My two girls have shiny lines/dots not a insaine amount but it looks like its oily almost also I keep finding these tears in my leaves and at first thought maby it was from something I did but am noticing it on new developing leaves and it's starting to worry me and lastly I also have the brown/discoloration in a few fan leaves which I assume is from nute burn any help like I said would be awesome I'm a first time grower

The deformations are because it's fed very well and the tips are a slight nute burn.

You have it dialed in damn near perfect, if not perfect. i wouldn't change a thing.

Yea, when they are fed heavy/very well, leaves will sometimes deform or rip from fast paced growth. Think stretch marks in human terms.

I'm on an ipod. I keep trying to see what you are talking about but can't.
It is only visible on the purple picture my regular camera won't pick it up but its like on the picture of the leaf where its ripped next to it the other leaf has like brown spots starting and before it was brown spots it was shiny spots and I'm telling u I've searched this mf probably 100 times and haven't found any thrips except once I might've just been scaring myself but I could've sworn I saw a small white thing move but I didn't have a good grip on leaf and it slipped when I looked again nothing which just drove me crazy to look for more so I got proof of what I need to fix but I couldn't find anything a few black specks here and there but no movment

Could you have spilled/dripped nutes or water on that leaf?

LEDs will burn leaves with water specs.

No its appeared since we last chatted on my last thread and u said no misting so I stopped
Then it's just the feeding. High N will give you spots sometimes. Back your nutes off a very small amount if you are worried. Should stop any spotting.

I don't see anything that looks like pest damage unless it's concealed in the purple pic.

For the record if explosive growth and Nitrogen are to blame for your shredded leaves, my plants and many others would and should look like torn rags flying in the wind. If your leaves are being torn, munched or otherwise, it's not the Nitrogen's fault or your growth rates.

If there's anything to say about your plants, aside from they look good, is you may want to watch your N, just to be sure you're not over doing it...not because of torn leaves...but because the plant is very green and you don't want to cause lockout from having excess N.

Otherwise, I wouldn't sweat it. Your plant looks good.

Thank you I still haven't seen any sign of pests I just see shiny areas I'll try to get a pic without led on my gf has a iPhone camera so I figure while she's here I can get a good pic haha. Also I have been looking into the torn leaves thing maby its from unstable genitics because it doesn't look "chewed on" looks more like old around the area where there a rip or tear
