I feed every time and just once a dayThe yellow on the edges looks like heavy N. Looking at megacrop numbers I question the use or need for cal-mag at low light levels.
As the commercial said. " It's in there "
Wondering about the watering on a bucket of coco. I do not run coco but I hear stuff. 700 seems high for a small plant. Do you feed every time and at least 3 times a day?
Hopefully a coco grower will chime in.
Here’s how it looks today, that picture was about 3 days agoI feed every time and just once a day
I’m using the fox farm cultivation brand 70% coco and 30% perlite, runoff ppm is 297 and ph is 6.4Ok I will try to help. First what type of coco ( brand ) and did you prep it? Any amendments? What is your runoff ec/ppm and pH ?
Yes I feed every day, 5ml cal mag 1/8 teaspoon of mega crop, thought since I’m growing in coco I have to feed everydayYou feed every day? I hope you're using a tiny amount. I'd back off the feed from the way that plant looks. For the record most people feed more like once a week.
This is how it looks now in natural sunlight that picture was about 3 days ago, I’ve been foliar spraying it with 400 pm of cal mag and giving it 1 liter of water with cal mag alsoYou feed every day?

Since you're running coco, reduce your "feed pH" to 5.8-6.0. You're in an innert media that has a natural pH at about 7.5 so lowering the feed pH should get more nutrient uptake.I’m using the fox farm cultivation brand 70% coco and 30% perlite, runoff ppm is 297 and ph is 6.4
