Info bro, info. Why do you think you have K toxicity? Generally, you should flush whenever you feel like your plant has gotten too much of anything. 2-3 times the volume of the pots of pH'd water. Then give it a very light dose of nutes, like 1/4-1/2 strength. That should fix it IF it has gotten too much of something. If you don't feel like you've overfertilized it in some way then this may be a waste of time but it's a good place to start.

Too much K interferes with Magnesium, Manganese, Zinc and Iron. It looks like you could possibly have what looks like an Iron or sulphur deficiency so you could be correct. In any case I recommend flushing ASAP! Best of luck to you bro. bongsmilie
 
sorry forgot to post info ffof soil 1/2 teaspoon grow big 1/2 teaspoon tiger bloom 1 tblspoon big bloom fed after problem started 47 day old from seed only given nutes4 times and only twice the above dose in veg i gave tsp grom big two tblspoons big bloom
 
that looks a lot like a mag/ cal def. ide wanna lean toward mag. i had this EXZACT problem happen and it was cause i was watering the ph just a tad too low. i was watering at 6.5 and appearently my meter was off. cal and mag both wont get absorbed at 6.4 and lower. hope this helps a lot bro. good luck and lookin good. when you do add cal/mag or fix ur ph, affected leaves wont recover. look to the new growth to see if its fixed. goodtimez
