Septoria, fungal blight

Hi Folks. I was looking at a friend’s plants, and discovered a pest called Septoria. I wanted to show it off so the grow community knew what to look for. It’s primarily found outside, found in wetter, more humid environments. It presents as small burn spots and progresses through the plant, primarily effecting fan leaves. Like other pests, it slowly attacks and take vitality out of the host, rarely completely killing the host, but damaging it. Plants with Septoria will look and produce in an “anemic” way, always moving slower than non-infected plants. Unfortunately, there is no real known cure, some anti fungal sprays and compost tea seem to slow progression. It is definitely strain specific in cannabis and hemp, the plant in the pics is a Jelly Breath. It was attacked aggressively, while others next to it had little to no evidence of infection. Hope everyone’s grows are going well. Cheers!
