Potassium def or mag maybe
Or could be both , look at your feeding and see which is low

Hit them with a few feeds of bloom to top up p and k levels in plant or use some Epsom depending on what it is

Front , 3 from left is also showing the claw , build up of unused nutes in pot so reduce ec/ppm too maybe

An issue with lights would generally be affecting the very top leaves - the ones closest to the lights. Problems that are affecting lower leaves only or starting with the lower leaves are more likely to be related to nutrients and pH.

The dark green leaves, cupping leaves, and slightly brown/burnt leaf tips are signs of an excess of nitrogen. The yellowing may be from the same problem.

Ok so the promix has no nutrients,Ive only used a tablespoon as directed npk is 16 8 10 its supposed to slowly realease fertilizer over 7 weeks,no extra nutrients,just water ,but it does look like nute burn and not deficiency so idk what to do because you cant flush the dots out,its mostly on the bottom fan leaves so im hoping fheyll bounce back

Yeah, I think I would just try to wait it out. The affected leaves likely won’t get better. The sign of things improving would be that the problem does not continue to spread to additional leaves, and the leaf color becomes less dark overall.

I have never used these grow dot things. They might not be as good and easy as advertised.

I wonder how long before the dots, give up the goodies?
Maybe you need to add them to a pot , with medium, well before a plant gets poked into them.
I’m having a hard time with this:
Now you can feed your plants once, at the beginning of their grow cycle… and that single application will keep your plants fed for their entire grow cycle, all the way to harvest.
I let my medium mix sit and rest, in large totes, after I add the Down To Earth items for the run.
I add in the tote, a gallon of Myco water, and gallon of water, close it up, and try to wait 3-4 weeks to pull from it for transplants or pot filling.
You may find that a bump of LAB’s mixed with some pulverized /filtered Aloe Vera leaf will fast track the organic goodies in your medium.
I do that when I use unrested mixed up medium.
I’m not slagging them, I love ReCharge, and do NOT know their dot product myself.
Best of luck!!

They release for something wild like 16 weeks

In my experience grow dots is not a complete enough nutrient formula, If you are relying on grow dots as your sole nutrients you will suffer deficiencies. It may be better as a supplemental nutrient. And to figure out deficiencies you can try using this guide A Visual Guide to Cannabis Deficiencies | Dutch Passion

@Patriots781 Hey bud you need to be fairly consistent at least 1 time a week with a green tea or recharge type product. I belive they intended and recommend green tea or recharge 1 to 2 times per week to supplement the grow dots. Give it a try see how it goes would be good info for us all… Cheers !!!
