Ok, so i know that a really common problem encountered while growing is nute burn or over fertilizing. I believe that I am encountering that problem now. However, how do i know for sure whether it is nute burn or nute defficiency? Both seem to have similar symptoms. Its obvious to tell b/c you can just look back and see if you've given it ferts or not. But I didn't fert my plant for about a week and a half (then the leaves started showing some yellowing so i thought it was nute deff.)and when I went back to the ferts the leaves really started yellowing and dying. The plant was loving the nutes up until the fertilizer break and now it seems to really be suffering. What's the deal?
