Need to be monitoring my PPM better. Wonder if maybe this is underfed? I’m using jacks classic blossom booster and flower fuel. Ph 6.5-6.7. May need to up the PH?9C8E6F2B-2DD9-48C0-B3E0-E3DE641E4C02.jpeg

Potassium deficiency MIMICS nute burn but the yellowing along leaf edges is the typical sign.
Looks a bit nitro heavy too. Which probably knocked the potassium issue out of whack.

Thank you for the help. How should I fix? My jacks is 1-3-2 and flower fuel is 1-34-32

IMO flower fuel is pretty heavy in PK .. reminds me of beastie bloom and not in a good way. Wondering if you are running any calmag in your grow ? Apparently flower fuel dies not have calcium which aids in nute transporting thru plant.

Its pretty jungle like in there ... i would remove all of the dead / dying lower leaf , get more air and light in there. Flower fuel is more if a supplement than actual nute. I probably would run jacks on its own , let plant start to exhaust the excess and use flower fuel maybe around week 6/7 then stop. Ph range is good , so it issues falls on the feed mix.

I feel you man I. May back off the flower fuel. I use fox farms cal mag and I assume it mixes in the water but when I do use it (once a week) I have noticed a frothy foam at the top of the water. I’m open to learning more so please don’t take what I say the wrong way or anything I just want to explain what I’m doing and my thought process. Indeed about 4 jacks to one of the small scoops of flower fuel per gallon, and I water every day. I presume I may be using the flower fuel too often. I don’t use it in higher concentrations than the jar says ( I know labels often mean shit ppm etc but flower fuel is a CHEMICAL mixture, so i don’t want to over do the mixture) but my thought process may be wrong on my frequency of use

It is a jungle indeed. I didn’t expect my fems to get this big (left side) while waiting for some auto buds to run for some smoke in between. I underestimated the growth.

As far as lights. That’s about only thing I have on point lol. Have a lux meter and have 50k lux in corners 75-80 in middle. Running HLG quantum boards. 4 qb132, 2 Qb96, and a HLG 150 probably overkill on the lights but if nothing else I can sleep good knowing my plants are atleast getting fantastic lights. Need to work on my feed I think. The autos in one gallon pots also run dry very fast. Maybe try feed water feed I don’t know. I have to water every day and always feed. Maybe too much. I’m not sure man damn

They are flowering pretty well , so that’s good . It’s just looking for a bit more potassium.... remember leaves will not recover , you are only trying to stop progression.

Lights are fine , it’s the feed .

Labels are one thing , but the plant will tell you whether it likes it or not. Always best to start light.
It’s like adding salt to your meal .... add to much and it pretty much wrecks out , start light and you can hold or bump slightly n

What do I do to give more potassium if I’m backing off the flower fuel? Do I need to get a potassium supplement?

This my 2¢ ... I would shelve the flower fuel for a bit and run kelp in your watering . It is a great source of micro Nutes and potassium.
