LED light burn?

Good eye we are both learners. But day 44 of flower and she has a ways so it's a little early for normal yellowing.
I don't really bother with ph either but just picked up a couple things to test ph with and have been doing my homework. They tell me it's to high.
My only solution to that is to give the medium a flush. The start again gradually with the nutrients.

How much have you been feeding?
How regularly?
Ph is very important. Even in soil.
Lots of the natives here in Australia repuire lower ph as a must. IMHO, certain bacteria thrive at different ph ranges. Its about letting the right ones thrive, that eat the right things, that in turn feed your plant.
If you have given a lot of NPK, id be cautious.
Whatever it is, your problems in the micro's. IMHO id be taking a stab at calcium or mag.
Did you supplement it with calcium, in the beginning? Either lime, gypsum, dolomite, calmag etc.
If you did, which is normal to do for soil. How much, and what did you use?
Whats the ph, at the bottom of your pot? Do you have any means of knowing ppm?
If you havn't fed in a LONG time, it may need a feed.
I think its pretty unlikely though.
Let us know the info, if you can, first.
Good luck.

I Had a thread the other day about checking the ph levels. The majority of people who chimed in said if a person is growing in soil then they don't need to worry about the ph because soil is alive and it neutralizes itself out. Maybe you can read up on that and see what you think.
I can ker. I've always grown with soil and have never ph'd my water. Each run I check my run offs ph atleast twice and I am always aroumd 6 - 6.5. It's actually one of the reasons I stick with soil vs learning the hydro game. I work full time so taking care of a soil garden already takes up majority the rest of my free time. It always just allows one more variable when trying to diagnose an issue.

Looks like P deficiency
Pretty much what I've boiled it down too. I know because i havent been using my base nutrients during flower, which have 9% phosphate i only used them during veg and i did use it last time i feed and the problem has slowed down. I got some floralicious plus thats got some good phosphorus in it I'm gonna add next feed. The problem has slowed but is still affecting the already affected leaves. And i couple bottom leaves yellowing but those seem normal with age.

Aye I'm growing some crystal cookies v2 & Platinum Scout v2 both terminated at same time and planted same,exact time but the crystal cookies have surpassed the platinum scout in growing very well should i pop another platinum scout for back up issues or wait it out , looks like one little round leaf on the platinum scout seedling is curling down just one leaf on one side

Well you always could have started your own thread, but I'm sure we might me able to help. Why did you terminate in the first place? I didn't get your first part but i understand your cookies are growing much faster then your scout. We would need to see pictures of the seedling and if its even a seedling.

Oh and to anybody who was on this thread and might be curious to see how the plant is doing i will show. It is still not getting any worse. I talked to a couple other guys at the grow shop and suggested i used the calimagic and floralicious plus seen in picture. He also thought it was a P or K deficiency. The leaves affected are still slowly getting crunchy. I have feed it with both the calmag and floralicious twice and watered plain water once since posted. No other leaves have been affected and growth is still going strong. I had initially screwed the day of flowering up at first, it would be at day 46 from first sign of sex instead of first day of flip. Other than that she smells of stong glue and citrus. I nipped the dead parts of the fingers off fan leaves.

Oh and I meant germination

They look fine to me. You have two different cultivars so remember they are not going to grow exactly the same even when plant or germed at the same time. If it's only curling a little and they both have color and you can feel the life, then do what they say and when in doubt wait it out. But i think you are worrying to early. Plus when you take pictures turn your light off or take the plants out the tent.
