Preying leaves are a good sign usually dropping tips can indicate an overwatering issue though the medium does look dry so maybe she needs a lil extra feed :)

Nitrogen toxicity and tip burn
Smallest plant (1st pic) was showing nitrogen toxicity and I just fed distilled water at 6.3ph to try and help. Bigger plants had some tip burn and curling up. Thought this would help them. Any tips on how you would treat this please?

Leaves curl on upper new growth and mid but not lower.
I’m using the canna coco line except boost, looks like phosphorus deficiency. I just lowered my a and b 0.7 ec and added 0.3 of pk for a total of 1.0. Is this phosphorus deficiency and do you think my changes will help. Leaves are a little dark shinny and the shape is odd.

Problem with plants in the 3rd week of vegetation.
I'm posting again because I accidentally marked it as resolved. I was using BioBizz CalMag from the beginning, but when I switched to Advanced Nutrients, I stopped because Ph Perfect Sensi Coco Grow A and B already contain CalMag.
