To much heat and to much light maybe. It’s light stress/heat burn with a little to much nutrients maybe. Stop using calmag if you do that

Can I have some advice on the leaves?
Hi guys, does my plant have an issue with the nutrients I am feeding it? Or is this just leaf burn? Many thanks in advance. I think it's lacking in nitrogen because of the yellow leaves. I am feeding it quite a bit

Twisted growth. Lanky bud sites.
What's wrong with this flower site? This is the main stem. The leaves have been pretty small for the last few days and they don't seem to have a lot of vitality.

Discoloration on leaves. Why?
I was looking at a closeup view of an overhead pic I took yesterday and noticed some slight tan/bron color along the sides of the 2 bigger leaves. I'm wondering why. Nutrient burn? Sulphur deficiency? Something else? Any thoughts?

Lack of or abundance of nutrients?
Shes doing really well but I noticed some of the leaves starting to get a little yellow so I stopped giving her nutrients and have just been giving her water for at least a week or two. She still acts like shes getting too much though? GDP auto x gumberry auto is the strain.

What is your best advice for helping plants look great and not dried out on any edges?
Brown edges got me down. I'm sure its just humidity. I've been adjusting the light. Could it be more? whats your best seasoned advice to keep those edges looking crispy... (Good) ? not in the wrong way!

Autoflower, deficiency or light stress? End of week 8.
Good time of the day. Having following problems with my autoflower (see pictures) which is at the end of week 8. Plant had some light stress before, could that be a consequence of that? Or could that be nutrient deficiency? Looking forward to hearing from you guys!

Necrotic spots
The last day or two I’ve had a bunch of necrotic spots pop up on the lower 3 sets of fan leaves. She is at node #5 now and starting to put out pistils. Is this phosphorus deficiency? I changed the res as it was close to a week anyways. Thanks all for the help. Happy Growing!

Bio Grow burn vs Bio Grow boost
Hi, it seems like she keeps getting nute burns as soon as i give her Bio Grow, even at half dosage (1ml/L). She has only 10 more days of veg and i wanted to boost her, what if i stop giving Bio Grow altogether until flowering? Is the tradeoff worth it? No burn but less growing?

What do these yellow markings on the leave tips mean?
What do these yellow tips on the leaves mean? Are my lights to close? Looks like light burn to me and have adjusted the lights up 10cm for now. Still wanted to make sure since I thought they need more lights during flower. Thanks heaps

Discolored, burnt and curled up tips on higher leaves
Several symptoms, always on tips of higher leaves : they are discolored/burnt or burnt/curled up. LED @40cm (deemed 70% of 300W) and I just gave them the 2nd flowering feeding, 4 days after first one (pots were very light). I was planing to start compost tea... What should I do ?

Excess or Defiancy?
Some leaves from the top of my biggest plant, Frisian Dew, turn yellow and brown. The others don't show this behavior. The plant is in week 22 and still needs approx. 4-6 weeks until harvest. The plant pot is fully rooted up to the surface.

Nutrient burn or under watering?
several leaves getting yellow at the tips. have not made any major changes to the environment in over 2 weeks. Water ph is 6.3. I am leaning towards under watering since the bigger of the 2 seems more affected. How would a more experienced grower proceed?
