I'm thinking Phosphorus, my PH meter may not be reading correct. Am I just holding onto hope it's not a deficiency? Only started about a few days ago. At the end of week 3 flowering

early fade, it wouldnt happen to be a terple or sugarcane from In-House Genetics (purple pheno's)? early fade can be a deficiency yes, what are you giving her for nutrition, make sure balanced feeding but mildly higher P-K, Ive grown a lot of IHG gear in the past, the purple pheno's leaves go purple early and full purple usually wk 5/6 nearest the top buds. ( I feed mega crop 2 part - end of week 3 Im usually balanced/equal parts A/B but I add PK booster (no nitrogen) in flower. remember if shes healthy with good vigor wks 5/6 will be her heaviest feeding weeks. good luck

This is not an early fade, this is light-burning the shit out of your plants.

Yea the leaves curling up on the ends and the bright tips are signs, also if it continues potentially tacoing where the sides of the leaves turn up and the buds in extreme cases turn white, they literally get bleached. Some of the lights will cook plants especially in a bigger tent with bigger lights. Good job otherwise though! Purple has nothing to do with lights I don't think, prolly genetics.

Seedsman: Purple ghost Candy! I've been using the 3-part General hydroponics line, nothing fancy. Could I introduce a PK booster during week 4?

I'll have to turn the lights down from 100 to 80. I'm being cheap and using Amazon lights and figured they couldn't get too powerful at 100. Guess I was wrong haha Thank you

If the Plants were light burned the Pistil/filaments would be brown and curled 1st, as they are much more delicate than the leaves, however if a Plant is showing any signs of stress the 1st rule is back off on Lighting Pressure, good luck.
