I have read the great thread from nick17gar along with many others but frankly I am still not clear on the differences between nute burn and deficiency.

As you can see we have dark leaves on the bottom, but the new growth is yellowing and curling. Here are the details:
So is this burn, or a deficiency, or something else? Any help appreciated!

As you can see we have dark leaves on the bottom, but the new growth is yellowing and curling. Here are the details:
- On 10/29 we bought some clones that were rooted in 6” dirt pots.
- Fed them with miracle grow
- Transplanted them on 11/17 to 4 gallon pots with 75% perlite - 25% vermiculite in order to get them going on Hempy
- Note that a lot of dirt came along in the transplant process, so I consider this hybrid-Hempy
- Switched to General Hydroponics Flora system for feeding, and we drain to waste – no re-use.
- Feeding every other day
- On 11/26 we got concerned over the leaf color and flushed with clean water
- Fed them again on 11/29
- Been on clean water only since then
- We pulled one plant to check the roots and found that no roots have grown out into the perlite/vermiculite; they are staying in what is left of the dirt
So is this burn, or a deficiency, or something else? Any help appreciated!
