After very close inspection, thankfully there were no signs of thrips. The spots are light green so it makes me think that it is some sort of nutrient deficiency.

Man, I'm on my 5th grow now and still question my watering as it is very easy to over water. I was aware of over watering, read all about it and STILL over watered even though I thought I wasnt. Im not alone, see it all the time with new growers.

Underwatering is not good BUT its 100 times better than over watering. When you think its time to water, DONT. Give it one more day. If the leaves start to droop (the plants will let you know) you went a little too far but thats OK. Ive found that cannabis loves a little dry spell and now you know when its dry.

And last but not least, if you want to know for sure without any question.... Weigh your potting soil and pot when its bone dry. Record this number, add water and weigh again. This is a fool proof method that works. It is also helpful because you can see exacty how much water your plant is drinking as these numbers change drastically as the plant matures.

Still not giving the plants any nutrients but I feel at this point that something is needed to fix this issue. Any suggestions would be great.

there is a nute your missing, i know this because i have 2 grows my main grow is amazing not missing much, the 2nd grow doesnt get near as much fert and some of my leafs have gone like this, this isnt a nitrogen def but its another one. there are a few deficiency graphs on google you should sus out.
plants at a perfect height for this to happen also, all that stuff thats hurt, you should defoliate later in its life.

My first suggestion would be to look for changes in the new growth. That picture is of an older leaf, which probably won't show much improvement.

I think the coloration could be leaf variegation. It isn't a nutrient deficiency, and it usually isn't a problem. If it's bad, the yield can be less because there's less chlorophyl in the leaves.

Surprisingly that is one of the newest leaves on the plant towards the top so that is what made me think that it was a deficiency. I've done a lot of research but nothing that I have read is really definitive on what could cause it. I figured it was a problem with the chlorophyll as well but not sure how to correct that.

Leaves that have been damaged usually don't get better. So, look at new growth to see if a problem is improving. When the cause of a problem is not known, the best thing to do is get everything as dialed-in as possible and then watch the new growth to see if the plant improves. Chances are it will.

That's what I was hoping but that leaf is newer growth. I'll keep an eye on it still but hopefully it doesn't get worse.

I did some research and it definitely looks similar. No clue how I would have gotten that so I'm hoping that it is something different.

Aside from what I can assume at this point is TMV, she seems to be doing pretty well. Tips are still curling slightly but I have only given it water and a little bit of Cal-Mag in the past 18 days. Already 15in tall so I have another 9in to go until I switch it to flower.

You appear to be over doing the nutes. try just using plain ph'd water. Let the soil dry out between watering.

I haven't used any nutes in the last 18 days. Only plain ph water about every 4 or 5 days when the soil is completely dry.

Your plants look like they are doing better. :) Dont overthink it.

Thankfully the plant is pest free. Thanks for the information though!

I'm about 2 weeks in to switching to flower. Plant was about 22in when I switched and it has only grown about 2in in those 2 weeks. Buds are starting to form nicely but I was expecting the plant to grow quite a bit in the final stretch. Anyone dealt with this also?

Oh also you're not really supposed to use synthetic nutes with organic soil as this can kill the microbes in your soil which is not good.

Maybe some if them but not all, it's just redundant and unnecessary. Risk of burning them is much higher
