It looks like a definite nitrogen deficiency... if you had linked this question with a diary, we would be in a better position to advise you but on the surface, you need to definitely add nitrogen!

Another round of Name That Deficiency 5 weeks into flower and this plant seems to be the problem child but she’s also the one showing the most growth. PH is 6 on her, was originally 6.2 but was having a manganese deficiency so went down to 6.0. Gave 3/4 of recommended nutrients in last feeding. Not sure what to do.

N or P deficiency?Need help to understand if this is P or N deficiency. It's on the lowest fan leaves, one is more pronounced than the other, and it's mostly on one side. Stems and veins look like they're giving hints of P def but from what I searched leaves look like it could be N def.

Possible overfeeding nutes?Could someone possibly identify the issue on that one leaf? I had another like that a bit worse that where the edges started to curl. They were fan leaves so I ended up removing them as they were a bit worse off. Doing much better now, only guess is too much nutes.

Dark tips it seems to me that the tips of the leaves have a very dark color, it looks like an excess of nitrogen but in three weeks I have never fertilized and the only additions to my biobizz light mix are a sprinkling of guano kalong and 10% of worm humus biobizz.

Is this turning purple from temp change So it looks like what I thought was a brown spot (under the grow light), appears to be purple when I pulled it out to get a better look and stake it down. I did switch the light to something cooler, could this be from temp dropping. Not worried yet, just curious. Thanks
