Some of the leaves on my plant are getting these dry tips with sort of yellowish spots. What causes this?

FWIW, various LLMs seem to think this is caused by nutrient imbalance, specifically potassium deficiency. That potassium deficiency can also be a knock-on effect from overdoing it on calcium or magnesium affecting potassium uptake. Finally, another thing to consider is pH testing the soil. If you're using a nutrient mix, you might need to flush the soil and start over (especially if you over did it). If you're not using a nutrient mix, you should consider doing that.
