New grower what does she need?

[Bretzy420]

So I'm new to growing and this and my other autoflower are starting to not look good. Both are in week 2 day 48 of flower ocean forest top dressed with Dr.Earth all purpose organic day 30. Day 44 I started to to notice some leaves showing deficiencies so I made a compost tea. I used Dr earth flower girl worm castings at 1/4 strength just incase the all purpose hadn't broken down completely yet. This plant is turning yellow on alot of leaves and has burnt tips. I'm kinda lost on what to do because I don't know if it's nutrient burn or it's lacking nutrients? Any help is appreciated!

How much are you watering? Also have you inspected the leaves real close for any pests?

Are you pH-ing your water?

Yep no pests I can find thankfully I use diatomaceous earth after top watering. I have the tray2grow system from autopot so I only top water when I dressed with Dr earth and used the compost tea. I was instructed to shut the system off for 24 hours before to let the soil dry so I wasn't over watering them. I'm lost there growing but slowly and now this one's got burnt tips even on the new growth.

Yes but I have one of the cheap ph meters and I don't trust it I have a apera coming in today! The ph reads 5.8 right now.

She needs the correct ph for a soil grow. Adjust to 6.3-6.6 and use the entire range. Problem solved I’m betting.

Having a reliable pH meter was a game changer in my growing regimen. Made a big difference.
