Identify what is wrong with these leaves, +Rep for right answer

so it was light burn thats what I was thinking

im aware of the answer, fairly obvious.
didnt really take a long look at the pics since you didnt need an answer =P

cocky didnt work out for me

bulb fell.....................

Alright it was burnt by being slid against an HPS bulb for about a split second.

The reason it is easily seen as light burn and not a deficiency or nute burn is because in nute burn isn't sporadic like that it starts at the tips also it does not get that dark brown without wrinkling or shriveling.

Reason why it is not a deficiency is because in almost all deficiencies it is very uniform and only one part of the plant is affected, either the veins or the out leaf or the tips, also that is growth toward the top so N def can be ruled out. Another point is that parts that are brown are way to brown compared to the rest of the healthy leaf it is part of. If it was a deficiency and it was far eenough along to cause significant cell death to turn the leaf that brown almost the entire leaf would look ill not just the tip of sporadic spots on the leaf

so where is my rep I said light burn.


never mind I just got it

How'd that happen or should I not ask...lol
Nevermind I read

I knew it was something along that line

I actually just burned a couple of leaves today by a CFL bulb. Should I leave them or trim the burnt parts?

Just leave them, if burned bad enough, the plant will dispose of them.

hey just a quick question when i saw the pics they looked anaweful lot like my plant. All mine is occuring at the tips though near where the light is. i just wanted to know if theres a sure fire way to tell that this is the cause.

Uh, ya....... move the lights up a little and wait a day to see if it stops.
You could also put up some pics so we can see what exactly it looks like in case it is something different.

so it was a light problem?

Yay! I was going to post burned by light but was apparently WAY late on the band wagon

its heat and possibly a little too much water has sped the problem up
