ittle white,bumpy spots on the leaves. Looks like powdery mildew, but this is not powder at all because the spots are in the structure of the leave. Look like sucking/bite spots.


At first I thought that they were spider mite symptoms. I hosed the plants down with natural soap mixed with sunflower oil.(works well with thrips)
I removed all the leaves with these spots. For the record I haven't seen spider mites once. I did have a thrip infestation at the beginning of the grow.
But the soap/oil mix spray killed all of them.

Medium/grow method: 70% soil, 30% coco, some perlite. 5liter pot.

Been feeding organically, with every watering I gave small amounts of nitrogen, after pre flowers appeared I gave it some diluted banana peel tea.
Been watering Every 4/5 days.

water source: tap water, left to sit for 24h.

Strain/age: Californian snow auto, jack herer auto, blueberry auto

light used: sunlight, usually 10 hours. After sunset have put them in the box for another 12 hours. Lights in the box are 2 led projectors 20w 6500k and 2 led lamps 25w 2700k.

Climate: temps hover between 30C and 39C. Outside.



Any advice, tips are appreciated. Thanks in advance!
 
Looks like thrip damage?
First of all thank you for replying.
Could be! I didn't consider this because the spots showed up after the initial infestation. After I hosed the plants down I had some new thrips last week, did the procedure again finishing them off. They might have done it.

It's just that I never had white powdery mildew, so I was wondering if this could be it. From what I understand WPM spots are more like dust on the leaves, the spots are not actually in the leave but on the leaves.
 
That's definitely not what I've got.
Must be bites than. Hope I don't have the mites:\
Thanks for the pictures. I can see on the first pic that it's on the leaf, not in the leaf like mine.
 
some people use neem or garlic to deter pests. the google has much to say on this
 
If you got neem oil mix:

In a spray bottle with warm water
1 1/2 tsp neem
1/2 tsp dish soap
Shake well to mix.

Only spray when lights are out, and only in veg. Do not spray in flower!! Spray both sides of the leaves.
