Both autos 44 days from seed.
2nd grow so still new to this.

This is the kit.What lights are you using and how far are they from the plant? It doesn't look like you have much of the same problem on the lower branches, correct?
Thanks. I'll try raising it a bitFrom what I'm seeing some of those tips look a little bleached. Nute burn usually starts on the lowers and moves upwards so I would try to raise your light(s) a few inches but that's just my two pennies.
I'm going to try raising the light.You know i thought the same thing they looked bleached not good at all. Too close to tops of plants.
I would keep the intensity where it is but raise the lights a bit. At the very least it will reduce the chances of further damage from lighting if that is indeed the case.Do you recommend lowering the intensity too, or not?
Copied from my previous more detailed post that didn't get any replies -Leaf tips are an excellent indicator of the health of a plant, but they're only a warning. There can be multiple causes. My thinking is that there may be multiple problems here.
Excess or deficient P can show as necrotic leaf tips. What are the media and nutrients?
Another possible cause of leaf tip necrosis is too high a VPD, so it would help to know the temperature and humidity.
I think light burn is unlikely, but it might help to reduce the light intensity for a while.
I believe I see some chlorosis between the veins, which could be Mg deficiency, which is also related to light intensity.
Thanks, I'll do that.I would keep the intensity where it is but raise the lights a bit. At the very least it will reduce the chances of further damage from lighting if that is indeed the case.
Also did you notice the droop of the leaves on the indica?I would keep the intensity where it is but raise the lights a bit. At the very least it will reduce the chances of further damage from lighting if that is indeed the case.
That could be from multiple things but more often than not it's caused by under or over watering.Also did you notice the droop of the leaves on the indica?
Is that light related too or something else?
Those are 1000 watt equivalent! They actually draw about 100 watts, it would be difficult to burn a plant with those lights unless they’re very close to the plant. If anything given the spacing between the nodes, it needed more light early on, not less. PH may be your issue if you’re using synthetic nutes. What are you feeding? There are many PH down products, you can use lemon juice in a pinch, but it’s not optimal. Do you have a ph pen? You’ll need one.They say 1000 W bulbs, set at about 65%
12 inches away, on 18 off 6.
Correct, all the problem parts are around the middle, making it more confusing.
If you check my post from yesterday there's more info there but nobody replied.
Define "very" & yes, it could well be the cause.The PH is very alkaline, I don't know what to do about that if it's an issue.

I'm not feeding now due to nutes in the tomato compost but this is the food I use, I tried feeding half of the strength recommended a few weeks ago and that seemed to be when the problems started.Those are 1000 watt equivalent!
