Coco looks really dry in that first pic. Are you feeding them daily? Did you buffer the coco before using it? Is there any perlite to aid in drainage?

Coco should be fed daily and to approximately 20% run off. Mix your nutrients to 900-1000 PPMS and PH to 5.8-6.0. No need for water feed if you feed to liberal run off daily :love_you_gesture:

Some really good information these guys are giving you here!
Coco is very different than soil and cannot be treated the same.
Daily feeding is a must, sometimes multiple.

@Bando_Budz93 Also go check a site called “Coco for Cannabis” they cover all the do’s and don’ts for growing in Coco. A lot of good advice in there from buffering / seedling / cloning / veg / flowering.

Feed daily Grow Bro, coco is inert and only has what you put through it :love_you_gesture:

If you’re good at hydro, treat it the same.
The coco is your reservoir, ph will swing as minerals are removed. Feed again to bring balance.
