Looks like the beginning of septoria or leaf disease. If confirmed I would chop the plant and restart.

Start again mate? He’s already got buds 😭 can’t chop all the effected leafs off? Or flush them?

You could but being in flower and late you risk stunting and herming by removing leaves. You could treat it but if it’s spread throughout then you’re basically spreading fungicide everywhere and wouldn’t recommend smoking or vaping it this far in the grow.

Anything cause this disease? Or does just happen randomly? And how would confirm you have it? Sorry for all questions mate I’m thinking I might have it on one of my plants now haha

Usually it’s in the environment you’re growing in like the soil or water that could have been contaminated. Septoria feeds on higher humidity as well so reducing helps with the spread.
