    looks like a cal mag deficiency,
    foliar spray with Epsom salts or invest in some magne cal + and use at 1/2 a mil per litre per feed/water, 7-10 days and should be a lovely green colour again..
    up the feed a little too

    You dont have any problems what so ever your plants are simply transpiring water and as the temps cool at lights out water is forming on overlapping leaves. Do you have your extractor fan of during lights of.

    extraxtion is on all the time mate, its in a room which is airy aswell. Picking up now with a feed & spray with epsom salts, hope thats sorts it. I think the flush helped maybe aswell. Post a pic in a bit.

    Its great you have fixed the problem mate but they brown marks look nothing like calcium or magnesium def. Magnesium is real easy to spot bright lime green inbetween the veins while the veins stay green. Calcium is like your plant has chicken pox between the veins.

    Carpetburns spot on 100% calcium deficiency.. Try Altering the ph of your Feed to allow more uptake of Calcium...

    And Chill m8.. Your idea on Magnesium is correct.. Like I said 100% calcium def as I experience this nearly every grow..

    Thanks people, this only started happening soon as i ph'd my feed to 6.5. Then started seeing this, checked run off & it was 5.3. So I flushed yesterday with allot of straight tap water (ph 7.2) and managed to get run off to 6.5. I think thats what i'm supposed to do anyway.

    Got some epsom salt's and folia sprayed the leaves bein carefull not to spray bud sights. And gave her a water with some. Hopefully that will sort it.

    here's some pics from this mornin. she seems allot happier...

    The spots u can c are pretty much everywhere, thats y I was panicking a bit.
    I think my soil is or was acidic making nutes out of range (calcium/magnesium) giving me this problem. I just don't know now if I should continue to ph everything to 6.5 or just leave ph alone and let it sit at 7.2.?

    So in this case what do people think about ph'ing & how should I continue.
