Weird yellowing of leaves?

do a pick up test, next time you soak get a mental note of how heavy the pot is then when its light, water again. sometimes it's easy to fill an empty pot with dry soil until you get the feel for "light"

they tend to disappear and reappear , even 2 mites can turn to 1000 again. if they adapt to neem you may to have to switch to alcohol spray its more aggressive and kills on contact. but I'd try a more natural way first since the plants are small and neem serves as anti fungal aswell

Yeah I have atleast 4 more weeks of Veg before I will try and flip.

I figure at worst this will all be a good learning experience. I am starting from way behind, so if I can pull these off I will be way more confident going forward with healthier plants.
Now I just need to find a good clone source. Going forward I won’t be taking anything from buddies.

thank you for all of the advice.

Yeah these came straight for guys basement to car to my spare bedroom. But like I said these were some of the more pitiful little plants I have ever seen when I got them. Just I had never even thought about growing until now. So this is going to help me figure out problems. And has taught me bending ect. This is when I got them. They had a little yellowing already. And some spots. It has just spread since.

honestly he might have some small colonies this still happens in the industry aswell I can get rooted clones in my state but you have the be weary of the guy you get it from, there clever little fucks but cut their food supply and you win. neem leaves a bitter taste I try to wash it off abit with a small sprayer while still in veg after they die back and before flip
 
try to keep it on the leaf surfaces as much as you can it will stink but now that you got them they are microscopic and need to go if you plan growing in the future, id suggest starting from seeds aswell they are great for beginners and you can learn to clone your own and never need to buy anymore
 
also you will grow more robust plants if the mothers aren't in tip top shape the clones will be weak , seeds give you the advantage of having a clean slate

so is Neem oil something you use every so often as a preventative too? Or just if you have a problem?

yes they hate the taste and it keeps other things at bay just don't spray in flower and wash everything before flower although I really can never taste it ive just never sprayed on growing flowers

so just fill a sprayer with water and rinse them before flipping ? Got them all sprayed. I still think it’s odd though only the oldest and newest leaves have discoloring and its different on each plant.

they will find a home where ever the wind allows. strong fan also reduces their ability to move around the plant, once their population takes hold they will build webbing and basically respawn all over your babies

okay I will do that. It’s weird it’s just some leaves. The one dark leaf is the highest leaf on the plant with small yellow spots. The others that have the yellow discoloration is new growths about half way down the plant.

and I had checked with a magnifying glass and saw nothing on any leaves. No bugs, poop, ect.So was hoping it wasn’t that.

Definitely looks like mites in the second pic. Mites like to migrate to the top of the plant.
 
This is one of the first leaves that was on plant hadn’t seen it in a bit because was on back side of a back plant. Is this what they start to look like after a while of mites on them? Just random leaves?
