Yeah im thinking it has something to do with nitrogen. They arent getting crispy or any spots. Just losing all their color.
N deficiency will start from the bottom of the plant up, really doesn't look like N deficiency to me and I have had many N deficient plants. Hope it works out for you mate.

Yeah its mainly on the new growth. This is one of the toughest strains ive grown.

Yeah it's nuts how some strains can be so fussy and others would thrive even if you pissed on them!
I stopped growing Barneys Pineapple Chunk because it required an entirely different feeding regiment from all my other strains.

You will figure it out and get it sorted, and it could go on to be a winner.

Are you soil or hydro? I'm in soil and if I were in your shoes I would give a heavy watering of simple ph'd water and when the pot drys in 6 or 7 days give it a simple light feeding of fishmix and alg-a-mic, this is a sure fire way to get things back on track.

Im in hydro. Running this one in a single 3.5 gallon bucket with airstone. I just think this strain requires a really low ppm for some reason. I had it at 500 and it was burning the tips.

Sometimes it's easier to diagnose issues just as their starting to show, so if she was telling you shes being overfed by the burnt leaf tips she might not show these crazy symptoms she has now for two weeks or more. It can be hard to correct the problem because the damaged growth won't recover so you will have to wait for the new growth to showyou shes ok or at least be able to notice that the damage aint getting any worse.

The fussy ones can be a nightmare but when you figure her out it will be a breeze.

Us soil growers have it easier because the soil acts as a buffer so it's a lot harder to over/under feed, but when you hydro guys gets things dialed in you leave us soils peeps in the dust.

Best of luck.
