Hey Guntherfredo,
Nice to meet you man.
What type of light do you have, how many watts is it pulling from the wall, and how far from the canopy is it?
Also, is this a synthetic or organic grow?

Synthetic, coco, dye top feed, growers choice 720, I was pulling 505 from the wall I dialed it back to 4, feeding three times a day but they seemed to stop drinking as much, so I dialed it back, ppm of 550 for feeds I’m gonna up it a little to 600 and so twice a day, closest point from the diode to light is 16 inches I was tying them down but I think opening the canopy and exposing more fan leaves is making it worse, it’s not heat the lights don’t run that hot and I have a fan blowing over the canopy, and I have a sensor in between the canopy and out in the open temps are only at 76Hey Guntherfredo,

Is your water reverse osmosis or do you have a base PPM in them?

Base ppm of 50 to 70 it varies slightlyIs your water reverse osmosis or do you have a base PPM in them? Also, what light are you using?

Disclaimer, I would not call myself an experienced grower by any means.
With that said, your plants do not seem to be praying overly much and due to how many lower growths are experiencing similar symptoms I do not believe it is light burn - although this could be part of the problem.
If I had to guess I would say it's a little to heavy on the feeding side (especially if your TDS meter uses the 500 scale). I know of people who push their plants to 1800 ppm (700 scale) and have great results but those are for BIG girls very late into flower (this is for daily feedings).
If I were you I would leave the light on its previous setting and dial back the nutrients and see if the problem persists. If you change the light and the nutrients at the same time you may have some trouble telling what caused the problems.
Otherwise, your plants look great man. A couple of yellow tips here and there aren't going to do anything in the long run.
Best of lucky buddy.
