I had the same problem last grow... Mine appered after I overwathered, and by the looks of your soil I think its your problem too...

Personally, I'd just pop them off and see how the rest of the plant does. You don't need them anyway. Check your water and soil pH.

Leaf tips are browning
Ciao tutti, What is going on with these leaf tips? It’s the third day of their Flush & It can’t be NutBurn, or the color of tips doesnt look like NutDef! Is the light stress? If this de-coloring continues, will it effect the buds & final yield? Thanks

Browning of leaves, heat burn or pests?
Plants are showing signs of browning, and other weirds leaf markings, kind of grey-ish not too pronounced. It's been very hot and sunny here for 5 days, temps reaching above 37°. I left them in the sun during this period, is it heat stress? Otherwise growing nicely.

I believe I have a phosphorus deficiency from lack of watering/early pH issues. I also have curly/dented leaves that can be seen in the close ups. Does this seem like a phosphorus deficiency or what else may it be?

Brown spots and yellowing pictured above. My best guess is a Cal/Mag deficiency. Was feeding Botanicare Cal-Mag Plus at 1 ml/l up until ~2 weeks ago (friend has been watering while I was out of town). Before I feed her, any advice on what the problem is and how to correct it?

Deficiencies? Brown spots, yellowing and purple stems
What is this deficiency or maybe toxicity and whats the solution? She is fed with biobizz chart instructions but with every other watering. She is big so I'm guessing I should water with nutes every time? She showed this first week into flowering.
