Should I worry about yellowing leaves?

[czarstroke]

Hey there. I have an outdoor plant (Special Queen #1) who is premature budding. Should I be worried about the yellowing/burnt tips of some leaves? I haven’t watered myself in about a week and when I do ph is always in range. Top dress kelp meal every now and gain as well. All advice welcome. To me looking a possible K deficiency?

Looks to be either an N or Mg issue. I say it might be Magnesium, because its deficiency typically shows up on random leaves between the bottom and middle of the plant, and can often appear similar to an N def. Nitrogen almost always starts at the very bottom and works its way up.

Could you post a couple of pics that are up clone of one or two of the affected leaves? One of an extremely affected leaf, and another of a leaf that is more-or-less just starting to show symptoms.

Also I had a calmat issue earlier, but have foliar and fed calmag when I am able too water.

I updated my post to ask if you could take a couple of pictures of some affected leaves. Re-read my other post for details.

Here is one badly affected one and 2 that are just starting to look affected.

To me, it looks more like a Magnesium deficiency than anything else. The first picture shows a leaf half-way up the plant affected, and the second picture shows what appear to be the earlier signs of Mg def.

Thank you for the help. Moving forward I have rain tomorrow, but should be able to foliar feed calmag.

Don't go overboard with the foliar spray. A couple of times only, and wait a feeding between the first and second doses. Also, foliar spray no less than 15 minutes before lights-off (or in your case sundown), or else you can burn the plants (the light is magnified by the water beads on the leaves).
