Nute or light burn?
tamino
started grow question 4y ago
Hi guys, does this look like a nute or light burn? I’ve just changed my fertiliser and the ladies have grown quite a bit. This only affects some bits of new growth so I’m a bit unsure😐

Best to link a diary to the question. Lot of unknown variables. What Buz is saying below is correct with leaf tips curling. Good Luck!

Guessing its nuteburn, if it was lightburn you get spots on the leaves and they curl up like tacoshells

Is this due to the sun and hot weather?
Some parts of some leaves are looking like they're burnt or something. Is this due to the sun? Or do I have another problem? It has been extremely hot last week (around 35 degrees all week). And the plant has been in direct sunlight (I've moved it into the shade yesterday)

Burnt looking seedling
What's going on with my #2 seedling? I thought it could be light burn and raised my light by 4" but the odd coloration on the tips has gotten worse 18hr later. It also doesn't seem to be drinking whats in the coco yet so I'm cautious about feeding.

CalMag or PK issue?
What is she telling me? Before I was thinking of a CalMag issue (upper leafs have "burned" tips and get yellowish). So I added it to the reservoir. Is it CalMag or maybe a PK issue, that resolves in a CalMag issue? See my diary for more details.

Hello guys! Overall the plant looks light green/yellowish and pretty small, with short internodes and bottom leaves with burnt and curled up tips. I give water every 3/4 days and commonly suggested fertilzers quantities. How can I let her recover and get bigger? Thanks :)

Crispy bottom leaves (tip)
Need help!! Tip of bottom leaves are kinda drying out (crispy dry) and are a little bit curled down. Not sure if it’s improper ph, too much nutes or overwatering. Top leaves are fine, I dunno where I was lacking. Help a brother out, what do you guys think?

Tip of leaves burnt
Has been vegetating for a while and growing nice, only noticed these around a week ago and dont seem to be going away. It looks like a nutrient burn? Been feeding it pH perfect Bloom, Grow and Micro 3 times a week (4ml a litre), so didn't think it would be a deficiency. Thanks!!

Seedlings struggling
This is day 10 since they popped out and it just seems as if my seedlings are stunted. I kept an 85w CFL about 10cm from their tops for the first week and then raised it up to about 15cm for the next few days. They had humidity domes. Temp was 20°C-24 in day

Lockout? Can I remedy this late in the game?
I think this is more than a K deficiency. I think I'm getting lockout. And a lot of it. She's an auto-flower, and I grow hydroponically. Can I even remedy it at this point?
