Calcium def?

Most likely there's no Ca in your water...I would check to see if you're imparting any with the seaweed or through your soil. With that being said, I would say no to it being a Ca issue...but what it is, I couldn't say. I would simply carry on and monitor them. If you're using a plastic grow bag I would ensure you have adequate drainage; my experience with them, was hindered by them holding too much H2O. Good luck friend.

I think this is a slight calcium deficiency but would like someone else to confirm, started about a week ago. Its in a 1gal growbag with straight up FFOF soil, then going to transplant into amended soil to finish. No nutes going all organic.
the little brown spots ..not the leaf tip...could be a cal deficiency.
R/o water add 1-2ml of cal/mag per gal. back to it.

what microbe product are you using with that organic dirt.

The other spots I could guess but its more than likely because you havent fed it anything in that crappy ffof crap which is probably lacking any decent form of a microbe population.

Is that powdery mildew or something dried up on the leaf?

If using RO you definitely need to add calcium. Calmag would be in order or perhaps just use tap water in the meanwhile. No clue what the seaweed brings to the party.

Humidity or dense foliage issue? find the cause?
Not entirely sure to be honest, temps and rh were stable , foliage may have been a little on the dense side.

I Never had any other issues in the garden once I chopped that one girl with the rust fungus on it.

With rust fungus we are dealing with something thats like powdery mildew. The spores are easily spread and the grower themselves is often the vector (bring it in on equipment, clothing and person). Ample spore exposure, suitable environmental conditions for growth combined with little resistance to mold / mildew will generally result in fungus growth. There are several different species that cause a rusty looking growth.

Ya I blame it on me, I was guilty of visiting that tent straight from work numerous times, I probably brought something into the garden.

Since then I've tried being real diligent in keeping things clean before I do anything in the garden lol

Most of the time haha

If I have been outside doing shit I always shower and change before going into my grow. Way too much to lose. TBH I pay people to do my yard work and rarely go outside except to work on my Corvettes and to go camping and do recreational stuff.

About 6 years ago, I consulted for a commercial grow here in Colorado. They kept getting mites. I told them they had to be clean and gave them all the details. They had a dude that was all poor and he would come in and "volunteer" his work watering plants and doing basic stuff like that in trade for a buzz. Well one day I heard him talking about how he had just come from running a weed eater at the owners house! Dude was covered in clippings and bugs. No wonder they always had mites. lol They also grew out a shit ton of bag seeds the owner had saved for years before moving to colorado to start the grow. Well I told them, bag seeds came from hermies and not to grow them. Sure as shit, they had a lot of bananas and totally pollinated rooms. They grew for about 18 months before the state shut them down, never got a single harvest that went to market. The owner wasn't being compliant on the rules for having to supply a certain percentage of their shelved product from their own licensed grow plus there were unpaid taxes to the county.

One time their free helper even blocked open a door that had an auto closer on it for a reason, the flowering room lights went out and the veg room lights were blaring in for a few hours. Fucked that run off with more bananas. They were actually having a bug free run from quality clones, that was their last run.
