So I'm growing in coast of Maine growers mix. I am on day 31 with no added nutes. Been thriving on what is pre mixed in soil already. But my question is this morning I notice the very tips of the leaves turning a yellow/brown color. Can someone please inform me what this could be

It’s time to feed. She is low on Nitrogen (lanky stature). Brown tips - K deficiency, discoloured interveins - Mg deficiency (often in mix with Ca). If you see brown spots on leaves soon, that’s Ca deficiency which means you are already 3 weeks late, because Ca deficiency is not visible for first three weeks. So just feed her :)

Aiii! Since Mr. Incognito and I answered at the same time, I had not seen his answer... and I negligently did not look beyond the first picture... he's absolutely correct here.. my deep apologies!

I disagree with GrowingGrannie. The plant developed only 6 internodes in 4 weeks (!), and they are stretched. That’s clearly underfeeding if you didn’t make any serious mistake like watering without runoff. I hope that’s not the case, and you know you runoff ppm, that usually indicate the issue.

It's just a very small nute burn... but since you're not giving nutes and it hasn't popped up before, I'd say it was just a little dried out - certainly NOTHING to worry about... Good luck!
