Im new to the Hydroponics scene, this is my first hydro grow, im about 4 weeks into veg with this grape diamond and it started showing some issues about a week ago.
Everything's startes from the bottom and moved up. Also first signs started appearing 2 days after feed. Not sure if its pests, nute excess or deficiency?? There are orange spots on leaves with clawing starting from the bottom. A few black spots on top leaves not sure if they are turning brown or orange. Ive asked my friends that grow too they have no idea what's wrong with my plant either.
I use flora tripart nutes. Ive added cal mag twice since i noticed problems, ph is always in check. Do not measure ppm of res due to equipment malfunction.

In the third pic the leaves look stippled, if they are then that's spider mites.
Overall the plant looks a bit deficient in nitrogen, I see one yellowing leaf that's clawing a bit, but mites will do that to leaves. I'm thinking mites and low PPM.
Those orange spots might be from the PH. What do you mean PH is always in check? Are you getting below 5 or over 6? Below 5 iron and manganese become toxically available and over 6 iron can get locked out depending on chelation. You're growing blind without a PPM meter in hydro. A com-80 cost me $40 in Canada, it's almost 3 years old and it's spot on with my Bluelab
