To me it looks like phosphorus deficiency. Most likely due to pH too high.

This looks like something I had before when I overwatered some of the leaf tips started dieing like that. Best to have a bit of a dry cycle in the medium so its not so waterlogged. then anaerobic bacteria flourish and upset the dynamic sometimes cause rot or PH swings. Good Luck!

Burned upper leaf edges Hi! Dark spots appeared on some upper leaves overnight. I don't think this is the cause, but I did a pretty heavy defoliation the day before. the spots only affects leaf margins and makes the tips curl up. The spots are brown, burned and slightly purplish. what could this be?

Is this pH related?Hello, mates! Anyone knows what this could be? Searching I found that it could be pH related. I use pH controller from ferts (pH perfect from advanced nutrients) since the beginning, so I think it's odd that it could be a pH issue. p.s. 3.5 weeks of flowering Thanks 🙏 🙏

Maui Waui CA deficiency?Can anyone confirm or guess at the kind of deficiency my plant is having? I am not sure if "hard water" (instead of RO so far) is the right answer or if I need some special sauce... Thank you!

Brown stains on leaves edges The top leaves on my GG#4 started to get brown on the edges. Initially I thought it was light burn, but the stains kept progressing after I readjusted the light distance. Is it a nut burn?
