Tips Burnt A Little Bit Nutes 1/8th Strength

I’ve been giving my critical jack auto 1/8 nutes strength with roots organic Buddha bloom every other water and no matter what they seem to get a little burnt on the tips. I’m 6 and a half weeks in. I’m using roots organic original soil. Should I lower dose because it’s already a small dose to begin with? Or keep doing what I’m doing?

Any pics? If they're showing signs of burn back off the nutes completely or run a flush. Something isnt right my autos are eating at 3/4 to full strength at 6-8 weeks and seem to want more. But less is always more keep that in mind.

This happened after I gave the nutes. PH of soil is 7.5-8 maybe it’s a lockout. Leaves are turning yellow from bottom up, might give it some cal mag. Gonna flush with water tonight and measure run off. I just wanna be able to feed it I’m heading into week 7 they’re gonna need food. So confused. What to do? Appreciate the response

Yep I almost guarantee this issue is ph related. My soil stays around 6.2-6.5 I also always keep a ppm pen around so I can test my runoff which can tell you if you're in lockout if the number is really high and I also ppm my feeds to make sure it's not too much but just enough I'm into flower and my feed are about 1100 ppm and my plants seem to love it. I would flush the shit out if it and test all that. And flush with a lower ph water to compensate for the high ph of the soil at the ph your soil is at your plants cannot uptake the nutrients needed. Anytime brother I enjoy helping others any chance I get.

Consider the possibility of root rot. That can look like a lockout...heat stress..pH problem...pretty much everything. Edit: if you have hydroguard (just throwing a brand out there) it certainly wouldn't hurt to apply it. Remember...even though your pH is high, doesn't mean it's a pH issue. You have to ask yourself what caused a pH change like that?
