Yellow / brown leaves tips; should I worry ?
Cockpitlouloustarted grow question 2 years ago
Hey ! My 3 plants (same strain) are showing yellow / brown leaves tips for a few days, and I'm not sure what it could be. I'm thinking mild potassium deficiency, or perhaps a bit too much nutes ?FYI, I'm strictly following Biobizz chart, every watering. Should I worry ? Thanks !

The brown tips are the result from overfeeding it called nutriet burn you can search it up. Flush your soil with water with the right pH (no nutrients) and use 2 times the pot volume in water. Let the soil dry for 2-3 days. And after you can continue feeding like you did before but use a quarter less to prevent nutrient burning.

Dealing with Nutrient Burn and Salt Build-UpI've observed salt build-up and nutrient burn in my plants recently. I've taken action by flushing and removing 60% of the affected leaves. Now, I'm considering whether to remove the remaining affected leaves and when to proceed with top dressing. Please advise.Week 6

Deficiency or excessHello colleagues,please advise me, what could it be? the tips of the leaves are sometimes lighter, and the holey leaves? I didn't find any pests in the tent. I use the AH set. Once a week I only rinse with water with enzymes. Can you think of anything?Leaves. Tips - Burnt

'Claws' on tips just after flowering started. Previous answers help - it is a bit worse. I keep a perfect VPD. What should I do? Flower wouldnt fI'm confused. For the first 3w I used LED as instructed 30-40cm, I had ~43cm,100%dim, everything was fine. When the bloom started yellow claws appeared and still there, maybe a bit worse, with 53cm and 75%dim. Mostly on BPP, one more plant showed her claws today aswell. 😓Leaves. Edges burnt

Older leaves are yellowing, brown/red rusty spots, dying tissue, red stems.Older leaves have brown/red rusty spots and looks like dying tissue in between the veins.
Burnt tips, and yellowing leaves.
The soil was really dry and my PH meter was 0.4 too high.
I gave each plant 3L of water with EC: 0.0 PH: 6.4 to check runoff.
Runoff was PH: 6.1 EC: 0.8a year ago
