Looks like it has similar symptoms to pH fluctuations. If it was my grow, I would check the pH of the water/food before and then check the run-off after watering. Happy Growing!👉😁👈

Yellow/Brownish colored tips of leaves.
So, my girl now is 11 days old, while i was looking at here i noticed that the tips of the second pair of true leaves is soightly yellow/brownish colored, im worried for my plant. Could it be a wind burn ? I have a ventilator in my tent which was blowing at here. I moved it now.

K deficiency? Or something else?
Not sure how to go about this deficiency. PH is solid at 6.5 so it’s not a ph issue. It seemed I had corrected the deficiency when it first appeared a few weeks ago, but now the brown spots seem to be spreading again. I think it might be K but not sure? Any ideas?

Leaves turn brown all of a sudden
What could these brown parts mean? They show up randomly, also on lower leaves, so couldn’t be the light being too close? Thanks!

The last few days I had 3 plants start not looking so hot. The 3 pictures are the 3 plants when I got home today. I haven't really encountered deficiencies, if it's even that. I'm watering at 5.8 and last I checked the runoff a 2 days ago it was 6.8. Any ideas?

Leaf damage/discolouration
The Skunk has been getting a lot of leaf issues. I have been trying to stay on top of picking them off as they appear in case it's rust or similar and can spread. It almost looks like cal mag deficiency, but I'm feeding cal mag each feed. This is the only one effected out of four

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?

help in Hydro RDWC/DWC
Hello, my plants are now about 4 weeks old. The leaves droop and curl. The spots on the leaves are increasing. Is the PPM value too high? It's 1000ppm tds They grow in an RDWC system with top feed. The top feed is permanently switched on. Can that lead to problems?

Spotting issue consistent in all my grows. Have always thought Cal deficient but more Cal never fixes the issue. PH always checked with 2 PH pens 6.2-6.8.
Always pops up around the same time in flower.. week 4/5. Brown irregular spots and occasional curling down on the fan leaves. The only things I have consistently used in all the grows is the LED light, RO water, and CALiMAGic. Switched to dry organics but now its back. N toxic?
