Yellow Brown Spots on Leaves

High and Hello!

I've been having an issue with my plants' leaves since about the first week. They slowed down in growth almost to a halt at that point and began to show these yellow - brown spots. I figured it was lack of nutrients (@ 0ppm and 5.8ph) so I gave a small dosage (50 ppm).

They responded well to the nutrients and began taking off. Unfortunately, the spots still accumulated as the days went by and that brings us to this point. I have the pictures of the affected ones attached for references. Notice they're all showing the same signs.

Grow Info
Aeroponic / DWC system with both sprayers (1min on 5min off) and air stones running at all times. I'm using Botanicare nutrients (Pure Blend Pro veg, Liquid Karma, CalMag plus) which I steadily increased to 1500ppm up to this point. Temps at 77 day and 69 night. They're at 3 1/2 weeks old and growing fast now. My only concern are the yellow brown spots that continue to spread slowly but surely.

I've seen pictures of similar issues with fingers pointing to calcium and magnesium deficiencies or the like. Can anyone confirm or notice if it's something they've seen or experienced before? Thank You:leaf:

most likely it is PH fluctuation or nute burn. If u dont have a PH meter, get one, and cut back on your nutes. Should solve you woes. Good luck.


i agree, it might be nute burn, mine did the same last grow and i backed them down for a few days and it didnt improve, so i flushed everything and basically started back from scratch with no nutes at first and they improved greatly, hope they stop :shock:
