I've been researching this problem and sometimes I'm convinced it's Mg deficiency and sometimes I think it's Cal deficiency and sometimes I think it's K deficiency!

What do you think it is?

Bubble bucket - city water adjusted PH 6.8 - GH products and schedule.

Thanks!

Looks like K deff to me, some cal mag won't hurt as well but looks like K.
Are the tips kinda rusted or burnt looking?

The very tippy tips are little brown. Mainly the spots are on the margin of the leaf. The ppm in the bucket is less than 600. Thanks!

Oh wow just saw the hydro part, yeah ph is deff to high as well
OP, definitely drop the ph to 5.8-5.9 and see if things change over the next couple of days.

Here's a basic chart I found online, notice the hydro chart on the left? If the plant is OG then definitely keep her in the lower spectrum of the 5.5-5.9 ph levels. If not an OG then 5.8-5.9 should be fine.
