okay so its comin down to the last 3weeks of my season. and around this time i usually deal with a lil bit nute burn but nothing bad

this is weird tho because usually it starts at the end of the leaf and works its way in. but this is opposite

it starting from the inside and going out.ill attach some pics.i took the pics with a blue tint so you can see what im talking about.

out of 6plants (all Purple Wreck) its just 1 doing this.so im not sure how to handle it should it be cut down sooner? well any advice is appreciated.

I'm sure we would like to help, really. How are we supposed to help with a nute problem without knowing if you're in soil or in hydro? How can we help if you don't tell us which nutes you've used? What is the pH of your nutrient solution? What is the strength in PPM or EC of the solution? What is your source water (rain, city, well, spring, R.O.)?

I should have been a doctor like my mother..

I hope to help more when you answer these questions.

If the problem starts on the inside of the leaf and works it's way out it is usually a manganese deficiency. If it is only on the top of the plant, and not effecting the lower leaves, then Iron deficiency is your culprit. Over fertilization doesn't burn on the inside first. Do you have necrotic spots on the leaves as well? Right now the Nute demands on your plant are very high(sans nitrogen), so unless your ppm is over 1400 or so, you shouldn't be burning it. You may want to scale up on the GH micro, and scale back on something else to get those micronutrients I think you may be missing.

No problem man...if you are already flushing for completion, then next time just use more of the micro than what you have been....good luck buddy.
