Yellowing tips of leaves

Hi all,

I am seeing the tips of my girls slowly yellow over last few days.
I am using canna soil and canna feed which I use with every water (every other day).

Am I feeding too much? Or overwatering. Any advice would be great.
Thanks
Nick

thats over ferting, cut back a bit on the feed strength, name brands allways tell you to use more or a stronger nute concentration then you need to use.
what are you growing in?

Growing in canna soil. Strawberry pie autos in 12L pots. 300w maxbright LED.

would you say to go with no nutes on next feed to just reduced amount.

thanks

if in soil, i would say yes, i would say your ok, i would skip feeding the next watering, just to make sure its nute burn, too little nitrogen can cause leaves to turn yellow too, but they look to me, like there nitrogen rich from the dark green of the leaves, the slight turning of the leaves just starting. and the leaf tips turning yellow. all pointing to nitrogen toxicity.
if it were not enough nitrogen, the large shade leaves would be turning yellow from the bottom of the plant upwards.
hope that helps

So do you think the yellow tips will eventually turn back to green or is that permanent. I have good watering with rainwater 24hrs ago so wondering if I should see any difference yet.

The yellow won't go back to green. Just look for new damage on leaves that were ok earlier to determine if you've fixed the problem.
Good luck.
