Brown Leaf Tips- Nutes or Late Flower?

[Jason]

My Yvonna 7 (White Widow relative) is just beginning Week 9 of 12 on the GH Trio feeding schedule. A slight browning of leaf tips is happening.
Too strong a nutrient solution or just natural aging of leaves at this stage of flower?
Insights appreciated. This girl was FIM'd and has responded well.
Light is 315 CMH at about 22 inches. Lots of air movement with three fans. I over fill the res so nutes are slightly diluted. Half gallon of adjusted water morning and early evening before lights go out. pH tested three times a day.

Looks like just the tips to me ,same thing happened to me every time I top dressed with KindSoil, no problems at all if that is all there is. Pretty plants. Nice light. Very small nutrient burn.

Thank you. That's what I'm thinking. Nute change is tomorrow, so I might knock it back a bit. I hate to cut back on the Bloom portion of the food, so I'll give that some thought.
She's very leggy and buds I'd like to see fatten and condense a bit. But there are weeks to go until cut down time.

🌱 I think your plants look fabulous! 🌱

Don't worry she will fatten up.

[Jason]

I hope so. She covered with flowers, but not the density that would make me salivate in anticipation. But we'll see.

Your doing a good job Jason.

Nebula says to back down on the nutes as you approach the end of flowering, and I consistently use way less than is recommended.

ya your fine Jason they are looking great I get that tip burn I always thought it was because of the lack of N in bloom . on week 8 of bloom this last grow I watered with water and molasses like Nebula says and in 3 days my buds doubled in size and hardness so they will fill out if you give them the time

[Jason]

Thanks folks. I feel batter bout backing down on the nutes for that plant. The new problem is the buds are getting too heavy for the stems. They're flopping over. Bunches of them are flopping over.
I've tried some internal supports, which help, but I think I need to go aerial.
The Lavender 2 loves the full strength nutes. Both plants require a gallon of water added each day to a two gallon reservoir. Thirsty girls.

🌱 That's a great problem to have! 🌱

thats a great problem to have have you tried yoyos ,I use bamboo shoots pain in butt but it works, your in hydro so that wouldn't work , little late for a SOG , put a hook in the wall or ceiling and tie string to it that will hold your buds up.

That's a problem I like big ole floppy buds. Good Luck. Jason.

I think most of us would love to have that "problem"!

[Jason]

I can't take much blame for floppy buds. I think its more like good strain + good light/air + Water Farm + GH Trio + follow directions. That last bit is me.
This plant is very leggy, so I guess it has a lot of indica in it. The Lavender is more like a tree with large buds. No sagging there.
