White Fly infection the clue is in the random spots (of gold) ..lol
I doubt it’s whitefly larva as it’s not under the leaf and looks nothing like the eggs that white flys leave and in Alaska we don’t generally get pests other than your regular fruit flies and such.

No. He's not saying that the gold flakes are bugs. He's saying the marks are the result of the damage the bugs are doing.

I would need to see more pictures and understand more about the growing conditions.

Well both areas have been the same size for at least a week it’s only on two plants and it’s not damage to the leaves as it can be flicked or wiped of very easy and the leaves look fine the plants are very healthy I have no bugs in my grow room

As in this picture it’s gold it’s not yellow from being attacked by bugs the leaves have no physical damage

Hmmmmm...That's a new one on me! If it's not some kind of plant infestation, then it must be something physically falling down on the plants from above...right? Could there be some kind of gold insulating foil from a light or something?

Turns out all those prayers Todd Hoffman made came true.. It actually rained gold.

Might be the sap being (I forget the term) pushed thru the leaves. I've had it happen,it just isn't gold when it dries.

That’s what I was thinking but its clean above it nothing I can see is falling down I talked with my soil maker and he said his soil could have Au in it and the plants are up taking and it’s being deposited on the fan leaves.
