hey there Catova, it maybe looks beautiful, but i'm sorry to say it's actually P deficiency, this you can see from the discoloration starting on the leafs . Just add a PK booster or a (diluted) banana peel tea if you're going natural. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Yellowing leaves Leaves seem kinda yellow on one hand. The bottom right hand corner one looks like she needs CalMag but I'm not sure. All the photos have been taken under the same light. Used to over dose the nutrients to prevent burn but continually gave them 1mL/L calmag each.

Dry yellow/brown tips, starting from the oldest leaves What's wrong with the plant this week? Many leaves have dry yellow/brown tips, starting from the oldest leaves. Is it some kind of nutrient deficiency, and how do I fix it? I tested the pH of the drainage water and it was 6.8, I've flushed it down to 6.2 now.

Long battle with deficiencies.For a week i have been fighting deficiencies , the ph seems fine. Part of the problem was fixed by calmag but how it seems to be something else, maybe someone can help me identify.mid to top leaves affected. Also overall heat could be a problem (as temps outside rise)
