Just finished growing 16 autos in dirt. First, screw autos. Next, almost to a plant they hated nutrients and that is a 1/4 strength starting feed! If I nute burn a plant then that strain doesn't like nutes because I start at 1/4 strength and only at 4-5 weeks for first feed. I never go over 1/2 strength. These things weenied out and actually burned with a light watering with 1/4 strength nutes. You burned them - multiple high ratio feeds.

well i keep the light 2 feet away. the fan i also try to keep 2 feet away but ill try to move that away on top of adjusting my ph.

thanks everyone bongsmilie
trust me... this is a case of light burn... NOT NUTE BURN...

I'm sure you notice how the damage gets worse the closer it is to the light... and that the bottom of the plant is almost undamaged...
,
The plant was overheating, and couldn't retain mositure, so it's ridges curl first (a good warning sign) and then the whole leaf curles up to try to retain mositure, then it and drys out drying from the tips and ridges inward...

Nute Burn starts at the tips only, if the plant is not also overheating at the same time you add too much nutes, then your leaves will not show burn on the ridges untill the tips burn in at least 1/4 inch...

Can you update on how this worked out? I'm seeing something that looks identical with a osmocote perlite hempy -- I KNOW my tap ph was too high, so I'm adjusting. I'm only 2 days into adjusting PH so I'm not sure if I've fixed it yet.
