Deficiency?Hey everybody, I’ve never really dealt with deficiencies in autos as most of my experience is with growing photos outdoors. Does this look like a magnesium deficiency? These just appeared over night on just two of my larger growing white widow autos. Please let me know, thanks!

Anyone know what's wrong with my girl?Can anyone tell me if this is going to effect my flowers? Should I cut these leaves out? What can I do to correct it? I left a pretty good description in week 7 of the battle with this plant.

I think underwatering combined with the light being close has caused my issue. However older leaves have also dried up and died (but staying green). The way the leaf looks with yellowing though, and because a couple of leaf stems are turning reddish, maybe it's K deficiency?

A deficiency, a toxicity and a toxic-deficiency???Here's what I make of it (and PLEASE correct me where I am wrong!) : The tips yellowing indicates, a nitrogen burn. The burnt brown tip indicates, nitrogen burned to long 😂 The black spots indicate, a P or K issue (as the leaves are otherwise healthy green in color)
