Potassium deficiency in flowering? Burnt edges in flower—see causes and analyze fast.

Common Causes

  • Low K in bloom nutrients
  • pH lockout (too high or low)
  • Root problems limiting uptake
  • High calcium blocking K

How to Tell Which One You Have

Brown burnt edges on leaves, yellowing between veins, weak stems, small buds. Starts lower, moves up.

FAQ

Fix quickly?

Flush and feed bloom nutrients with higher K. Foliar spray for fast uptake.

Too much K?
