Thats minor nute burn its nothing to worry about, you have to wait at least 3 to 4 weeks before any dosing if your soil is already hot

Okay it might be a combo of 2 things it looks like part is to much nutrients and one of your lights is to close to the top and is burning your leaf. so what are you feeding her per gallon? and how close is your light/s and what kind of lights?

thanks, only thing is i gave a 1/4 of the amount i usually do with decent run-off but then again hell i might have been giving em to much to begin with but they did very well before could it be that bc i dont use ph'd water that under nuting them gave me a bad ph? dont have a ph tester to test

im using a t5 4ft 8 bulb and i did pull the lights back another few inches they were alot closer but still not touching the plant i use a three part grow bloom micro set up and i had been using a 1/2 oz of each per gallon up until the other day when i watered them i used only a 1/4 of each im following exactly what the bottle says to use and i have a chart from rose bud that concures the amount but if its nute burn i will just use water for my next feeding and see what happens
thanks for the quick response as well

okay wiht out a ph tester you need to use a Brita filter on your tap water then let it sit out for a day to breath that gets rid of chlorine you water will then be around 6.5 real close to it or buy distilled water but that is expensive. now nutes will lower your ph big time so give her a good flush of 1 gallon run off maybe 2 with the last gallon have 1/2 of the amount you used before then you will be okay till next water, cut your nutes in 1/2 of what you have been using for 2 weeks then she will be bigger and can handle more nutes.
Peace and Love

Pic 3 looks like insect damage, or physical damage to the leaf. Rest don't look too bad.

Kid ill tell you like ive told before. always use 1/4 to 1/2 the dosage when you are using low power lights. you plant cant use it up under florescent or cfl's like they can with hps mh lights even led lights require you to use i little less nutes.

i guess where i am stumped is that i was giving a full dose of nute for a little while and this happens when i cut it down i mean it couldve happened either way i know but i guess its just puzzling is all that it would nute burn with less nutes is all and i also before was having a problem with heat i didnt knw my roots/plants were so cold my root temps were down in the low 50's now they are back up to around 65-70 via space heater and lots of fans to circulate the air to keep the tops from getting to hot but that might still be happening thats why i was wondering could it of been a overheating problem so now my plants are at the right temp and getting less nutes and are getting nute burned i guess thats where im puzzled not saying your wrong in anyway bc i am in now way shape or form a pro just going hmmmmmmm..... is all

okay when you use soil it gives you a buffer it can hold allot more nutes for weeks and you wont see any issue then bam it starts to show. that is why soil rocks. but once you see it then you know you need to flush its good to flush every 3 weeks anyway gets rid of salt buildup ect. keeps plants happier.

also keep humidity close to 40 in veg and close to 20 in flower. they are cheap to buy gauge to show humidity. if your humidity gets too low it can also cause this look. if it gets to dry put a dish with a wet towel in it next to plant will raise your humidity and change daily till you have the right level.

Agree with aimaim, I'm seeing some slight nute burn as well as a little leaf chompage. Honestly, pH isn't too big of a deal with soil. My water comes out of the tap @ a pH of 8.5 and all it does to my soil plants is turn the petioles (leaf steams) red.

I'm also seeing a slight sponginess in your new growth, probably from overfeeding and not over watering if your running soil-less. Lower your nutrients even more for a week or so and see how if she starts getting better.
