Light burn? Nute deficiency?

Fwish
Fwishstarted grow question 3 years ago
I moved into a bigger tent and got another light. I believe I light burned my plants but it could also be a deficiency? Seems to be more on top growth.

The new growth is looking a bit lemon lime green and the tips of the plants are yellowing. This can be caused by lighting being to close the the plant leaves are going through to many nutrients. Your on the high end of scale for auto feeding at 1.2EC, some of them do not like to go above 0.8-1.0 https://www.autoflower.net/forums/threads/med-man-method-feeding-chart-ppm-ec.47856/ its not a perfect reference needs adjustment if the plant needs less or more. As for the light, did the new one come with any par or lighting maps/suggestions for hang height? is this the new or old light on the diary? growdiaries.com/grow-lights/horticulture-lighting-group-hlg/260w-qb-v2-rspec Its suggested hang height via googleing is 24" but best to contact the manufacture and get the info. Good grow lights have this in the manuals. I did find this PPFD map on one web page. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0504/4713/files/HLG_260W_PAR_grande.jpg?v=1533054531 https://www.ledgrowlightsdepot.com/products/horticulture-lighting-group-260-watt-v2-r-spec-quantum-board-diy-kit Autos can also take lower light as well. maybe try a bit higher or lowering the feed. Test one thing at a time or you wont know what one worked out for you. Given that PPFD maps readings and assuming they are true. 24" should be fine, I'm leaning toward lowering the feed a bit. Check your runoff if that's applicable and confirm PH and EC are stable, then go from there, Best of Luck!

Thanks m0use. I actually just stepped up my feed to 1.4 EC yesterday thinking I was still deficient. I’ll just let that go for now but if it seems to be burning I’ll dilute it back. I am still shifting lights around but I did have the 260 rspec and then a viparspectra XS2000 for the other plant. I am switching them out to 2x HLG 200 diablos today which should be more suited for the ~4x3 space I am trying to utilize. I was using Photone to measure ppfd but didn’t trust the readings vs what the ppfd maps say for my lights. I think I should have trusted it since it was reading well over 1000 ppfd (1600 at the highest flower).

Magnesium or iron deficiency, maybe both. Easily treated with a dose or two ofsoluble trace elements, available from any garden centre.

I personally think that's a phosphorous deficiency(new growth yellows only) . I have a random bud or 2 doing a slight claw likesmallwr.leaves kinda drooping that but it's too much nitrogen(it's dark greeb from my micro etc .. this tho is new growth yellow no claw ....heat stress and leaves usually point up .. slumping or clawing is usually gna be defficiency or overdose lol .. it's tricky to say but because the colour and no clawing I'm gna say she wants some phosphorous and nitrogen! .. maybe even doesn't like its temperature in their
