Good Morning and Happy Easter Fellow Farmers!!
I need help identifying this please!
I found these three leaves at the top of the canopy of the Ms Green on the left, not on the previously ill'in Ms Yellow on the right. Weekly applications of
Regalia-CG continue.
I think this is a manganese deficiency,
This is as close as i can come based on data i found here:

Problem: Leaves may become yellow in between the veins, with mottled brown spots on the affected leaves. These brown dead patches may spread and eventually kill the leaf. Leaves may also shred and fall apart.
Overall growth of the marijuana plant may be stunted. With a manganese deficiency, the yellowing will begin at the base of the leaves and move outwards towards the tips.
Solution for Manganese Deficiency in Cannabis
Your plant may also exhibit signs of a manganese deficiency if the pH is too high, or if the plant is getting too much iron.
Please note: After a manganese deficiency is cleared up, the problem (brown spots and yellowing leaves) will stop spreading to other growth usually within a week. Please note that leaves which have been damaged by a manganese deficiency will probably not recover or turn green, so you want to pay attention to other growth for signs of recovery.
- In soil, manganese is best absorbed by the roots in the 6.0 – 7.0 pH range (some growers recommend keeping the pH slightly lower, from 6.0 – 6.5, if you suspect a manganese deficiency in particular)
- In hydro, manganese is best absorbed by the roots in the 5.5 – 6.0 pH range (in hydro, it’s generally recommended to keep the pH between 5.5 – 6.5, but manganese specifically tends to be best absorbed below 6.0)
