Gottagro has never taken a real chemistry class, i promise you that based on what i just read. The whole ec/ppm percveptions are just .. i don't even know how to describe it in a polite way. This is well beyond preflower, whatever that is supposed to mean. This plant is not showing an N-tox because the leaves are not overly dark nor glossy. More than one thing can cause the tips clawing. The 'tacoing' of the serated tips could be temp or RH related - too high / too low, respectively. If this is from your diary, it looks like you've already reduced fertilization a bit because the plant is a bit lighter from week 5 to week 6. In week 6 you have some signs of interveinal chlorosis. I don't see any twisting that you mention. So, nothing is very clear right now. The symptoms do not point to 1 answer. I see a lot of fluctuation over the weeks in your diary, too. A couple weeks ago you had darker foliage and light green new growth. That's a sign of too much p or k.. so review how you've adjusted your fertilization lately and maybe that will help clear things up. Stop trying to follow some anecdotal nonsense and observe and react to the plant to make decisions.. don't just add p/k if the plant shows no demand for it. It's not foie gras. you cannot force feed a plant. If you've been waffling around with fertilization formula over the last few weeks, that a major part of what you are seeing now.

I can see on the tips that are curling down they are beginning to burn slightly. It looks like a minor nutrient burn. I would not worry too much as it’s a very minor issue at the moment. You need to reduce the feed by about 20-25% or the next watering go straight water. Remember, when watering you need to see roughly 10-20% water flow out the bottom of your media. This ensures you are flushing out any old salt deposits in the soil to your nutrients do not build up. Great looking plant so far my friend. I hope this helps.

Your nutrient dose last feed was a touch hot. Nothing overly concerning here. Just back off next feed. Twisted leaves can be due to pH instability. Tip burn and down turned leaf tips is likely a stronger than she likes dose of fertilizer. Those down turned leaf tips will likely remain for the duration of the grow, but no biggie. The serrated leaf edges, when they brown up at the tips, then you know you burnt them good! hehe The picture you provided looks ok to me. Just ease off next feed. Maybe just a water between this feed and the next with some decent runoff to clear some salts out.

Your sides are clawing.. + id advise you increase ventilation around the plant. She looks a bit in need of ventilation. Lower the N. Or feeds. In pre flower it's a much more sensitive phase and any overfeedin during growing will show up as it has now Soil (1x2 feeds max a wk. Maybe even 1 if ppm is high enough. But to small 4-450ppm core npk feed. Give enzymes, calmag or something with low EC (salt) as enzymes and calmag hold high ec reading. But they are dif to core NPK ppm..so it's wise if you are mixing nutrients, take the ppm 1st of de core npk.
