Hello everyone I have here 9 plants there OG cross with purple kush that i purchase from Ontario Seed Bank. The plants are 26 days old and I having an issue with the leaves.

I'm using tap water with a mild solution of Dyna Grow the label says use 1/2 Tsp per gallon my Res is 20 gallon. That would be 20 Tsp for 20 gallons I only use 15 Tsp im not sure if that the problem my leaves have gold and brown spots but the new growth looks fine and also I'm having leaf curling.
The PH is around 5.5 to 6.0 I dont have a digital PH meter just the bottle tube chart. The light is JR 250Watts that on 24/7 and grow media is hydroton and is water 4x in 24 hours (ie. 6am, 12pm, 6pm, 12am)
What do recommend me do thanks for the advice everyone
Also Temp stays at 75 all the times

I'm *not* a hydro guy, and I have no idea if this is related to your leaf issue, but check your math.

According to the above you're giving them nutes at 150% of the recommendation. Most people start out low, say 50% and work it up.

EvilCartman thanks for the reply but I made an error my wife told me it's the 12 gallon Res and she feed 12 1/2 tsp like the instruction reads I don't have a ppm meter but the instruction she for small plants add 1/2 TSP per gallon so 12 Gallon=12 1/2 TSP right? Even if the dose is too high would the leaves curl up like that?

Do you mean 12 & 1/2 tsp or 12 of 1/2 tsp? If you mean the second that would just be 6 tsp...

It looks a little like nutrient burn to me... but i'm a total n00b, so don't take this as your final answer. If they were my plants, i'd either weaken the solution even more, or just feed it straight water for a week or so.

...keep in mind thats just what i'd try, not saying it will help at all.

i have the same problem going on...
little brown spots that seem to just disappear ond leave a hole in my plants leaves.. i thought it was just the one plant but now that i have looked all over them all it seems to be wide spread (8 of 12) and seems to start as a light-ish green almost scaley look then goes to yellow then brown then the 'dead spot' as i am calling them go away.. and leave a hole in my leaves.
sound familiar?
hope we can figure this out..
