Unsure what to do with this symptom

hi all,

I’ve read a few pinned posts regarding symptoms and I’m not sure what I should do as there are a few possible causes that it may be:

Zinc deficiency
Potassium deficiency
Nute burn

The plant is 4 weeks old from germ, I use rain water in a reservoir hooked up to blumat watering system, the medium is organic peat/super soil with perlite aeration.

I have not fed it anything but I have kelp meal and ewc tea ready to go for a feed however I thought I would hold off until I get some advice or I could Make it worse.

Last night I noticed discolouration on the edges of the leaves but thought nothing of it, this morning it had browned up quite fast

Thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated

You need to give us more than that man. No mention of water or nutes, ph, ppm, are you feeding it? Aren't you? What soil....etc.

Apologies for being so vague, ive updated in my post with more info.

I use rainwater in a reservoir that is sucked up by blumat watering cones, I haven’t fed it anything then what is in the soil (soil is organic super soil mix and peat. Tested soil ph and it is 5.9

I just can’t tell what it could be, I transplanted from a smaller container into the one it is now at 2 weeks, unless the roots have finally grown into the super soil? The organic maker had noted to never transplant where the roots would touch the super soil so it could be hot for the new plant maybe?
