I have 4 plants in a dwc tote... two plants are ICe, and two are widow skunks, there in the third week of flowering with noproblems whatsoever... Yesterday they were totally fine; when the lights came on today, the widow skunks were full of these yellow spots, everywhere...
The plants are in a 4' x 2' x 5' tent, I did add another plant thats in soil next to my affected widows... I looked for pest, didnt see any, could have missed them though... I do also have an ozone generator in the same room, could thise cause it??
Any help is appreciated, this is only my third grow.... Cou;d tthis be an environmental factor, a deficiency or a pest??? As soon as I saw thsi today, I drained the tote, added fresh water with florakleen from GH for a few hours, then drained and mixed a new batch of nutrients, which include BC boost, bc bloom, magical, sugardaddy, thrive alive red, awseome blossoms and a liitle liquid karma... ppms are at 1400, a little high probably, but plants have never shown signs of burn, ph is at 5.8.... Any help is appreciated, thanks fellas!!!

damn i'm in full bloom never touched 1400 but, i'd say calcium my self if and when i've had that problem remember dont try and remedy it over night just feed it give it a few days and see if it'll respond my experience the dots you have wont correct, but they wont get worse either....and it shouldn't get worse if you've corrected it

thanks for the reply brother.... my other two ice palnts dont show any deficiencies...the affected plants still look healthy and sprung.... the nutes I use never lack anything... weird... I did a florakleen flush in case if its salt buildup... well see, though... Ill post more pics...

heres another pic.. next to the top cola.. as you can see, the cola is hella fat for 3 and a half weeks!!! Very happy with its growth rate; now these spots have me concerned, not worried that it will kill my plants, just worried that the growth rate may be affected..

It could be a slight deficiency of magnesium, try to add 2 tablespoons of Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4, also called epsom salt) for every 10 Liters of water you use. This cannot hurt the plants, it might fix your problem. This often helps if you have a a lot of calcium in your water (over 200ppm is considered hard water)
And don't be affraid, epsom salt if difficult to overdose, but used in soil, I would flush every 3-4 weeks at least!

Hope this can help you..

Make sure you don't have bugs, check the bottoms of the leaves, the last few pics it looks clean, I would check for spider mites, but with that much brown they would be webbing up by now and be very visible.

Are you misting with the lights on? It could be light burn if the leaves are wet while the lights on. Other than the spots they look good, just make sure they don't get worse...Good luck JR

Hey thanks alot fellas!! I think its from the ozone generator and the cold temps when the lights go out... but it hasn't gotten any worse, and the plant is still vibrant... did a flush and nute change yesterday at full strength...... today the ppms climbed over 2000!! which it tends to do since they drink so much... but no sign of nutrient burn...
