Hey, these are signs of calmag deficiency, these brown spots are the main symptom. Add some calmag and you’ll be okay 😊

500 or 700 ppm ? 500 is a bit low, 700-750 ppm (NaCl 0.5 scale) should be fine

Why leaves brown? (urgent)
Some leaves turn brown as in the photo. Leaves in the middle turn brown first, then bottom leaves. Now I try making larger lamp-to-plant distance and feeding less nutrients, but no good sign appears. Other conditions are stated in my diary. Why do you think it is?

What is this brown intrusion upon my plant? And how do I obliterate it?
Another question?! Anyway, what the hell is this browning? I think it's light burn. But why is it lower too? PH? Magnesium? Nitrogen toxicity? Par: 1300 PPFD Fox Farm tiger bloom 7 ml/gal. Fish Shit 3 ml/gal. See diary for environmental conditions. Thanks for the help. Again.

Possibly Potassium Deficient? Based on ALL the pics I could find, but not sure.
I noticed these brown splotches and leaf edges on one area bud and pistils of my Orange Sherbet last night. Based on what I can find online, this might be potassium deficiency? This is mostly on one spot near darkest edge when tent closed. Thanks!

dark, curled downwards and brown fan leaves
Why are the fan leaves dark, curled downwards and showing brown marks originating from the edges? Had an issue of dark and curled leaves for a week or 2, did think it was getting better (N2 deficiency) but now suddenly after not watering for a day the leaves are going brown.
