Hi I am totally new to this. Live in mass so when came legal ordered purple haze female seeds. Planted 4 seeds in mid November and feel like I am doing something wrong. One of the plabts started yellowing on the tips of the leaves rest of plants are fine. All planted in 5 gallon buckets with organic soil humidity around 35 to 43 percent. I attached pictures. I’m so new at this not sure what to ask or give for info!!
PH of runoff or solution in reservoir? I don’t know what ph is? I have plants in 5 gallon buckets I check night and day for soil moisture and there holes in bottom of buckets
What is strength of nutrient mix? It is organic soil I have not added any of my own nutrients
Indoor or Outdoor: indoor
Light system, size? I have a 600w led light and 75 watt full spectrum light and 2 28 w full spectrum lights
Temps; Day, Night: we have heater in room we set at 85 degrees during day from 6am to midnight at midnight turn heat down to 75 but tempature reading says about 65 to 73 during day and night goes to about 62. Room is in basement so hard to keep heat up
Humidity; Day, Night: day humidity around 43 and night about 30
Ventilation system; Yes, No,
Yes we have fan
AC, Humidifier, De-humidifier:no

This is more than likely a sign of nutrient burn so I would stop feeding that plant nutrients until you can provide the information other’s have requested and get better guidance. To correct it will require you to be able to measure PH and PPM for the plant. Do you have those meters? If so, which kind and when was the last time you calibrated them?
No sweat! It is possible , if you have not been pHing your water then it could actually be the nutrients in the soil are not being made available to your plants. Get us the info and we will try and figure out your issue before it becomes a problem.
Scott I usually feed every third day especially at first. A lot if the souls out for growing have a lot of goodys in them to feed the young plants with just water. And a mistake I seemed to make at first was thinking to keep the soil saturated all the time when for me it actually seemed better if they were moist in the pot and not soggy on top. It doesn’t like to be soaked all the time. Try to let them dry a bit then feed with straight Ph water for a week and see if it clears. It real easy to over feed young plants. I hope this helps and btw this is just from my personal experience.
Just straight water that you get to the correct PH which I like between 6.0 & 6.5 for soil. So weather your water is a higher Ph or Lower PH you take PH down or PH up to adjust your water PH to the 6.0-6.5 range and just use that as needed for a week to kinda flush it a bit the start your feeding against a slower rate or less nutrient. Like I said I like to feed every 3 days with soil . Once your plant gets bigger you will need to increase the amount of the food it gets. After you mix your nutrient you always always need to adjust your Ph to 6.0-6.5 Hope that helps you
When you use PH up or PH down to adjust your nutrient solution to 6.0 -6.5 range for soil . You will need a PH tester found at any grow or even farm store. And then test your water your using after you put your nutrients in it then you adjust the ph to 6.0-6.5 and you still adjust it if your just using straight water. You want your soil to have a ph around 6.5 for your plant to take in food like it supposed to. I know it’s confusing but buy the testers and the up and down and try it a few times before you ruin your food solution
Do you follow what @timmyv324 is telling you? I’m not a scientist either but the optimal pH for soil is 6.5 and for other mediums it varies between 5.8 and 6.2
May I recommend both a pH and TDS meter and calibration fluids
These are just examples. You can also find them locally
