someone on ICMAG once told me WHEN IN DOUBT FLUSH IT OUT! hehe then do a light balanced feed a bag of espoma garden tone from agway for $10 will do the trick
 
use the search option or check the faq's. youd get quicker response on q's like this if you do the research yourself. good luck. id say lower your ph potassium is lacking or being locked out. water left on leaves overnight or water droplets under hot hids will also cause rust spots and lead to fungus. good luck.

You have a magnesium def and also a little calcium def.
You have too low of pH in your medium. Probably from adding too many nutes. Flush, and follow up with light nutes and new growth should be good.

Of course this is assuming that they are not simply underfed. I assumed that you are using some nutes, though you did not say.

maybe get some cal mag tomarrow? and feed with that?
i also read if temps drop too low in ur grow room the roots would beable to use the Mg? maybe that could be it? it got cold in my room for a few days 67F* i put a heater in their now.
