Not a deficiency, but nitrogen (over dose) burning.

That looks like PH problems coupled with over watering and a slight nitrogen toxicity! Feed your lady some light water feeding at the 6.4 range for a week! Good luck ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

Check your soil, plants will throw some crazy looking deficiencies if it's over watered. If you are sure you didn't overwater the plant check your pH.

Potassium or magnesium. Might be a touch of both actually. Is ph in substrate or Reservoir correct? Ph tool calibration done regularly?

Brown spots, serrated edges curling up - calcium deficiency?This is a Barney's Critical Kush auto that's at about day 57. She's into flowering, but I've just started to notice some brown spots on leaves with some slight tip browning, and the serrated edges on the leaf are curling up. Is this just a straight calcium deficiency?

Help with burned leaf tips The tips of some of the leaves have begun to dry, curl, and look to be dying (see pics). I think it's some sort of nutrient burn, but I'm unsure. I water every other day w/ a solution of Miracle-Gro 24-8-16 at 50% recommended concentration. Used distilled H2O last 2 waterings.

Two part leaf question.Two parter 😁. Are the new leaves on my plant deformed or am I being paranoid? How can I stop leaf curl? At first I thought it was a light/heat issue but both light and temps are fine and it doesn't feel too humid in there. See more pictures in my diary.
