So I’ve been trying to find out what was wrong with my plants , this lady in particular as I saw a slight lightening on some of the older leaves.
But then I also noticed a hole in one of the leaves which kinda worries me , I was thinking it was a calmag deficiency but could it be bugs?

current stats are:
Coco professional plus medium
Ionic grow 50% strength
Rhizotonic 50% strength
Terra leaves 15 ml per 10 litre
Started calmag 10ml per 10 litre
Ph 5.8
Temperature 29 degrees c
Humidity 75%
Last fed 24 hours ago
Ppm meter doesn’t seem to work as with current feed combo it doesn’t say higher than 400ppm

Thanks guys

Not sure, but your humidity is dangerously high. Have you checked under leaves for bugs, with a scope of some kind?

Your humidity is too high. and your temps are a bit high try and lower it to about 26 - 27c and try and lower your humidity to about 60%

Edit: And yeah, you could have slugs or something eating away at your leaves

When you say " Started calmag 10ml per 10 litre"....what does that mean? You just started this week, last week, last month? Be specific.

Yes I understand that the damage is done to the leaves and they are not going to fix the hole that’s there, will the stable colour come back or will they stay like that?
would you suggest removing affected leaves or just leave her b?

Once the leaves change color they'll stay that way. I wouldn't bother removing them at this point, let the plant use them up a little more before removing.

Just watch the newer growth to see you've improved the issue.

I’ve just flushed them with florakleen so will start feeding them again in 24-48 hours with their feed plus calmag.

The FloraKleen isn't going to harm your plants but what's the logic of flushing with basically sugar water? Why not water normally with a balanced properly pH'd nutrient solution? If you feed correctly in coco you won't have any issues.

In all honesty I don’t know. I’m still trying to learn and understand how to grow.
Maybe not I can basically reset and start feeding them the right amounts of nutrients and hopefully no new problems will arise
