Are edges burnt and why if so?

The highest and main cola has a couple of leaves with such strangely-coloured tips and edges. Is it a sign of light or nutrient burn? The weird thing is that only one cola has it so far and just a few leaves on it, not even all of them. She is on her 4th week of flowering.

Hello There- I would adjust your watering schedule. Frequent, small waterings cause root issues and lots of nute buildup in the soil. I think most of the problems you've seen on your plant in your diary are related to watering. For a 5 gallon pot, you should be watering (IMO) 1+gallon (or 4liters) at a time and then at least 3-4 days before the next watering. Of course...have to pay attention to the plant. Some get very thirsty.

More than one thing can cause that, so you're best seeing how it progresses. If mindflowers is right, that's either genetics cooler temperatures (68F or below) occurring at some point in daily cycle. If it's definitely red/purple coloring, then it's just genetics / cool temps. They look black to me, but photos are deceiving.
