i wouldnt worry to much. i think its not a big problem, because its quite normal if the bottom leaves die. sometimes sooner, sometimes later. i quess the experienced growers dont have that kind of problems. you will eventualy find a perfect setup for your girls and you wont have that kind of problems, im growing for about two years and my bottom leaves always die, like in your case. my advice would be, to leave this leafes and not to cut them, because if you will cut them away, the next pair of leaves will start getting brown and eventualy die. anyways a lot of growers at the start of the flowering period cut away bottom leafes to bring more airflow,...

Your plant is now putting her attention towards the top (which looks healthy). At some point and time your plant incurred a bit of stress that it filtered onto that leaf. I wouldn't worry about it.

Those pics look very similar to the ones in the Grow Bible as being (P) Phosphorus Deficient.
"A lack of (P) causes stunted growth and smaller leaves...blotches often appear...the leaf tips turn dark and curl downward... severely affected leaves develop large yellow-blackish blotches... the leaves later become yellow/bronze shrivel, contort and fall off"

I dunno for sure- but that kinda sounds/looks like what you have... maybe?
