Help with potassium deficiency??

Hey, was hoping to get some help/input here.

Bubba Kush, week 3ish, all organic, just put a top dress down which was lower in nitrogen and higher in p and k (guano, kelp, alfalfa, castings epsom). Also just did a compost tea to kickstart things.

Over the past 4-5 days I’ve noticed something concerning. The dark discoloration at the tip and edges of the leaves is is spreading to a necrosis and necrosis is taking over the leaves quickly. It’s spreading up the plant… dropping leaves much faster than it should. Overall the plants don’t look as healthy.

I can update how much the tea helps tomorrow; but does it look like I have a potassium deficiency?
Any ways to address quickly?

Would you go to water only and just wait and see what happens.

Seeming I meant well, but REALLY overdid it.
Ya that's usually what happens. You want to give it more more more but end up giving it too much. Not sure what kind of soil you are using and what you topdress with/how much. Maybe skip the tea and just plain water. If you put too much top dress in well you kinda just gotta buckle.in for the ride and hope it doesn't spin out of control. GL

A fuqin wild ride it seems it’ll be. Disaster sometimes brings beauty. Just not always how we’d intended.

Yea I’m gonna water it only and let it get nice and dry between watering to slow things down a bit the best I can.
 
Could it be the top dress after only 4-5 days?
I know top dressing nutrients take a while to break down for the plant to uptake. So maybe the combo of the tea and the fertilizer is the issue.
ride it out with water !!!!!!

top dress usually takes 2 weeks to break down and some of it way longer than that. wondering what soil he's using. nice bush there, My Bubba Kush is just a quarter of that, freakn thing started all wild, branching out twisted and with small branches into each other. so I hacked the thing small, turned out better than I thought it would, nothing like here though, hope this grow straightens itself out.

Hey all, finished the grow. Ended up with some decent to pretty good smoke. Smaller buds than I wanted tho. Still learning and getting baked on the way
