Week 7 Burnt Leaves?
You can see in week 7 that the right plant has some underdeveloped/burnt leaves and yellowing towards the top. Does this look more like light burn or a nutrient problem? I fed with Root's Bloom at the beginning of flower.

What are my leaves telling me?
Is this light burn? Nutrient deficiency/excess? It is only happening on the top leaves, the lower leaves are just fine. The light is rather close to the plant, but she is outgrowing my tent. Thanks in advance for the help! I really appreciate it. 😀

I was making reckless mistake for exposing the plant into too much light causing burnt tips during seedling stage going through day 5. Light intensity was at 75% with the height of 28 inches.Any recommend on recovering these baby ASAP ?

Repot today or wait?
Planned to repot into a 20L pot today, so I did a test unpotting to check the roots etc, heard some minor root tear and put it back in its little pot immediately - within 1 hour I noticed signs of transplant shock. Ordered recharge. Should I wait to transplant?

What are these yellow tips on my leaves from? Have fed it water with organic nutes once to twice a week, the only time it was given pure water was a few days ago. I am using recommended doses. Could this be nute burn?

What do these yellow markings on the leave tips mean?
What do these yellow tips on the leaves mean? Are my lights to close? Looks like light burn to me and have adjusted the lights up 10cm for now. Still wanted to make sure since I thought they need more lights during flower. Thanks heaps

Tips turning yellow?
Tips of leaves on "top" of plant got some yellowish tips? Lights about 28inchs away don't think it's light burn. Had maybe too heavy feeding yesterday, even tho it's starting top down. Anything popping out to anyone?

Yellowing tips
Hi, I'm a newbie grower here. I have an autoflower that is nearly weeks old. I have started to notice some yellowing tips on the leaves. I have been feeding it some vitasol and pm13/14 as well as watering every two days. The growing medium is worm casing compost and perlite.

Brown/burnt spots on 1 plant only
Hello, D49 (out of 70 theoritically) same strain, same nutes but only one plant looks affected (top right). Looks like it started 2 or 3 days ago. Could it be nute burns ou some kind of lockout? If yes should I flush or could i only give tap water for a few waterings?
