The yellow tips is from nutrient burn. Seems like you went just a little over with them but overall they look awsome.

Recommend ph 6.2 your in flowering. The straight burnt tips is potassium deficiency. Potassium is best absorbed in coco at 6.2 ph. 6.3 your plant will start going in lock out. Your run off ph is very important to monitor.

bottom leaves yellow Helloo So today I've noticed that the bottom leaves are yellow. I don't really think it is a problem since I think the reason is that they don't get enough light because are covered by the bigger leaves on top. But it's better to ask since I'm a newbie. What do you think?

Leaves are turning yellow during flowering - is this an overwaring issue?About 1,5 week into flowering the leaves have turned yellow, especially on the outside. The leaves in the middle are still oke, lower older leaves are dry. Could this be overwatering or something else? I gave around 1L/day, coming from around 0.5-0.7l/day the week before.
