what the heck happened

[DCLXVI]

I've no advice but I'm watching and hoping you pull out of it all fixed up. Positive wishes friend!

Under fed plants do not have rust spots on the leaves.

Sure they can, looks like a P deficiency. That and the uniform pale colour of the leaves from top to bottom tells me the plant needs more food

Doh! Have been there... or mixing nutes get distracted for a moment and completely forget where I was and what was next.

Do they sit in a catch pan or above? Shouldn't be allowed to sit in runoff, its waste, you don't want that reabsorbed.

Sorry fell asleep.
I throw away the runoff every couple of minutes

Ok.. If you say so... Ive been working this infirmary thread for 2 yrs now... I grow and document healthy plants from start to finish.. I know a locked out/over fed plant when I see one. The bad/incorrect info going around is at a high right now. So I'll just bow out of this thread and let you help him correct his issues.

Well that went south quickly! The reason I asked the OP for a full plant photo was because I noticed pale leaves in the background, I personally like mine darker at this stage. My first grows were plagued with over feeding and lockouts with organic bottled nutes, those plants were always dark, crispy and losing leaves.

Im new around here, but not a new grower. I was just pointing out a potentially easier fix for the OP. You crack on, with the infirmary advice, I’ll stick to my diary.

Look I’m new around here pal, but not a new grower. Issues like what you’ve got are the reasons why I’ve switched to chem nutes and coco. To me, personally, I think they look pale and almost yellowing through hunger. I have had rust spots like you have when using Biobizz nutes, I always got them around 3 weeks of growth but they never cause problems to yield. Fish mix is the strongest of their range I believe and I was always able to feed full strength without ill effects. The rust spots never progressed any further when I upped the feeding. I hope you figure it out, looks like there’s plenty of help round here

Was thinking and could it be a root rot?

Or a potassium...

I would expect overwatering signs to accompany that, ie droopy leaves, stunted growth and you do get yellowing but not as uniform on all the leaves as yours has. Starts from the bottom and the the leaves would show other deficiencies like magnesium too. Your plant looks like it’s had a good rate of growth and healthy overall, albeit a bit pale
