Growth seems to have slowed, newest growth is pale compared to older growth, tips are slightly burned, edges curled in slightly. Any ideas? Thanks.

It’s a potassium deficiency mate. Remember, during flowering you need low N high P high K.

It's either a nitrogen deficiency or iron deficiency.

Looks like your potassium deficiency just a little, but leaves clawing is too much nitrogen. If they are droopy it may be poor aeration in soil or too much water. Also always good to check ph of run off first and foremost. Good luck and happy growing. 🌲🌲🌲👊

Week 2: One of the plants still doesn't look good + other beginner questions :)Second week and one of the plants has weird spots + leaves curled. Not sure what to do. Do I overwater? Is it some kind of disease or deficiency? No idea. Also, when should I start feeding the plants? And how much water do I need at this point? 😥

yellow leaf tips "I've noticed yellow leaf tips on one of my plants. My watering pH was 6.5, and EC was 1.6. Today, I flushed it with osmosis water (pH 6.5), and the drainage water had a pH of 6.2 and EC of 1.0. Is the problem resolved now, or do you have any other suggestions?

Any idea what is causing this crisping on a few of my leaves? I am maybe seeing some slight curling/taco-ing on the upper leaves too? I think the PH might be a bit high in my water too, it's 7. I've ordered a filter and some PH Dwon, the PPM was only 250. Related?

Nutrient lockout or deficiency Die unter Planze im Bild ist seit ein paar Tagen hell obwohl ich letztes mal schon mehr gedüngt hab. Habe mit EC 1.5 / Ph 6.2 gegossen. Im runoff kam Ec von 3.5 raus, es war aber nur sehr wenig runoff deswegen find ich 3.5 eigentlich in ordnung. Blatt spitzen sind aber auffällig.

Top leaves turn dark and curl - What can I do?I've had Nitrogen and possible Cal/Mag deficiencies 2 weeks ago. Mid last week I started noticing some burn a the tips, so i dialed nutrients back again. By this weekend the tips of the leaves curled further and turned dark. The rest still looks a bit pale, but buds look good.
