Spots on leaves.

As you can see the spots are paler, not white or yellow, imo. Don't know what this is. Anybody familiar? Dwc grow with Flora series pH has been no higher than 6.3. plant seems to wilt just before lights out and has stayed that way with some clawing of leaf tips. Ppm 5-600. Plant is 10 in tall approximately. Solution temps were 67 but from 64-74

Also, I have mixed the pool shock according to the instructions and measured it for the 2.5 gallons of water in there. Got 2 pumps with new air stones providing O2. Just ordered some peroxide to try since I'm thinking maybe this plant doesn't care for the chlorine. But I had to do something. Used the 3% drug store stuff for a couple days with no nutrients and it seemed to help but read that the stabilizers in that product are not good.

Of course not. This plant pretty consistently wilts progressively more towards the end of the light cycle every day. Then when lights go on it perks up again. WTH? Roots aren't looking white any more, getting browner with some gray spots. I think I might pull it out and put it in peroxide in a separate bucket. Can't stand not having a solution to this mystery

Haven't seen any bugs yet, still. Oh. And the water temp is inaccurate. Hasn't gone over 70 yet.

Is this the same plant I helped you with before? The only problem I see is your solution temps..
Should be below 68f.. Maybe check out a cooler..

Plant leaves naturally droop just before lights out. If you check right before the lights go back on, they are usually already standing back up in anticipation.

Thanks guys, yes the temps are staying cool and the leaves have been more than a little droopy a couple of times. The plant was quite wilted. I just don't know what the hell it is. With different temps for solution and environment, it doesn't seem to matter. Same with pH. Plant just crashes. It looks like it is being over or under watered. But the level is good and I have two pumps to two separate air stones so wtf? I was keeping the water warmer actually with a seed mat thinking it was getting too cold but that didn't seem to help either so turned it off.

Yes @HydoDan this is the same

Was telling @HydoDan that it's the same plant that I had trouble with. It is under a 100 watt spider farmer right now. With dimming.

No, this plant has not had a drop of any liquid on it since the day it was born. Well, except for an occasion when the fan wasn't on it and overlapping leaves gathered water between them. Two leaves on two occasions approx.. When I look at it under the magnifier I see the stomas with water in them except for the areas of concern, and I don't have the vocabulary to describe what I see. Will do my best to get a photo after work tonight. I have a hunch @StonedGardener , that a fungus may be the culprit, as you have surmised. My rh has not been under 40% and is usually 50 - 60. Wich shouldn't be a problem, but given my lights off temp can be low 50's at times.....yeah. Having some difficulty finding a trustworthy heating source that will heat such a small area without getting too hot.
