Leaves keep turning brown and yellow

It all begann with what I thought was light burn. I then considered it CalMag deficiency. Giving it CalMag did not stop it. My current guess is too low pH due to strip inaccuracies, so I gave it around 8 today instead. What do you recon, why could it keep getting worse?

Phosphorous deficiency. Remember........what is showing in the leaves now, is a direct reflection of what was happening in the root zone 2 weeks ago. Anything you change will take 10-14 days to show the results in the leaves...........it won't happen in a day or three.

PH....WHEN I FEED MY PLANTS I PUT IT JUST LIKE .2 LOWER THAN WHAT PH I AM GOING FOR BECAUSE IN 24 HOURS IT WILL RIZE UP FAST, THEN SEEMS TO LEVEL BACK OUT ON ITS OWN, IF I PH RIGHT AT A PERFECT PH THEN IT GOES HIGH FOR ME

(PLEASE READ THIS) (I CAN SAVE YOUR PLANT 100% GARENTEE) Your soil ph is to low 100% the fox is super simple take the plant to the bathtub if possible I assume your tap water is between 7 and 8.5 or so correct? Run like 10 gallons of regular tap water thru the soil right b4 lights out. Then mix up 1 gallon with nutrients use whatever flowering/booom nutrient you have don’t mix up a super dose or anything just whatever the bottle says as a recommendation for 1gallon. (How ever many ml per gallon of nutrients you put in the water add the same ml per gallon of ph up to the water) I don’t know how many plants you have but then give each plant 1/2 gallon of the mixture I just described above.

looks like a potassium or phosphorus deficiency. i keep telling everyone this but alot of the time its your water source. people dont think about the chlorine toxicity and it looks similiar to a calcium ir magnesium deficiency. i personally have to boil my water because of the chloramine in it. its harder to get rid of than chlorine. but ever since i started growimg again, ive done this and ive had less leaf necrosis.
