so i thought i had phosphorous deficiency and i added a tad of miracle grow and liquid seaweed +iron(maxicrop). now the symptoms are still there but are starting to show more. i water with vinegar phed aquaponics water to 6 or sometimes regular aquaponics water at 8.0

it grew so much in just 3 weeks and had a beautiful color! i have no idea about the fertilizer or soil used previously as i never grew before.

is it to much nitrates from all the aquaponics water?

Symptoms: almost all leaves have a tiny black tip. some leaves are yellowing and others are drying up after turning black and cringing.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I got just 2 side shots of some of the lower leaves.(not as bushy because i took some clones.)

I would hazard a guess its form the ph swing from 6 to 8 ... not very good for the plant, causes lockout and stress .. plus the added stress from cloneing .. keep the ph steady and cut the nutes for a couple of waterings
