What is this weird deficiency! Mites? 5 weeks into flower. Very concerned.

Hey. Not sure what the problem with my ladies is but i'm desperate to save them! They were doing wonderful until about a week ago. First a couple leafs and now the entire plant is starting to progressively get worse. I've spent so much time and energy on this grow. I'm almost willing to do anything. Please let me know what you think this might be. Someone told me it looks like a mite.

If you could answer the Qs in the How to Ask for Grow Help topic stickied at the top of this forum that would be a big help. Fertilizer, soil, lights, and watering regimen especially.

What if he is growing in coco?

It was definitely my ph! I switched it from 8 (my sink water) to 6.5. For a minute i freaked out and bought bug spray. Sprayed the shit of them and looked for bugs. Nothing.

Then i remembered i recently switched water types.

So should i slowly introduce them to the 6.5 bit by bit, or am i too late into flower to change it on them.

I've flushed them with the water they were used to before and now the new growth looks better.

Also, i am growing in a mixture of coco, soil, and hydroton pebbles.

 

[PlantWrestler]

Yep 6.5 I knew there was a soil mixture from your leaves, good stuff!

On second look they look really shiny and bumpy, scope for broad mites under shiny bumpy leaves.

They need more calmag and you can use mag amp alos they use alot as they get bigger you can never give them enough
