why is this happening

What's going on? I've flushed around her around 2 weeks ago, and it looks like this is just getting worse, it is an autoflower in fox farm ocean forest, not on a feed schedule yet, drinks tap water from the sink, (last night a water bottle as used) but can anyone identify this and give a solution she's almost in week 2 of flowering

Is there a reason why you plants are wet ???? The tips say nute burn .. Do you foliar feed often ???

The plant is hungry...the burnt patch is from you splashing water on it and letting it cook in the light. Dont water your plants like that. Water by pouring a spiral out from the base of the plant. Not on the plant, on the soil.

And I will add because every newb seems to do it, including myself when newb, DON'T SPRAY YOUR PLANTS!!! lol. It's human instinct, feels like we are being all caring and shit, but really we are waterboarding them, drowning and burning them if lights are on.

If you see a plant dying and losing water, still don't spray it, water well and put a bag over it. It needs high humidity, not to be smothered in liquid water.

Touch the CFL, if you can keep your hand on it continuously without it burning/being uncomfortably hot the plant will be fine. I have T8 shop lights giving some mom's supplemental lighting and they grow right into them without issue.

I'm guessing from the good looking tops that there is no calcium or magnesium deficiency. I'm guessing those leaves we wet and got nute burn so the plant is choosing to drop them. Look at the top of your plants for deficiency signs, not the bottoms. Bottom leaves are moisture, watering nute burn, or shade issues usually.

Looks good other than the minor tip damage from water over the plant/spraying. No signs of deficiency on that top. You are looking fine. Once the bottom leave feel crunchy pull them and they should drop freely.
