Mid week 5ish, mature fan leaves and some newish smaller leaves yellowing starting from tip. Had nitrogen toxicity in its early life.. Ph at 6.5 watering about 8-10 oz every other day or 3. Just did a top dress on 12/29 only 1.5 tbsp of power bloom and .75ml fish shit.

Nutrients are classified as either immobile or mobile depending on if it can be moved around the plant once it’s been fully absorbed. Mobile nutrients are stored in older leaves and can be moved around the plant wherever it’s needed. Immobile nutrients stay close to where they were originally deposited. Deficiencies & excess of mobile nutrients will appear in older growth and leaves first. Where as, deficiencies & excess of immobile nutrients will appear in new growth first usually at the top of the plant. Once you understand the difference and which nutrients are mobile and immobile, it makes it easier to diagnose & fix deficiencies. Whenever you suspect a deficiency, always check your pH first and ensure that it is in the correct range. If it isn’t within the correct range, it won’t be able to absorb some nutrients. So, you could be treating a deficiency, but if the pH is off, it won’t be able to absorb the nutrient still. If your pH is in the correct range, you can now try to figure out what’s going on. NPK the big 3 (& magnesium) are all mobile nutrients so the plant can take nutrients from old growth and use it for new growth if there is a deficiency. Since growth is only affected at bottom tells us it's a mobile nutrient. As the plant is taking from old growth to provide for new. Nitrogen deficient. Make sure you are de chlorinating your water for 24 hours prior to watering. Also. Top dressings can take time to breakdown, make foliar spray with warm water a sprinkle of hydrogen peroxide and some water soluble nitrogen fertilizer of choice. Spray and apply as needed for quick temporary remedy until things can balance back out. Curiously how did you deal with the toxicity earlier in its life?

Feeeeeed she's hungry she's loosing her color and a beginning of p and k deficiency. Plants will show deficiencies in flowering from week 3 to 5 where the big need is. I just had 3 plants do the exact thing burning tips etc most swore it was overnute but it was under. Went up on pk boosters and it fixed. I can tell you by certainty that you have a major p deficiency because of the purple/red stripes on the stalks ;) happy growing

Ocean forest soil and previous advice on here suggest I let it ride it wasn't going to affect it... I did a sort of mini flush watered till about 20 % runoff with 0 ppm 6.5 water. Run off was 1600 ppm I think..

What are you in soil or coco? Could not tell you if your to much(lockout) or to little with your nutrients, but the last 2 picks I see the tips of your leaves drastically curling down( the claw ) Also the ones that are healthy are really dark green, both signs of N toxicity(Too much). The yellowing and burnt tips to me looks like a lack of nutrients, My guess would be your missing some micro nutrient's(cal, mag, surfer, iron..... I don't see any listed for power bloom and not sure if fish shit has any in it.

NPK industries do excellent water soluble nutrient packages of nitrogen great for foliar.

Power bloom does have nitrogen in it so I may have just added to my already existing problem. Either way I'd like to learn whats going on!
