Looks like to much food, but could also be to little. Or lights are to close/bright. Hard to pinpoint it without knowing the environment your growing in. How your feeding. What kind of light and how far it is away from the canopy.

Nutrient burn/Lockout? PH Low So 1 of my plants is having a hard time in my low PH Soil I'm seeing the start of brown tips on newer leaf growth. I was wondering if I should water frequently and keep the soil more wet with higher PH water or let it dry out and slow the nute uptake? and risk high PH at roots?

Deficiency/Light Stress Issues What else can I do? Brown curled tips and spots on older fan leaves climbing up towards main cola. Flushed with pH’d RO yesterday, but was only able to get pH to 6.7, also added small dose CalMag at end of flush. Light wattage has also been reduced by half for the last week.

What to do? Leaves are getting worse.Had some light strain earlier on, but now im leaning toward a deficiency. Been feeding on a low-dose flora series schedule with clean ph water for every other feed. Just had clean water yesterday and nutes 3 days before. Dry out between feeds. Nitrogen? Calmag? Other?

General concerns about the plant health and expectations from her.Will nute burn have a big affect on my final yield? Are my buds likely to increase much in size? Leaves discolouring normal at this stage? Does she look likely to produce just popcorn bud at this point? Can I do anything about it? Also not many leaves on the plant?

I have stardawg auto seedling. Sprouted 2 days behind my other seedlings. Casing was stuck, and when it finally came off, one of the cotyledon leaves was broken. It is still growing very slowly compared to the others and the second fan leaves look shriveled. Any suggestions?

Leaves slowly dying. Nute burn? Heat Burn? Overwatering?Leaves are slowly dying on two of my plants. Starting to appear higher up at the tip. What could it be? PH, nute burn, too much light, overwatered? I may have overfed: 0,75mL Power Roots and Alga grow every two days since they were 10. Is it really bad?

Is it nutrients? Light?What can this be? The stem is red, and I thought it could be over lighting (I had 2 LEDs of 200 W each), so I removed one of it. But now I am also wondering that it can be nutrients, no? If so, how can I solve it? Let me know what you think. It's an autoflower - 7 weeek.
