Does anyone know what this Lemon Cherry Cookie might have? I assume it's too much nutritiens because of the "clawing" of some leafs, but it also has brighter green newer leafs, it's in a biobizz light mix, so I thought she can get the dosage by biobizz plan from week 2-1/2 on

Looking at pot and state, yes some nitrogen toxicity could be seen of fresh leaves, theirs edges gets too dark too early - sign of toxicity. You can get it not only from overfeeding, but with bad watering regime. Watering without run off, watering not enough to saturate pot and thats why you have dry pockets in it. Water in intervals, divide all amount to 4-5 parts and water those parts every 5 min or so, that will prevent a lot. Water amount such, that your wet dry cycle would be 3-5 days. Lift pots to understand is it right time to water. Far from any huge damage or stress, low humidity in veg and big wind can cause it too. Google : "weed wind damage" for more info about it. Few tunes up and all will be good.

Bright green new growth is not always a deficiency. e.g. too much p or k can cause that - thin blades with chlorosis is a symptom of too much p or k.. to discern between the two you'd want to refer to how much of each you have been providing. More than a couple excess nutes can cause clawing without burned tips, like N or Ca. Symptoms on leves are not discrete. It more often takes some cross referencing to eliminate possibilities and diagnose correctly. The instructions from fertilizer companies are often created to maximize the sale as opposed to maximizing your results. I find their ratios rarely follow existing knowledge and research. Many try to play mad scientist and use their own esoteric ratios of nutes, then you get fewer plants happy with it and that fules the idea that these plants want drastically different things and most of them do not. i don't know if that is soil or soilless. it's coco with a bunch of slow release organic nutrients ... so it's virtually impossible to know what levels of each nutrient are potentially causing the issue. your guess is as good as someone else's. trial and error is all you have. make an educated guess, adjust the formula and observe for the next 7-14 days how it reacts... over time you'll hone a good formula. You can cut this learning curve down by paying more attention to the ratio and concentration of what you are feeding to make educated adjustments. Sometimes a buildup or deficiency can take weeks even a month or more to display symptoms on the leaves... the cumulative effect over time is what usually screws with people because they tend to think the cause is the most recent event.

The clawing could be from overwatering. Excess nutrients would normally burn the tips of the leaves.
