Surely if it was spraying them that is causing burning then it would be over any part of the leaf, not just the tips?

It's over-fertilization. Nutes no matter what kind will turn your tips brown/rust colored if you over-feed you plant.

If its just the tips of the leaves then your lights are too close. Over fert usually involves browing of edges.

Not always. Light can burn plants too but it looks different than nute burn.
This is light burn;

Only the tips of yours are burned because it's either early signs and your just barely over-feeding them. You should only have to adjust your ferts slightly.

Doesnt chlorine in water burn the tips? Are you using tap water?
