Yellowing tips on new growth.. Need some answers

Hey everyone. So I'm like 4 weeks into my first proper grow (nutrients, lighting, ph bal etc) and all oft plants are doing as well as hoped ( 1fem ak-48 3 reg sleeskunk) but just yesterday I noticed some yellowing on the tips of the new growth only (I'll attach pics) so is it serious? Whatcha guys think it is? I have the 4 plants under a mars hydro300 and a hlg65 qb120. They're in fox farms soil 3 gal pots and have not been feed any nutrients yet as I just transplanted them into new soil from solo cups about 9 days ago. I water every 3 days or if soil is dry w 6.5 ph'd water and they're currently in a 2x4x60tent with two fans. Here's the pics. Thanks in advance family!'

Burny burny nutey burny,.. nah lol. May well be just a little richness from your new soil is all, should be fine dude, when are you planning to start adding nutes in there?

Thanks for your insight. That's a bit of a relief. Just was worried cause it was new growth. I have fox farms trio but since I just transplanted not top long ago I wanted to wait a week or two. You think I should still hold off on the mutes for a week or so?

Are they planted in straight Fox Farm Ocean Forest(FFOC)? I'd recommend next time mixing HP Promix with the FFOF at 50/50. If in straight FFOF don't feed until new growth doesn't start with yellow tips and when you do start feeding go light first time or 2 until the nutrients in the soil are closer to being used up.

Yeah dude keep it just to PHed water for now for 2-4 weeks or so, use some of them nutes in the soil first!! If you have any fish product (seaweed extract ect) throw some of that into your water to help establish the roots into the new soil :hump:

Is it cooler in your grow area due to season right now? Plants tend to pull more nutes in cooler temps due to less transpiration. When its warmer in general they will take more water than nutes. From what I see you have nothing to worry about. Just letting you know for future reference. I know you said you havent nuted yet, but the above still applies. Adjust accordingly and happy sailing my friend.
