My guess is nitrogen deficiency supposedly you should feed veg nutes 1 or 2 weeks into flowering just a little and week it off kinda

This can happen in flower. If the new growth is all looking good. And it doesn't seem to spread rapidly I wouldn't worry! Happy Harvesting!

Critical Purple: Leaves slightly yellow.
Just started my first grow. I1 placed the light high in the tent and the leaves slightly turned yellow. I lowered it yesterday to 18” over the top on the plants. Just wondering if I am on the right track to solve the issue. The plants are still growing. Minimal nutrients 1ml/gal.

Puntas y bordes amarillos/marrones ¿Carencia de Potasio?
Mi planta comenzó a florar aproximadamente hace 2 semanas y note que las puntas de las hojas se ponen amarillas, las hojas mas viejas se han puesto algo palidas y las puntas pasan de amarillo a marrón. También hay manchas marrones en hojas de mediana edad. ¿Carencia de K?

Puntas de las hojas amarillas, otras en garra y otras quemadas, que puede ser? Las plantas están en la 5ta semanita de crecimiento y ya pase a 12/12!!
Ayer regué mis plantas con los fertilizantes grotek colocando exactamente lo que me muestra la tabla en crecimiento y hoy mis plantas amanecieron así, no sé si es por el calefactor que tiene en el medio o por el monster grow que aporta demasiado nitrógeno. Que pueden tener??

Yellow tips near bud sites
Yellow tips are developing on some of the leaves near bud sites. Is this a cause for concern or a sign of a deficiency? The light is as high up as i can get it and it is on max currently. Also the only nutrients I have added the whole cycle has been small amounts of a compost tea

Rootbound recovery time
3 Bruce Banner plants were rootbound for about a week and a half or that's when I started seeing symptoms. I transplanted then into bigger pots yesterday. Will they be okay and if so how long will it take then to get back on track?

I have the light at a height of about 40 cm. The photo is taken immediately after watering. The water drains as it should. I use biobiz lite mix. I think it will be poor water quality or spoiled fertilizer. How do you recognize spoiled fertilizer?

Brown spots on top leaves - nutrients, light or something else?
She went into flower, now stretching. Set light to 100%, added Bio-Bizz Top-Max and Bio-Bloom (1ml/L each). 3 days later brown spots appeared on top fan leaves, very few also on lower fan leaves. I suspect this could be light burn or nutrient related. Any ideas? Pls help

deficiency symptoms
I'm a beginner and some plants are getting fallen leaves. They are being watered with the amount of approximately 10% of the volume of the pot and an average pH of 6.5. Runtz has Mag deficiency symptoms after I fertilized, is she also lacking N deficiency?
