Possibly some light burn by the way your leaves are yellowing near the top only, the tips are crisping and turning upwards too. All signs of light burn. What kind of light do you have and how close is it?

wont be nitrogen deficiency on new growth, light stress is possible but i cant judge how close that is. Are you on 24 hours or 18-6?

I just experienced light burn myself for the first time several weeks ago when I got my new light! The leaves just tend to start looking old and tired despite being new before they crisp up. Slow light burn is still possible too so definitely keep an eye on it. Get yourself a good PAR meter that measures PPFD.

You’ve got a little nute burn it looks like from the leaves that aren’t yellowing the tips are browning. Check to see if your cal-mag has any nitrogen in it as that could be what’s causing it. Also the light color on the top leaves are classic sign of light burn.

I really think it’s overfeeding IMO. Light burn normally causes heat stress and I’m not really seeing a whole lot of those symptoms

Nitro burn causes the leaf to crisp and point downward in a claw. Light burn makes the leaf curl upward and crisp.

Use this chart to determine what you should right after you take your latest measurements. It is an extremely helpful guide that has pulled me out of situations I wouldn't have otherwise done with the readings I was getting.
