Water on leaves while light is on can be magnified and burn leaves. I think you are having a potassium deficiency or your substrate ph is out of range

Harvesting a struggling plant or just letting it fight Can she be saved or just flush her and harvest what I can? She doesn't appear to be happy. Has some CBD genetics so the lack of trichomes don't worry me. Rest of my garden is fading as well. Flushed em last feeding and they didn't seem to like it.

2 Yellowing Fan Leaves I have 2 large fan leaves from the main cola turning yellow and 1 almost looks crisp or burnt on the edges. It is only 2 of the leaves and by my reckoning, they are 2 of the oldest leaves on the plant. From research, it could be the bump in nutes or water issue. Any ideas?

Nutrient lock out?Well watered my plants with great value drinking water. Ph 4.11. Didn't check ph until week 3. Currently upping it to 6.5 after I found the issue. Does this look like nutrient lock out? They were in root Riot starter plugs. And I fed the some clonex and great white microbs.

Why is the tip of my leaves burned? Happened on two out of three plants – Perlon Lightmix – After 10 days: 0.75ml Alga Grow My Green Gummy Auto has a problem. I feel like it might be nutes burn, but unsure. Grown in a garden and windowsill. In addition to the nutes mentioned in title, added 1mL or Sensi Bloom A&B and 0,75mL of Bud Candy two days ago. Received 5 hours of sun for 2 weeks, and 10 today.
