Is it a nitrogen deficiency

as late as you are into flowering, i think i'd carefully spray my leaves with some epsom salts, use your hand or some paper or something to block the buds. just for taste, not sure if epsom salts have a flavor or not, but no point in finding out.
the foliar spray ought to take effect quick, and this late, you should only need to once.

Isn't Mexican guano high in nitrogen? What is the NPK?

Yes mexi is very high in nitrogen I usually only use it for veg. I went ahead and mixed mexi guano and some molasses for foliar spray and doused it I'm hoping that covers the n and k problem I know I can't be a p problem BC it gets tons of that from my compost tea which will be ready tomorrow

I wouldn't spray anything at this point. Water with some Epsom next watering. Have you fed it anything with high P and K?

I don't know what it is but I'm pretty sure it's not an N problem. Good luck!

I would back off the guano in teas if that yellow starts turning red or maroon. If you start seeing those colors it will confirm my suspicion that the guano is hot, some have high P and K.

I wouldn't even bother with foliar with Epsom. It is fast acting even in soil. I normally see improvement over night after watering with it. I'm just not a fan of spraying in flower. One for taste and second for the risk of pm or rot.

Guano could do more harm than good if you give it to them heavy this late in bloom; microlife doesn't like the boat rockin too much after mid-bloom. I suggest hydrating some dolomite lime; bubble it like a tea with some water; maybe a tsp per gal. I agree it looks like an absorption issue but a N def is also a possibility...
