Nutrient Burn? What are my next steps?

I’m in week 6 of flowering and over the last week I’ve seen the leaf tips turn yellow and now they’re spotty.

I’m feeding them Foop nutrients based of their recommendations, but this week I dialed it back by half because of the leaf issues.

Is this nutrient burn? What are the steps I need to take to make sure it doesn’t continue?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

I agree, they look a little overfed. I have never heard of your nutes but I think cutting it in half is a good move. good luck.

Never heard of FOOP. I guess that's a play on fish poop.

But according to them it will not burn your plants which it obviously did. Or did you inadvertently use too much? Might want to double check the feeding amounts.

IMPORTANT TIPS:
FOOP is different. We understand that you may be accustomed to cutting our competitors’ recommended feeds in half because you know these companies are telling you to feed too much. WE PROMISE THAT WE WILL NEVER DO THAT. We also understand that you might be tempted to reduce the feeds because it feels like too much food. We promise it's not. FOOP Canna combines multiple ingredients that our competitors split up into a dozen different bottles. We guarantee that these feeds will not burn your plants.

Seemed like straight up company until I read this:

"FOOP Canna Sweetener contains a blend of eight all-natural and organic sugars sourced from some of the most exotic places on the planet, with vitamin and amino acid profiles optimized around not only improving flavor, but providing a strong finish and maximizing trichome development."

Wow. Just checked that stuff out. I'd buy a $0.10 feeder goldfish and bury it in my pots before I used FOOP in place of ridX in the septic systems of past. Messed up poop.

I was actually intrigued by the concept at first until I read the same old marketing nonsense other companies use. Then there are the testimonials:

"Our yield per plant looks like it's going to be double what it was last year"
"The trichomes exploded 3 days after the first application"

I can't stand that kind of nonsense.

And it obviously burnt up the OP's plants.

That's not nutrient burn it's a potassium deficiency. The first is early stages and the second a bit later.
I suppose. The thing that made me lean towards more of a lock out was looking at the leaves, they are super dark green with some of them clawing like a typical sign of an nitrogen toxicity. Now if the nutes OP is using are heavy in nitrogen then i suppose it could be a potassium deficiency, but if its a complete nute for cannabis, then it should have gotten what it needed for potassium. Idk. Just my thoughts on how i got to OP needing flush.

We know one thing for sure. Those plants are fooped. I'd toss that crap in the trash if my plants ended up looking like that from using it. I tried to find some information on their website and found the product labels and it doesn't seem like it's very strong. Most of the webpage is like an infomercial with them bashing other products and claiming that their super secret sauce is far superior to anything else.

Foop them.
