Please help me out guys. Possible nute deficiency.

I am growing autos for the first time, one is an auto #1 plant, im using 400w hps, its in its forth week and im using fox farm trio nutes. in the third or so week I noticed yellow tips on the plant that looked like nute burn but I was using minimal nutes, ive tried to get it right but now the leaves are clawing, yellowing and feel slightly crisp. it seems to be getting worse and I know it must be a deficiency but not sure what to do, someone please give some advice, it is starting to flower and doesn't seem to be coming along in a healthy way. im worried its gonna flat line. ill post pics if no one is sure what im seeing. please help, thanks

Auto's are super sensitive to nutrients.
You're frying them.
Flush, then cut the nutrients for a while and let it repair itself.

As above, give them a good flush will not do any harm….

Can you post some pictures of the failing leaves… you will probably get more replies….

In the meantime, the info below might help you troubleshoot….

clawing is a sign of over watering.. if the roots are too saturated in water they are unable to breath. Roots like a humid environment, not a wet one. FACT: the roots use oxygen while the leaves use CO2.. This is why fresh air exchange ensures that neither roots nor the leaves are in short supply of fresh air.

You shouldn't have to water more than 1 or 2 times a week unless you have huge plants in tiny containers.

Fox Farm nutes or Ocean Forest soil?

If you're using FFOF I've heard it's a little too hot for seedlings which may explain the nute burn...

Here are some pictures

Also keep in mind that humidity in your area can make a big difference. I've noticed that when growing in a humid area, I didn't need to water nearly as much. If you are in a really dry area you will probably still need to water more than twice a week. I definitely did.
