This is my first indoor grow and I have made a few mistakes at the beginning of this process. Which I am sure every one does starting out. I have 3 auto flowers in a tent and a 1000 watt King Led light. I am using fox farms ocean soil in 3gl smart pots. At the beginning I over watered and stunned the growth very bad but they came out of it. I am now at the end of week nine of the process and out of no where last week my plants started to get a lot of brown spots and leaves started changing color. I am using RO water and I was thinking that I needed more cal mag so I started adding it to just watering. I was just using it once a week with the Nutrients I was feeding. I am at a point I can’t read or look at anything and understanding if that is my problem. Any help is greatly appreciated. I use to give them water every other day and it would be dry when it came time to water again. But it is now day three and 2 inches down still has moisture so I don’t want to water again.

If you ask me i would ditch the autos next run so that way whatever you do to the plant you can pretty much bounce back as long as u veg longer with autos you dont have that option

You may have rotted out some of your roots in the beginning by overwatering, or not enough airflow. Leaf septoria is a fungus that can be introduced when certain conditions are met & cause havoc on your plants. Personally I would not water for now, increase air flow, & mist with a fungicide which you can get at Walmart, or Meier, or A Kmart, mist only the leaves & top layer of soil then cross your fingers & keep an eye on how or if she pulls through. The coolest part of these plants is they will Do almost anything to survive in the worst conditions you could imagine all you can do is give her a hand, she will do the rest.

She is so thick, it’s a shame to see her that way. But hopefully your able to pull her through. Best of luck

Do you get the fungus from over watering at the beginning? Since they are so short do I cut the leaves that are damaged off? I have two fans in there going 24/7? I moved the lights up because I felt they were two close which I could be over doing it with the lights ?
