Got this auto that is doing pretty good I think? Beginning of week 4 roughly. Not sure what this spotting on leaves is? Is that an Iron deficiency?

Hey there can you perhaps do a closer picture of the spots on the leaves as well? From what I can see it looks like you might have leaf miners

Was some de powder that was spread in that area recently. It got some on my og kush that I was most worried about. Forgot I got a tiny bit on this one. Possible culprit?

Looks like leaf miner damage. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf_miner

Trace element deficiencies like iron would yellow new growth up top. This damage is not nutritional. It’s from some pest sucking on your leaves.

What would you recommend?

Looks like thrips, aphid, or some kind of leaf miner damage for sure. Look under the leaves and you might see some little white /translucent bugs there. Marrone Bio-innovations products Venerate and/or Grandevo would help. Since you’re in week 4 of flower you don’t want to be spraying anything. However, there are some products that say you can spray until harvest. Dr. Zymes and lost coast plant therapy, I believe make that claim.

Not flower it’s an auto that is in week 1 of flower.. Don’t want to contaminate buds if that is a concern at this early of a stage.

My bad, I must have misread the time in flower. Spraying is generally accepted in the community up until week 3 of flower. If you spray, be sure to spray the underside of the leaves first then the top of the plant. It’s easier to get the bottoms before it’s weighed down from the top spray

No problem bro! Leaf miners will be an easy win for you. You’ll have them knocked out in no time. Be thorough and consistent with your sprays and drenches and you’ll be fine!

Also, Regalia by Marrone Bio-innovations is a great product for helping prevent molds and mildew. I love the Marrone products

Make sure it’s not some type of fungus. I’m not sure how the weather has been there this year but in Minnesota it’s by far the wettest spring and summer we’ve had in 5 or 6 years. I’ve been treating lawns for all types of fungus for weeks now. Tree guys are going hard as well. Word on the street is nurseries and orchards and golf courses are pruning and treating and using fans and working their asses off to combat fungi this year…

I’ll have to ask some local gardeners what they are dealing with I guess. It’s been pretty dry here in Oklahoma lately. The plants are covered so don’t get wet from Mother Nature too often… I’m gonna get a closer look now. Think ima spray them down with some water and check out lost coast plant therapy like another respondent recommended. Been meaning to visit their site anyhow. Thanks for the help!

Get some been oil from the store asap and then use it. If it’s quick enough it shouldnt be to bad because buds aren’t formed yet
