So I had a hops plant growing indoors during daylight hours (under a couple CFLs). It kind of out grew the space it had available, plus I like the idea of the hops springing backu p next year, so I transplanted it into the ground at my house.

The plant looks ok overall... leaves are taut and seems to be climbing still. I am seeing some white splotching/bleaching on some of the leaves. Its mostly on the bottom/older leaves. Is this just from stress or is it a deficiency? Is there anythign I can do? I've only given it light nutrients since the transplant, along with some mychorrizae to help it root.

Looks like powdery mildew. Hit it with a fungacide like organocide.

That is absolutely not powdery mildew. Looks to me like sun injury, and since you said they were growing indoors until now it makes a lot of sense. WIth sun injury, the damage is already done, and will not significantly harm the plant's growth so there is nothing to worry about.

Maybe its because I'm on my mobile, but looks like white splotches(powdery mildew) to me. But it could be sun stress too.
