I noticed this starting this morning, the pH was 6.3 and 210 ppm. The water was about 7-10 days old. So I figure water change time?

No your pH is too high. 5.8 is for vegging. Your ppm is pretty low. I start around 500 ppm,I also run first solution 3 to 5 weeks.

Leave Burn or Disease?
Can someone tell me what this is? Looks like the leave is burned (maybe water on the leave did that?) It looks like it’s causing the plant to grow way slower.

Nute burn or something else?
My middle and top leaves are yellowing from the tip and edge inward, is this the nutrient burn or another issue altogether? Runoff PH was 5.9 and ppm was 700.

It's day 17(Dec9) and my leaves have a strange discoloration. I can't seem to find out the problem. I have uploaded a picture of how it looks in detail Under week3. Only the older leaves have it with the oldest having the most discoloration.

Deficiency or Burn?
All these girls in manure compost/perlite mix. Healthy through veg with minor Magnesium deficiency in the beginning. Been feeding 3ml/gal calmag occasionally, and 1/2 cup banana tea I made 1-2x a week. Waterings have been at 6.5, just lowered to 6.2. About 1/4 gal/plant 1-2 days.

Does this look like minor leaf burn, too many nutrients or something else?
I believe two of the plants developed minor leaf burn. One has white streaks on the middle and outer portions of several leaves, and the other has a rust, reddish stripe parallel to the center of several leaves. I’ve attached pictures above. Thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Looks to me like potassium deficiency leading to calcium and magnesium deficiency also... Any other suggestions?
