Those links don't work thus you need to upload to the server.. It will work .. I do it all the time..

Got it, here ya go!
Sorry for the shitty quality but like I said, I was rushing out the door this morning and just wanted to check up on them...

No, that is not fertilizer burn.

Any ideas? Like I said it also looks like a late-stage Mg defiency

It does look like Mg deficiency. The idea is to figure out if it's locked out or if this strain needs more. You need to evaluate your nutrient regimen, check for salt buildup, consider pH, and watering techniques. Often the mineral is present but unusable by the plant. This can be due to nutrient imbalance (too much of any mineral), compacted or too wet soil, extreme pH, or a number of other things.
A foliar spray of epsom salts will correct the Mg deficiency, but the damage to the leaves will not reverse. New growth should look healthier.
Good luck!

Thanks for the awesome reply, I think this may be due to over-feeding/Over-Watering since this girl has been fed almost daily with full regimen of nutes. I think scaling down to 50% recommended dosage should be enough, she has already been flushed twice since the problem was first noticed and the damage doesn't seem to be spreading anyore...

The epsom salts recommendation is definitely worth looking into...

Not based on those pix, they're a bit unclear to me. It kind of looks like a Ca- in that we're looking at necrotic spotting on what appears to be an upper leaf, but I can't really say for sure without knowing more about the grow and seeing more of the plant more clearly.

But, let's say it is an upper leaf. That disqualifies any mobile nutrient for the most part as those deficiencies occur on lower leaves to mid-plant (classic tell for K issue is that it's occurring mid-plant). We're back to immobile minerals then. Does anything else resemble Ca? Not really IME.

Going with Ca, we have to consider not *just* how the plant is being fed, but what its environment is like. We need to know whether the vapor pressure deficit (a measurement of transpiration... potential I suppose we could call it), which is the interplay of temperature in relation to relative humidity, is within acceptable ranges. Why is this important? It is the heart of the plant. Transpiration is what moves everything through plant tissues, so if VPD parameters are very far out of range, you may see problems such as poor movement of Ca through plant tissues. Or something like that (honestly, the botany stuff gets a little heady for one without the formal education and there are others who have a better grasp on how to explain it than I).

A very good post on transpiration has recently been posted up, but IIRC there's some good discussion of VPD ranges and such in the thread in my sig line, The Charts.

Sorry for the wait, but I'must back with new photos and more info.

So the problem hasn't spread much and the plant is still healthy. Temps are a little high, between 25°C and 30° , the weather has been unpredictable lately and the grow space is small. Humidity staying under 40% and over 25%.

I ran a ph test on run off this morning, the reading was as usual around 6.2.

Below are some photos, I selected the most damaged leaf for examination;

Go to this post and chart your VPD (vapor pressure deficit). I'm still kind of leaning towards Ca-, but can't be certain without knowing where on the plant this occurred. I see a slight indication of poor P utilization (the petiole) as well.

The Charts--Helpful charts for making nutrient deficiency diagnoses; Vapor Pressure Deficit Chart, VPD Made Easy

In my opinion, right now you need to correct those parameters. If you look at the chart posted you'll see that you're falling in a red zone where transpiration, and thus movement of water and nutrients, is hindered. That could explain what you're observing. If you can't concurrently lower temps, at least get the humidity raised.

Thanks, first time I read about VPD, I'll be sure to follow the advice.
