Are my plants sick? Can you help?

[lulu64]

Some of the leaves on my plants are showing yellow/rust colored speckles. I've traversed many sites on the web and have not found any answer to this. Is it a lack of nutes, does it have a disease, is it bugs? I'm growing indoors and keep a tight control on things. This is my first attempt and I'm not sure what is "normal" for the plants.

It sounds like you may have a Magnesium def. You can treat it cheaply and easily with Epsom salt. Heres a link the FAQ section of this site. It has everything you need to know about growing.

Thanks for your help. How do I mix the salts? Today I gave it nutes for the first time using FF Tiger Bloom & Big Bloom. Maybe this will clear it up.

Mix 1/2 Tsp per 1 gallon of water. Water as needed or until new growth shows healthy signs. Since you gave nutes, maybe wait a week and mix it with your next watering. The nutes you added may clear it up.

Good Luck!
