Weird Leaf Texture and look

Ok, first post here for plant probs - Hope I remember everything.

Grown in soil
Ph 6.5 - 7 ish
water when almost dry
Nutes = Very light (three table spoons per gallon) "Botanicare" 2-0-3 . . . .. . . . . Triflex base every third watering
18-6 light with 6 27w CFL's
Temps a little high at around 81 (best I can do for now)
Humidity around 41%

Soil =
Hyponex with no added nutes,
30% perlite,
20% Vermiculite,
10% sand,
10% Peat moss

OK . . . . . .

1. Pics of small plant = Leaves that seem to have a weird texture and kindof an ashen look to them and a little curling of the leaf edges or canoeing.

2. Pics of larger plant = Little yellow spots and yellowing in general of mid plant leaves. Also sortof the look like the reference guide pics showing thripe damage.

As far as I know I haven't seen any bugs of any type and the lighter type spots (Hard to see) don't seem to rub off like powdery mold.

CONFUSED - not just stoned!

Any help will be appreciated. Muchas grassyest!

dude...your leaves are heat stressed....get some new nutes...and don't feed every time you water...fix your heat issue though and get yourself some more light. and don't start two threads cause you dont get a response in ten minutes...sometimes it will take 11 minutes for me to respond to you. either way good luck bro...you are doin well with the cfls you have. :blsmoke:

Thanks man - got a little fiesty there - sorry!

So is 81 degrees too much? And what is an optimal interval for feeding? (Rule of thumb or something)

I appreciate any help and will try and watch myself a little closer~

my growroom stays at about 72 to 80.....and feed them every other time you water...maybe every third time...just have to listen to your plants....and get some nutes that are more like 3-3-3 or something similar :blsmoke:

and don't sweat it...hope the day gets better

The last pic sure looks like a calcium defiency To fix a calcium deficiency you can treat by foliar feeding with one teaspoon of dolomite lime or Garden lime per quart of water, Or Any Chemical/Organic nutrients that have Calcium in them will fix a Calcium deficiency. (Only mixing at ½ strength when using chemical nutrients or it will cause nutrient burn

I only water at about 1/4 strength every 4th water. I'm 1 month 2 weeks in veg, about to make the switch to flower. If anything a couple plants have gotten too much! lol, just 2 pics of the garden now. I guess when you grow indoors you always have to water when you turn the lights off, I burned some leaves cause I didn't know that. In my several years of outdoor, mother nature has been more forgiving.
