Week 8 (4 weeks into flowering) - Possible Nitrogen / Cal-Mag issue?Plants show signs of what i assume to be a deficiency. Stopped feeding nitrogen Week 7 according to schedule. Symptoms are not on every leaf but some the upper foliage. Yellowing, burnt tips and rusty spots. My guess is lack of Cal-Mag & Nitrogen. Is my guess correct?Leaves. Tips - Burnt

low pH problemsI discovered that I had irrigated with water at pH 3.5 for at least 5 days.
yesterday I used water at pH 5.7 and today I think it will increase to 6, but I noticed that burns are already starting to appear so should I continue like this and hope for the best or do a root wash?6y ago

I found out my tap water was 9.8. I'm about to water tomorrow with PH adjusted water, I just didn't know whether or not that could be the issue with the tips turning yellow? Bigger plant now too,just not as bad Basically will the soil adjust since it's a premix in between 6.3-6.8Week 3

Nutrient lockout or deficiencyDie unter Planze im Bild ist seit ein paar Tagen hell obwohl ich letztes mal schon mehr gedüngt hab. Habe mit EC 1.5 / Ph 6.2 gegossen. Im runoff kam Ec von 3.5 raus, es war aber nur sehr wenig runoff deswegen find ich 3.5 eigentlich in ordnung. Blatt spitzen sind aber auffällig.Leaves. Tips - Burnt

Possibly Potassium Deficient? Based on ALL the pics I could find, but not sure.I noticed these brown splotches and leaf edges on one area bud and pistils of my Orange Sherbet last night. Based on what I can find online, this might be potassium deficiency?
This is mostly on one spot near darkest edge when tent closed. Thanks!2y ago
