Hi Leon, just looking at the image you shared, it looks to me like a potassium deficiency
Whether this is caused by a lockout or it's just that the plant is lacking in potassium, I can't really say..I have no experience with Advanced Nutrients.
Can you provide more pictures of the plant for us?

Nute burn...Your Ec is way too high @ 2.0...Give plain pH adjusted water for 2 days then reduce the Ec to 1.2

Something does not add up with this EC situation. Your comment about nutrient burn does not surprise me at all. However....... when I mix up the Advanced Nutrients blend (exactly as per the AN official feed chart that is on their website), I get an EC of 2.4-2.6 , hence why I went to 75% of the nuts. I would think that, in order to get an EC to 1.2, I would have to use a maximum of 50% of the Advanced nutrients...........so this does not make any sense to me.
Also, there are many EC charts for cannabis available and any of them that I have reviewed are similar or identical to the one I have attached from Royal Queen Seeds, which recommends EC levels of around 2.0 during flower.
To be honest, I have 4 more weeks of flowering before harvest and I will review the end result........but I am seriously considering moving away from Advanced Nutrients and going to an organic supersoil grow medium with an automated water system like Blumat.
