My weed plant is starting to look worrying

I’m not sure exactly how old it is, but it is at least 3 months in and 3 feet tall, I grow it outside. A few days ago I needed to get rid of some spider mites and suddenly the center leaves have started to change. Previously they had some whiteish dots from the mentioned spider mites and now they are becoming yellow from the outside in along with some dark dots in the center.

if there is anything else I should mention to help clear this up please ask. This is my first time growing and I’m doing this out of enjoyment of growing rather then selling/smoking

What have you used to try and tackle the bug problem?

While waiting for it to arrive I used a small amount of bleach and hot water. When it arrived I used some seven insect killer concentrate and I also used some been oil in between both

What like washed the plant?

Or did you just apply the bleech to the affected area im by far no expert but i wouldnt apply bleech to my garden that's for sure unless i was deep cleaning a empty tent lol... Just my opinion theres lots if organic options and lines to go down, im sure a more experienced grower will drop in soon.

I used a spray bottle with hot water for both the seven and bleach and the spray bottle the neem oil came in. I spend probably a good 20 minutes going under the plant to make sure I didn’t miss a spot. It also seems to have worked reasonable well as the new leaves that are still growing don’t have any spots on them. I’m still using the neem oil once in a while just in the event I missed some

What was the ratio of bleech to water?

I got the bleach thing from https://apotforpot.com/blogs/growing/spider-mites/#spider-mites_A3
A but under half way down the page it is home solutions

1 Tablespoon to the gallon

If her new growth is still healthy and loving life happy days, back off the bleech like for good! continue with the neem oil if you haven't fixed problem. Lots of information regarding this on here bud good luck.

I think it is still ok as it is growing up and out still but I’m worried as there are a dozen leaves scattered throughout the plant yellowing.

Is the 4th picture curent state?

Ah. As I’m currently looking at it. It may also be nutrient burn as the yellowing ones all have completely brown tips.

All the pictures are current as of a few minutes ago

Whats your watering/feeding info?

I tend to give 1-1.5 gallons of water that have had time to sit in the sun to balance the ph a bit (using tap water in apartment) every 2-2.5 days resaulting in some runoff from the container it’s in. And I give it a keurig cup of coffee grounds every week. Not sure exactly how much used grounds they are.

When you say to balance the ph, your checking it right? Whats she growing in whats your medium?

I don’t actually have anything to test the ph. (When I get the chance that is going to be the next purchase) but up till now it had been working so I had assumed (I so hope that the water isn’t a problem)

I am unsure of the exact medium as I was given the plant by a family member but I assume it’s some form of easy to get soil as he made the cuttings on a whim (can’t even ask as he is in jail) but along with the soil there is an inch or so of sand on top as at one point we had fungus gnats

Id definitely invest into a pH pen or somesort of reader budget depending, just back off the bleech matey dont use again and choose a feeding method and line to go down.

That’s what I’m assuming at this point; either the PH or over feeding. I already stopped the bleach after the stuff came in. Thanks for the potential help/insight even if it was mostly bouncing ideas/concerns off everyone here.
