It's gotta be light level. You got a par meter?
It was actually at close to 600 in the back corner where the plant was. Backed the light off and picked it up to about 3.5- 4’ away It seems to be feeling a little better. Defoliated the burnt leaves, idk if that was a good idea but we’re gonna see haha

Not to mention 600 isn’t really “way too” intense either. I mean maybe it is for blueberry ? Either way I backed them lights down and have seen a bit of improvement.

Looks like heat stress to me. Also, 600 is at the high end when still in veg. Some strains don't react well to intense lighting. Dim the light down to 500 and see how she reacts.

Also get yourself some Quillaja Extract 60. It has saponins and the extract acts as a wetting agent. It'll keep the soil moist for longer time periods without any dry pockets. I don't leave my house without it.

I use a spider farmer se5000. The first gen. upgraded with the uv and ir diodes (They've since removed the uv and ir diodes from the fixture). I have to keep mine at 24", at about 40%, or I start having problems. Funny thing is, they claim 8-12", at less than 82°f, in late veg. Anyways, turning down the light, always seems to help.

yea I’m learning as I go. First time having enough light to cause problems haha. not used to having access to “too much” light. But yea I think it’s gonna be fine, I’ve backed it off a good bit

Which light do you have? 4' seems kinda high. I would lower the fixture, and dim it down, if possible.
spider farmer 650W. Man honestly, I’ve checked the PAR, and it’s sitting at about 450, so I’m gonna keep her where she’s seated haha. I appreciate the input for sure, but I’m thinking the hotspot on my light was the issue. It was sitting at over 600 on that plant alone, and surprise, it was the only plant showing any issues. I defoliated some leaves and it’s looking a lot better. I’ll try and post a pic
