Days from Harvest!!! Is this a bug problem or something else?

I'm pretty sure I'm a couple days away from harvesting but just noticed these spots on some of the upper leaves. I had a PH problem the past couple weeks due to a bad probe on my meter. A lot of the leaves curled into a claw. Im doing DWC with just PH'd water for the last few days. 400w HPS constant airflow in the room with an aircooled hood. Does this look like a mite problem to you? I dont see any other signs. The trichomes on the upper part of the plant look almost all milky but the lower parts are still 50/50 clear/white. Should I just chop the top half first and let the bottom buds get more light?

I would chop the top and let the rest of the plant ripen, it's not mites, if it gets worse in the next few days chop them.

thanks. any idea what the problem is? I hate harvesting without knowing what went wrong. I feel like my yield has suffered greatly from it

Looks like it could be a Boron deficiency.

well shit, should i try and fix the Boron issue and delay harvest? I've been using ph'd RO water for the past few days. I just wish the buds filled out more

you usually can't make up a deficiency that far into the game. go for a new strain or nutes next run.

No look under your leaves> its white bugs sucking your leaves...

could be your usual cal/mag def. just lookin weird on this strain?

NO... IM TELLING YOU. ITS BUGS THAT LIVE UNDER YOUR LEAVES. IT MAKES THE TOPS LOOK LIKE CHEESECLOTH..LITTLE SEETHRU.. their WHITE BUGS.

Brother, any chance that you have light leaks? They are not developing right. I'm not saying there is not something else going on as well, but that salad like look on the leafs is to me a sure sign of some re-veging/ back and forth, happening there. You ever stick your head into your grow space when the lights are off in order to make sure there are no light leaks?

I dont see any bugs under the leaves. What white bugs are you talking about?

I actually did just discover a small light leak. But I didnt think it was that big of a deal since my lights go off at sundown and the leak was coming from the window. But I fixed it right away. Lesson learned I suppose. Major bummer though. It could be cal/mag as well. But how do I flush for 7-10 days and avoid getting a nute deficiency?

The deficiency started a few weeks ago and now that your flushing it has made it worse. If your flushing than your close to chopping so avoide adding anything at this point. Even if you did add Cal-mag that may not resolve the issue for sure. What has happened is the flush has removed most of the nitrogen from the plant and now some of the other elements are locked up and can't move without Nitrogen present. So thyings like Magnesium are there but locked. In the future I would recomend you flush with a soloution of 20% nutrients, that will get everything out and not starve your plants for the last two weeks.

My advise is keep going the way you were and you'll be cutting down soon so don't bother doing anything unless it's the 20% nutrients.

thanks. adding 20% nutes now wont affect the taste? not sure how i got this def. since i was running my ppm pretty high before flushing. I use dutch master gold flower a&b and a little calmag

10%+ nutes, or whatever.. the idea is to keep em on a mini diet of some food towards the end so they don't freeze up from no food. mostly what will help u now is that some salts/fert will assist you in actually flushing the remaining fert. some kinda chemistry molecular bond thing. just straight h20 at the end to flush is a misconception.

i think he was talking about aphids ?? maybe
