rust spots? what the hell is it?PICS

not sure what this is. cant diagnose it with anything Ive been finding with my research. other then a little bug damage from leaving the door open they are really healthy but these spots showing up worries me. i dont want it to spread. it started on a blackberry i was growing, the tip of the leaf turned to paper.. it wasnt nute burn or heat. it wasnt dark brown it was just absent of green. i wasnt too concerned about it because i hear blackberry can be finicky and the rest were fine, but now its on my sour D.:wall:

ph is6.5
soil is organic roots (the 'coolest' my indoor garden store had in terms of nutes)
water is off a well 275ft down? sometimes it can be a bit minerally.. like has a taste almost. not ppm reader yet :/ but its not hard water
nutes a GH floranova grow and superthrive for anti shock treatments

i hope somebody can tell me what this before its too late:shock:

stop spraying your leaves.

water goes in the dirt. on your leaves it drowns the areas where water stands for more than a few minutes

reduce you humidity if you can, and turn up the recirculation fan so leaves dont stay in contact for prolonged periods
 
really? I have a lot of fans. 3 that rotate back and forth on them blowing them around. theyre only on med, the high setting is a little intense for them at the moment. the stocks are nice and strong but theyre only a foot tall so it really rattles them. I didnt think spraying the leaves could be bad.. :/ but i guess that makes sense, it does look like water sploches though. no more of that then!

as long as your leaves are rustling your plants will be fine. you dont gotta tornado them.

if leaves stack together and stay that way they sweat all over each other, like fat people spooning, and shit gets nasty as fuck real fast. keep them leaves rustling
 
hahahaha nice analogy.

i have fans oscillating at a down ward angle on them so they get brushed back and forth quite frequently. should i have them stationary and make them 'dance'?

nah as long as the leaves are rustling youre doin great, but constant wind in one direction will make your plants lean over
