Light burn?

shredflandersstarted grow question 5y ago

Is this light burn, or something else? Plants are getting very close to light. Leaves not directly under seem okay, so leads me to believe it's light burn.

I'm with @Mr_Weeds_Autos It's most probably light burn so move them further away from the lamps or move them side a little or dim the light.

Nute burn other symptoms. Is this a case of overwatering?Hey peeps, One of my plants (start of week 5) Started with burnt tips due to nute burn which I've taken steps to halt. Lower leaves started yellowing and drooping, but now a few newer leaves started showing yellowing as well. Is this overwatering + nute burn or is there more?

Yellow leaves question.Good morning growers, I have noticed some yellowing of the bottom flowers on my one of my plants. Everything else looks extremely vibrant and healthy. Does this look like a watering or nutrient issue? Or is it something I should not be too concerned with ? Thank you everyone :)

Slowed growth, yellowing top fan leaves Any suggestions as to what my plant may be deficient in here? I have been feeding very minimally with less than the recommended amount every other week. Nutrients I am using are biobizz fish mix, bio bloom and top max with just some cheap compost soil.

Brown spots and yellowing pictured above. My best guess is a Cal/Mag deficiency. Was feeding Botanicare Cal-Mag Plus at 1 ml/l up until ~2 weeks ago (friend has been watering while I was out of town). Before I feed her, any advice on what the problem is and how to correct it?

Is it possible that maybe I underfed my plant and that's causing my actual problem? Is it something normal? Or there's something else going on with it that I should check and fix fast? In general the plant has a lighter green color and old leaves are getting yellow. Thanks!

Pruning dilemma I am noticing that some leaves are turning yellow at the very bottom of some plants, I think that there is not enough light coming through. So my question is (I did only LST and FIM --> on the main branch on every plant) should I start to prune some branches to empower top part?
