I’m with this guy. Peat gets saturated and never dries.

I’m thinking salt buildup …. You said you only water 1/4 of container volume. Not sure why you don’t fully hydrate .
Peat does get hydrophobic , so you may “ think “ it’s watered because you might notice runoff but it isn’t fully saturated.
Add aloe or couple drops of dish soap to gallon water / slow even watering. Plus it helps dilute the salt .

How much do you water your plants? I mean how much water would you use in a 5,8 gal pot? (by 1/4 I mean the quantity of water, so 1,5gal)
I usually cut an aloe leaf from my garden and put its juice in my nuts solution
Anyway thank you all! I will do what you told me and I hope to harvest big juicy buds

get a new one, they're like 10 bucks. they're important because feed level needs change throughout growth cycle. we need to be able to adjust properly.
to me, original pics look underfed. ensure proper wet/dry cycles, and feed heavier next time. This late in flower, just gotta limp her home.
when they stretch, they need a lot of food because typically the soil is depleted by this time. if you can make it through stretch without significant deficiencies, the hard part is over
feed with each watering, with up to 25% runoff.

Thank you!
I have a plant bigger than the one in the photo, they get the same amount of nutrients but only the plant in the pic has shown severe burns and discoloration, the bigger one just some dry or purple tips, is that still possible to be underfed? idk maybe one genetics uses more nutrients than another.
smaller plant:
bigger one:
I got a new TDS, what ppm should the water be for a plant on its 9th week of 11? regardless if it is def or excess.
