Hey Growmie, This is a potassium deficiency, my friend. With a potassium deficiency, you’ll generally see symptoms on older leaves, but not always. Sometimes you’ll see the symptoms at the top of the plant. Leaves with a potassium deficiency get yellow, brown, or burnt edges and tips. The burnt edges may look a little like nutrient burn, except the affected leaves also start turning yellow in the margins. The reason most growers see potassium deficiencies is because potassium is best absorbed at lower pH ranges. When the pH gets too high, your plant may exhibit signs of a potassium deficiency even if it’s physically there near the roots. In soil, potassium is best absorbed by the roots in the 6.0 – 7.0 pH range but I would try to get it around 6 - 6.5. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

I thought that potassium is better absorbed at pH 5.3-5.7 ! why do you need to do pH 6.2 and see how they react?

Hey! your nutrient feed looks alright doesn't seem like it's missing anything. I would try to simply adjust the PH to 6.2 and see how they react. If they don't show improvements 3-4 days after adjusting PH then add a bit more of a nutrient that has a higher percentage of potassium. You’re using quality soil or cannabis-friendly nutrients you probably don’t need to worry about adding more patassium. Good luck and happy growing!

Hey! Your Calmag feed looks good. Calcium deficiency are more like brown, rusty spots on the leaves. Magnesium looks a bit like this but the yellowing is stonger. Tips turning yellow like that is a clear indicator of potassium deficiency. Hope this helped, good luck and happy growing!
