@UncleFester Painted nails is your plant showing that you’ve reached her upper feed limits.
I’d be a bit concerned about the 6.9 runoff where you’re in coco. Should be a lot closer to what you’re putting in.
5.8 being ideal.
Are you watering to approx 20% runoff each time you feed ?
If not , you May need a quick flush and reset to get the runoff #’s back in line.
@StonedCold13 I see you had a peek.
. Any thoughts ?

PH too high

I agree with those above, I like to sit at a 6ph and let it bounce a few decimals, no clawing or drooping so it looks like she is thriving. I know some people do two days of liquid nutes and one day “flush” to keep your nute levels a bit more in check, but she looks absolutely stunning all things considered!

Wooo we, them gonna be some cola’s right there. They are already shaping up beautifully
This is my third grow using Coco and i’m not going back to hydro or soil, i noticed the PH out was hign on those two.
She’s taking in about 2 gallons a day with a 20% runoff and i’ve been flushing weekly using SLF-100.
Should i start thinning out the lower fan leafs?

You could start removing a few but I wouldn’t go too hard on them just yet.
Buds are just starting to take shape and don’t want to slow their development any.

Feed coco daily Grow Bro with liberal run and discard the run off immediately. Don’t let the plant wick back in the run off salts from the synthetic fertilizer, this can have a big impact on PH control

I learned my lesson with wicking so i’m using a plant stand to sit the fabric pot on so its always above the catch pan.

Like Dell touched on, coco must be fed daily, often multiple feeds a day to keep the PH in line, Low took me to school on this my first coco grow, my PH climbed no matter what I fed in. It was my frequency that was causing it, the nitrate nitrogen being used caused the PH to climb, frequently feeding to runoff kept the used salt flushed out and fresh in, my ph came right back in line and stayed good after that.
