Your plants are in full bloom and sucking up a lot of water. I bet they are drying out the coco too much between your daily irrigations. This results in some of the salts drying on the coco. When you water again, you rehydrate those salts causing the burn. So even though you are feeding low EC, you get burn.I water until 25% runoff daily.
I've tried feeding more but, it only burnt my tips and didn't stop leaves from dying.
Maybe 1.0 EC wasn't enough ? What range do you suggest ?

To fix the issue, I recommend you mix up a batch of your nutes at about 1.0EC. Flush your plants very well using this solution. This will reset the coco to the EC you want. Then begin 2 or better yet 3 irrigations a day. After a few days of multiple daily irrigations, reevaluate the plants condition and up the EC if needed.
Just so you know I’m not feeding you BS, these plants (3 different strains) are in week 7. They have been auto fed 4x a day since flip. 3x a day in veg. Currently feeding a 1.3EC. You are on the right track with daily feedings. But when they get big, it needs to be increased.
Thanks Chem, one more week then flush. I can’t wait :)Looking good E, some nice frost.
Here's a table of the EC values you should have, when soil is mixed @ 1:2 and 1:5 ratios with water.
Ok, i've done a slurry test and the result is 0.27 EC at 1:5 ratio. Seems fine to me.
My medium is still wet from yesterday but I'll try feeding 1.0 EC 3x a day nonetheless.
Good thing tap is free because that's 9 gallons a day.
Yeah, you’ll want to have a good source of water that’s not buying it from the store. Coco is basically hydro, although some people mistakenly treat it like soil. Watering every few days like soil will lead to issues in late veg and flower. A good rule for coco is:Ok, i've done a slurry test and the result is 0.27 EC at 1:5 ratio. Seems fine to me.

Looks like thrips but you would probably see smaller larvae on the plant in the creases and folds of the leaves and stems.
