My girls have really taken a turn for the worse over the past week or so 
. It started as some brown spotting but now there are several leaves that just look awful, and lots of leaves that don’t have spots are starting to turn a more pale shade of green, I feel like they’re yellowing. I am trying to address these issues by changing my watering practices (I had been watering to too much run off, which I just recently read that Nebula says to water to very little to no run off when using Nature’s Living Soil), adding Roots Organic Cal-Mag, and adding more Nature’s Living Soil concentrate as a top dressing. I keep testing the water pH I’m giving and it always comes out in the 6.0-6.5, so even if this is all caused by bad soil pH, I really don’t know what else I could do at this point.
While I try my best to address these problems, my question is this: should I remove these affected leaves? Are they harming my girls? Or can they still provide any benefits? How should I decide which leaves to cut and which to leave? Can they get better? Thanks!
Full details:
2 x OG Kush autos from Nirvana, indoors in a 4x4 tent
Age: 42 days since seeds popped, but budlets are still small and they haven’t been flowering very long, maybe a couple weeks
Soil: Fox Farm Ocean Forest with Nature’s Living Soil and perlite (“Living Soil†approach, not “Super Soil†approach)
Fed only water, a mix of spring and filtered drinking water that comes out at roughly 6.5 pH (I feed only water since I’m using living soil)
Light: Black Dog PhytoMAX-2 600 (615 watts from wall)
Temperature: Low 70s during lights off, low 80s with lights on
Humidity: Upper 40s with lights off, low to mid 40s with lights on
Ventilation: 8†system with 710 CFM fan pulling through two separate large carbon filters (one tail end and one inline) through very long duct work, resulting in a nice breeze coming out in an adjacent room, and tent walls sucking in decently but not extremely hard
Small Vornado air circulator inside tent, blowing 24/7 on low, pointed slightly down to not be directly on leaves
Vornado oscillating tower fan blowjng softly across the full height of the plants for roughly 12 hours per day, staggered 6 on, 6 off, 6 on, 6 off
