whole plant pic please

miracle grow soil is a big no no.... id run from MG soil next time..!

just looking at the leaf pics it looks heavily fertilized... but you said your not fertilizing or just recently for the first time so that's weird

ph 6.2 is a little low but really not the end of the world and doesn't explain your issues... you might consider top dressing with a couple ounces of dolomite (pot size depending) and over a few weeks itll come up (above 6.5 to 7.0)

what size pot and how much water volume do you add when you water..how much water are you putting in the pot?

As stated above 2 gallon pots watering every 5-6 days 72 ounces water only. Room is in dark cycle now forgot to do so today, will try again tomorrow.

ah ya you did clearly state that info lol
go easy...im only trying to help.. and where all pot head here lol

im not sure how much help I can be but I will speak openly and maybe something will ring a bell thru dialog ... if its water only and no fertilizers and the leaves are that dark green I have to guess the soil might be your issue
does that soil have the time released nutes in it? does it say organic by chance? does it say feeds for X amount of time on the bag?

if I had to take a total guess as to where I might start if it was me... and this is just me taking a shot in the dark

I might consider the soil to be heavy on N fertilizer... if its time released food youll be hard pressed trying to flush.. but id like to see my leaves not as dark green as those

the speckles could be (as in might) calcium deficiency if they starting from the bottom and working its way up... if its on the tops first it could be micro nute related or ph issues

ive not seen a whole plant pic so I don't know how wide spread the issue is..if its a few leaves id ignore it... if its all over and getting worse I might try flushing

if (IF) I happened to guess right the issue is how do you flush out the N and add calcium... since most calcium sources of fertilizer come from calcium nitrate

theres a lot of speculation in this paragraph, but im trying... so don't hold my feet to the fire

whole plant pics would help a lot

No issue's dude, you have no idea how much I appreciate your impute.
Missed my window of opportunity to get photo today as during the week I work while lights are on. Yep 13 hr shifts blow.
If it's nute related that's fantastic news... was afraid I had bugs and could not see them. Eyes ain't what they used to be.
Will get photo, Thank you again for your time.

Mg soil does have slow release nutes. Depending on which mg bag, anywhere from 3-9+months. The blueish organic bag is the best mg soil

Ive seen mg soil produce dank. Always funny when theres random small uber burnt areas of the plant from the little nute balls in the soil bursting and overfeed lol.

still cant rule out insects, but on the leaf pic I don't see anything to make me think its bugs
