Nute burn or potash def

Ok I'm all turned around I'm using gaia green in hp mix I'm not sure if this is because I started flowering then added the slow release bloom or if somehow it's nute burn because the tips are yellow any thoughts my good people

Google says looks like a cal mag deficiency, not sure but that is what came up when i Google searched the leaf. Plus a lil calmag wont hurt.

I use worm castings and the gaia green combo shouldn't that be enough because my other girl gets the same and is doing fine

That one might just want a little more food. It does look like Mg and Ca deficiency though.

Natually Existing things if you are trying to Stay organic. Just make sure you pH the water after you shake the crap outta it.

DIY Cal Mag

1.5g / gal - Gypsum powder
1g / gal - Epsom salt

The Problem with Organic, is that the nutes are not always bioavaible instantly, Like you get with an inorganic Nutrient. With Organics, the nutes have to break down into Ions before the plant can uptake them, where as Inorganic Nutes are already in ion form and the plant can take them up as soon as you water them in.

Thanks guys probably just chalk this one up to bad timing on feeding but to be on the safe side I'll grab some recharge and cal mag

Little Epsom salt is all you "probably" need. Them top leaves that look like magnesium deficiency is most likely a Manganese deficiency. They both look alike. How can you know for sure? Magnesium deficiency starts at the bottom up ...Manganese starts at the top.
The thing with Cal Mag is since you topped dressed already, your adding Calcium in addition to the Calcium you just laid down (in the top dressing). Too much Calcium can block Magnesium, Boron, and Phosphorus.
The key here is balance so be careful.
It's a tuff act and when in doubt just flush your pots when you see trouble.
One important and overlooked factor is your soil. I'm assuming your growing organic since your using Gaia Green. Check your soils pH. It needs to be within a range for your plant to prosper.

Check your pH runoff. I think it's rare for a soil mix to be deficient -especially if you're adding nutes, too. I think pH lockout is a MUCH more likely issue.

-2 cents.

Are u PH’ing your water??
I’ve grown w/ GG in almost every medium u can think of and will occasionally get a tip issue. As long as that’s the extent of it, I wouldn’t give it much thought.
In Pro-mix I would ph my inputs to 6.0.
Also, for what’s it’s worth, my best runs have been with using the 4-4-4 all the way until a couple weeks into flower…….then hit em hard with the 2-8-4. They need lots of N during the transition and stretch.
