Is this nutrient burn?

I'm pretty sure this is nutrient burn. Using hot soil with a bit of extra worm castings on the top layer. The pH was also too high (approximately 8) but has since been corrected (now 6). Next layer on top came in nice and healthy. Can someone confirm there's nothing to do here?

It's not actually nute burn - that is indicated by brown leaf TIPS... it looks more like a potassium deficiency but I wouldn't go doing anything about it right now... since your pH was off the scale that you've now corrected and the next layer of leaves came in without any issues, I'd say you're in the clear... just keep that pH under control!! Good luck

Worm Castings will never burn your plants unless you add a bunch of stuff to the castings. Just a heads up about worm castings. Always assume a problem like this is due to pH. My troubleshooting sequence for plants goes like so: 1- check pH of run-off 2- check pH of Water 3- smell soil and check roots if you can to make sure there's no root rot or problems 4- stick your finger as far as you can into the soil to check moisture 5- check underside of leaves for pests 6- check light distance and intensity 7- Check relative humidity 8- Check temperature This path usually tells me what I need to know by the time I get to step 8. I hope it helps.

That was through a massive ph fluctuation. Your ph was well outa wack and it got effected. It won't repair itself so just keep your eye on un effected leaves to make sure you sorted out the ph properly.
