What are these markings

So on my leaves there are lighter colored green lines. I know it isn’t lead miners but a deficiency? I was thinking K or Fe.

I think this is just genetics. Keep your lights according to producers manual. Looks like she begins to be young plant...

I put marks like this down to growing stress.

occasionally I get them on leaves and nothing ever comes of it.

so I put it down to a similar thing as stretch marks in human beings.

the only answer I’ve been able to conclude.

From my conclusion (and thank you for the responses again!) is they weren’t acclimated to my light yet. I am using it the way I should. It’s more than 48” away at full power now. Bigger girl is in week 3, the smaller one is in 2. But it only happened when I put the dimmer down and made it brighter. So I am going to acclimate them.

So I took my pH on the little one and 1/4 of the pot read 7 in the soil, the other 3/4 was 6.6. Hopefully not root rot.. but I’ll water with some cannazym next feed and will check pH tonight again in that spot.

How did you check your soil pH??? And I see them from seeds in 11L pots so you are predicted to have overwatering issues. Hope you did not saturated the whole pot? Do not need to feed for weeks. Also better to use only rhizotonic half dose until you start to see def.

Soil pH pen by bluelabs. I water with rhizotonic and cannazym every 3 days. I Feed by foliar sprayer and use dry amendments for nutes in 5gal pots. Recharge some feedings. 1/2 gallon for 2 plants and never use all of the water. I never water for run off and I also saturate then let it settle in before doing more spraying. It’s just weird that one pot is doing that and the other isn’t.

Just so you know my friend the pH had dropped to 6.6 in the area I was talking about. Thanks for all the advice / help
 
I read about those as I see them in all plants in the house and seems to be a kind of insect egg, when it gets too much i just cut the leave as that helps growing the plant a lot as long as theres enough other leaves to do the job. Maybe I was wrong, I always get things on my leaves and just cut them away when I notice there's enough leaves, and I don't usually see that one come back on the same plant :) I'm on my first harvest so can't generalize with my learnings.
