If you look under the leaves do you see bugs or crawlies. is it isolated to that one set of leaves? I am currious to see what some one thinks on this as well, as I have seen it and still do not know what it is. the burn spots on top, could be from foiler spray burn but I dot think so, it is related to the munched leaves.

I don't see no bugs, no nothing, I just gave them 2 tsp of calmag and phd water hopefully they recover in a week or so.

AaaaaaaaGGGGGGGGGGGGHhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! IT look's like the dreaded Spider Mites to me also....Good Luck I seem to have to fight them in the spring when my rooms warm up above 75 degree's the egg's start hatching usually there will be tiny eggs where the yellow spots are ...get your self a magnifying glass or a jewler's loop and look very closely and watch for movgement they can be very hard to spot.

I think giving calmag was the right thing to do in this case. mg deficiency shows as small, golden-yellow spotting in between the leaf veins, and that looks exactly like what you've got there. If giving calmag was a shot in the dark, I think you hit the target. It shouldn't take more than a couple days for the spotting to stop or disappear.

Well, not disappear, the spots that are there are already dead cells, they won't regenerate,... but there shouldn't be any new ones forming! ;)

But yeah, I'm with PolishPollack looks like CalMag would be a good first shot at curing it.:rastasmoke:
