Looking for advice

This little one is 5 weeks old. I just got it under a good led light and waiting on my tent setup with fan.
I have had 2 light feeding cycles with AN 3part PH perfect line but haven't added any Cal-Mag yet..(have it ordered for this week).
Feed for the 2nd time last night and had a very high EC runoff. So flushed the plant with neutral pH water and haven't done anything since (only been 24 hours).
Plant has shown these yellow tips for about a week now, and slight tears in 1 or 2 of the smaller leaves. I also noticed that the leaves are drooping a bit, maybe too much fan on them or is this also due to a deficiency or excess in nutrients?
Just looking for direction as to the next feeding if I need Cal-Mag addition, if this is even that problem or other deficiency or excess of nutrient???

I do between 6.4 and 6.8. I usually go for 6.6 lol. Or depending how’s ur tap ph is. If it’s 7 use it if ur soil or run off is low.
And it’s on ur lower growth. So just use water. And spray the stems I think ur good brotha

I always post mine. Bc it shows my mistakes too

I think I did make an account. I just followed you. My pH is high here it's 9.5 so I will have to pH down a little. I was using a bottled water until I was able to get pH down for my tap water. If I can't afford a RO system, will tap suffice? I've been reading tap water will cause your plant to not process nutrients properly?

Tap water is perfectly fine. Look at it this way... if it's safe for you to drink, it's safe for the plants as well.

Right on. Speaking to the chlorine that is in the water. I have heard letting the water sit in a bucket either outside or in your home for 24 hours will evaporate the chlorine? Is that true and which method outside or inside is best

Most municipalities now use Chloramine instead of/in conjunction with Chlorine. Chloramine does not evaporate like Chlorine does, so in reality, leaving it sit may not be doing anything. Again though, as I said, if the water is safe for you to drink, it's perfectly safe for the plants, even the level of Chlorine in the water.

For my plants, I use water drawn from the lake I live on. It's then filtered and Chlorinated prior to me using it. I have never let the water sit, not even when I lived in a city and used their tap water. I could easily bypass the Chlorination stage where I am now, but I prefer to use water that is known pathogen free.
