Seeing color changing on some tips

Hi everyone!

Can someone help me understand why the tips are changing colors like this? New grower here and just trying to understand. Thank you.

Burned tips tend to be nitrogen toxicity. What soil are you in, what is your runoff PPM, and what product are you feeding it (if any at this point)? Do you know the runoff pH?

It’s not too bad, so should be easy to correct. Don’t worry about those bottom leaves. It’s normal for them to yellow and fall off.

@Mm2021 Painted her nails lol!! She found a hot spot in the soil and she’s showing an excess of N. It’s just a threshold but don’t push her past it or the N will burn her up. :+1:t2:

Hi @Fieldofdreams,
Thank you for your insights!
How do you mean by “don’t push her pass it” and its a ‘threshold’?

It means you are pushing her to the edge of overfeeding.

@GreggT with the gotchabackbro!! Ty sir!!

Yeah what he :point_up_2: said lol. When you see the tips burn it’s a sign that they’ve reached their current maximum intake of N. More and that burn can be fatal for the plant. Detrimental for certain. I like to push them here though. I keep hearing less is more but I’m having a difficult time not helicopter dad-ing these girls lol. I hover. It’s a wonder I don’t overwater too lol.

Hi everyone, here is an update:



She looks better but wondering why some leaves have brown droopy tips. Can you guys help me understand here.

I have a similar issue on a few I’m growing. I’d love to hear others thoughts. Originally I thought it was simply the FFOF was super hot but we haven’t outgrown it yet lol.

They look beautiful! How look did they take to grow? I dropped my seed in the soil at 12/7/22.

Also, do you happen to know when I should start switching my lighting to 12/12? Currently it’s at a 18/6.

This tent is all autos. A lot of growers wait until the plant shows sex which can be 6-8 wks.
