Hello, this is my first grow, growing Barneys auto pineapple express, limited in space so this plant seems ideal.

plant is starting to bud and looking healthy (i think) apart from some brown spots on the leaves, spots are not on the top leaves, only the lower.

i'm growing in natural light on a window sill, the weather has been good lately and the pots have got very warm.

i'm using plagron terra bloom, half a cap full in 1.5 litres, only watering when soil is dusty on top.

could the spots be caused from the heat on the window sill?

any suggestions gratefully received.

Nah... too much heat looks a lot different. This could be a lot of things. Your feeding your plant and Im assuming that the nutrients that you are using have all of the Micro and Macro nutrients in them that are important. So if thats true, then are your checking and adjusting your PH to around 6.5?

If its not that, then get a microscope and look at the rusting looking spots from underneath the leaves. If you see any critters running around, then you have rust mites and should spray them with the strongest miticide you can find before they get any further into flowering.

If its not that, then buy a small sulfur burner and some sulfur and use it on that plant. If the plant perks up the next day, then it was Rust Fungus.

Or the worse case scenario... is you have root aphids and this is the very first signs of the damage that will soon come on more rapidly. I've only had them once and all I was able to do was control them.. not completely stop them. There is a good thread about them on this site though.

Good luck to you.

PS... I forgot exactly what aphid damage looks like.. but that might be regular aphid damage. Dont quote me on that though, but regular aphids are pretty easy to get rid of. Soapy water spray 3 days in a row will knock em out.
