Around 23 to 25 deg c 50% rh is good numbers to head for good VPD then the plants will start working taking up the nutes n moisture. Ok all good have fun I’ve got to get to my grow shed I gardeners life is never boring . Cheers Cobba regards OD.

Feed your plants from the bottom. Wet medium on the top only invites bug to lay eggs. If you haven’t seen them they are there.
secondly coco doesn’t get watered everyday. Feed it due to the weight of the plant. If your plant is light it needs watered. If it is heavy to mid light do not feed. Plants can take a light pot depending on size. The bigger the plant the more it’s going to drink and more frequently. And keep ph between 5.9 - 6.1
Let me know what it look like in about a week.

These are getting fed three times a day mate and nothing up with these .
I used to feed in coco when pots were light. Salt builds up in coco raising ec causing all kinds of problems thats why me and othrt ppl said water every day to run off in coco.
I get wa ur sayin becus yjeu look over wateted but out of about 15 only three ar droopingan they are all gettinf fed everyday

I’m sorry but I have to kindfully disagree
I’ve been in coco for over 15yrs.
You posted your problem and it’s definitely a overwatering issue. Even a few others mentioned your watering issue. I take it you haven’t been doing this for too long hense the problems. Coco will tell you when it needs watered not the other way around. Coco is notorious for sending growers back to soil. Ph is the second most important thing with coco. Make sure you have 2 because if they read different then you know you have an issue

I.done coco for four years i was watering it like u was saying to start off when small water thenw ait til light then water again.
Then i camr across someone on eya who drip feeds multiple times a day and up to 6 times in flower and hwa getting really gd results.
Obviously strain dependant as i only have 3 droopy ones out of two tents.
And yeh i chek ph and ec mate every time. Ive tried evwryfinf and watered everyday and droopy ones aint changing. Only fing can do is let them dry out then see if that works.
Do you feed to run off everytime to stop salt build up or do u jus feed low ec all the time mate.
Appreviate your advice. And il let u no how they look once i let them dry out.

Also forgot to say the 2 out of 3 droopy ones was light as f**k. And needed potting up so i fort it was because they was root bound. Potted them up gave them good watering an stil droopy. I try and get more pics after
