ok so ive only been using water with a ph of 6.8 there doesn`t seem to be any more burning , but one of the fan leaves that i noticed when i made the post originally started looking more pale than the rest and i noticed another today a few hours after feeding , so i decided to flush as ive experienced a P lockout before and the leaves seemed to look very similair.

I flushed the soil with twice the amount of water to soil , the ph going in was 6.8 and the runoff was 6.3 at the beginning of flush. The runoff at the at of flush was 6.1 and the water was pretty much clear.

Could this have been the start of a lockout, ive never flushed a plant before and when i had a p lockout before it was to late to do anything. Or does it look more like nute burn?

Ive uploaded another pic of the affected leaf, the rest of the plant seems to be healthy but i dont want to take any unnecessary risks.

You worry to much....Healthy plant. Some growers i know feed just enough that just the tips of their leaves burn just like that. That tells them the plant has enough

Thats how I run my plants, but my soil puts them right on the edge of burn anyways. I had a male that i popped outside after ripping of 75% of his leaves and some of the remaining leaves did the same thing as your last pic. Mine was from the sun though. It went into shock and put out female flowers and I got a ok size bud off it. Your plant looks kinda dark, but the plant will eat it up pretty fast.

Ok so after almost 48 hours since flush , the leaf that was looking paler than the rest is now looking worse, and i also noticed one on the other side of the plant which looks to be coming off the same node starting to look similair but this leaf is completely covered by a larger fan leaf above it. Theres also some yellowing to the leaves right at the base of the plant. But the rest of the plant seems ok with only a few of the smaller leaves curling under.
Pics of plant and affected leaves.

Is this the start of the leaves yellowing or something different?, thx for your advice.

no reports back? my soil also feels waterlogged but it does have around 1/3 of vermiculite and perlite in the medium. how long after flushing the medium should i expect the pot to feel dry ? should i worry about the roots moulding if left in waterlogged soil too long? As long as the pot gets lighter should i be ok ? plz advise

yeah when it feels light then water. also i looked at the soil in the pics... cant see any perlite, ditch vermiculite, it retains moisture. have fun

Could someone have a look at my pics in post 24 and advise if this looks like normal yellowing or lockout?

mostly likely normal yellowing or if you have been using less nitrogen this could also be the case. can't see any lockouts at 6.4/6.5 ph ;)
