Yellow Leaf Dots Spreading Completely Over Some Leaves (It's not spider mites)
A couple different situations and mediums. But you might want to ask a mod to give your questions their own thread.
Perhaps buffers in the soil are starting to fade at about 6 weeks. Kinda early for FF.

Did this problem start when you started using the limewater?

Gotta get moisture and nutrients to the lower root zones, and an occational flush to release built-up nutrients and salts helps too. (I do monthly mini-flushes. 1 gallon of properly ph'd water to gallon of pot size.)
