Hello everyone,
I am a newcomer and trying to grow my first weed. I use both sunlight and indoor lighting since i still have plenty of sunshine over here. I grow in soil. After topping my plants last week, yellow/brown spots started to appear mostly on the edges of some leafs. I used some nutrition in the last couple of waterings. I suspected a nutrition burn and 2 days ago i flushed the whole soil with ph'ed water hoping to cure the problem though it looks like the spots keep getting more. Experienced growers, please help.

In all honesty, I don't see anything that looks like all that horrible. Just keep watering with plain water, it should be fine unless it really starts progressing

Thank you for the quick reply Hawk. Does it look like a nutrient burn to you? I am not sure about the diagnosis and the situation has worsened a little more after i took the photos. because i don't know shit about growing i thought i flushed the babies enough the other day. today i heard that more water should be used while flushing so i had another flushing session today. i'll keep checking whether the situation gets worse or not. any suggestions with about nutrition afterwards? Because today i learned that flushing deprives the soil of all nutrients and that i will have to use them after recovery.

They look fine to me nutrient burn would be more prevalent it would be on almost every seration and tip and would be darker and curling it looks to me like just a couple damaged spots that dried out over time

You should be using Nitrogen based fertilizers for vegging.
But yea, like they said, don't worry too much about those spots. She looks pretty good for now.
