im not an expert or anything but it kinda looks like you got some water on the leaves and then the lights got magnified through the water droplets and burned her. hard to tell though, the pics are a little blurry.

Are those the only spots on the plant??

Kind of weird that some it is on the tip of a leaf, some in the middle of a leaf... That plus pic kinda make it hard to tell...

I'd have to lean towards the water droplet theory from previous poster...

Keep an eye on it, if anymore spots emerge.. take a better pic w/ some more light so we can see it better...

I have the same thing on a clone in veg. I gave it more nitrogen and b-52s and it seems to be coming back. I wonder if it's a cal/mag deficiency or something to do with the cold weather here lately though, subbing so I can see how the vets diagnose your girl.

i also think it looks like some kind of light burn.. i had a few leaves get too close to my lights when they shot up one night, and they look a lot like that.. better pix would help though

i have the exact same thing from water splashing up on the leaf when you water them....no biggie...now if it grows and spreads over a 2 day period, youll know you have some other issue. but im sure its burn

by foil paper, do you mean like aluminum foil? if so, i woud bet my money that is exactly what it is... they problem with that foil is that it causes hot spots, and may burn your plants, which is exactly what it looks like to me..
get rid of the foil, and if they aren't already, just slap some white paint up on the walls with either a flat white or semi gloss.. i just got done reading how semi gloss is like 75-80% reflective, and flat is like 80-85% reflective... that should definitely help you out a ton...

I'm pretty sure they're heat spots from you foil paper, try and get your foil as flat as posible, and it won't cause as many heat spots, or go get some mylar, you can use the really shiny Christmas paper

It's just a burn, either from nutes and HID/direct sun lighting, or simply a light burn. A fluorescent bulb can also do that if a leaf remains in contact for some time. It won't spread, but the leaf will continue to deteriorate. I have had these burns plenty of times as I was learning to grow. Blessings. :peace:
