Unknown lighter spots

[Dominok56]

Hey guys,

It’s my first grow in about 5 years and I’ve ran into a problem I haven’t seen before. The lower leaves are developing these lighter green spots that almost look like a layer of the leaf got shaved off. I’m almost positive they weren’t here last week, and I noticed them after a res change. PH and the roots are good so I’m confused on what this could be. The smaller plant is about a week younger and will be moved to a new space soon.

SF4000 LED
Temp ranges from 68 at night to 83 during the day.
humidity is around 45-55

I also did just pull out my air pump and there was a weird gunk on the hose. The roots were wrapped around the power plug so I had to finesse the roots off of it

it looks like it may be a deficiency of magnesium ............mac

I could see that. I did add a little more ph down than usual, but it was around 6. Then again.. my nutes are a little old. I’ll double check the PH when I get home. Thanks

It was a magnesium deficiency along with a couple others. The built up gunk from the water pump raised the ph to about 8 so I cleaned and refilled the res.

Thanks! I appreciate you checking back in.

The baby is Sunset Sherbet and the big one is Green Crack. Both hybrids, but I believe SS is Indica dom and GC leans towards sativa.
