I would doubt it at this stage of growth. Other reasons could be light or heat stress or ph in balanced

To me it looks like potassium excess, not a deficiency of any sort. Decent soil will still have ample nutrients for baby seedlings, and at this age.

Strange Twisting Leaves
I have a plant that's just over 3 weeks old, and since the first week or so, I noticed it has some leaves that grow with a "kink" or "twist." They all seem to have a small discolored spot on the edge of the leaf that eventually becomes the corner of the kink/twist

Root rot or pH imbalance?
This blueberry muffin (f) plant was doing well until last week when it started deteriorating. Its grown on a mix of cocopeat, vermicompost, perlite mix and fed on compost tea and cal-mag mix. I might put it down eventually but I checked the pH and it was 5!

Burnt yellow edges autoflower? Too hot?
Some girls show some issue, like burnt yellow edges on the leaves. I have still a little hot hot temperature (over 30C), it's this reason? Or some shortage or surplus? Should I worry? Start of 8th week. 3th week of flower. Thx.

Help! Why are my leaves turning yellow?
Not sure why some of her leaves are yellowing on the edges. Is this due to environment? - 78.3°F | 64.8%RH Or a watering issue? - Currently she's drinking 8-9 cups a day through a sub-irrigated planter (EarthBox). Or maybe a deficiency? - See Logs for complete details.

How do you harvest in hydro (drip system with a tank) when some are late ?
Half of the plants are late (chlorosis, iron toxicity, nitrogen overfd) on a scrog net. As individual flush is impossible, I guess I have no choice than having different batches of ambered trichomes ! And I thought about different strains next time, sweet dreams...

Yellow and fragile leaves 2 week
Couple leaves yellowing and bit curved up. I suggest there can be the options: 1) magnesium deficiency; 2) nitrogen deficiency; 3) Light burn. For case it is magnesium deficiency I sprayed the leaves with magnesium sulfate (solution - 1g per 1 liter), but it won't help.
