Coco noob and seedling

Hi. This is my first try with coco. I start seeds directly in canna coco profesional. All seed sprout but don't look good. Ph 5.8 ec 0.4 including tap water. Temp is little low around 68-70. Rh 50%. I give em one feed with hesi tnt complex 1/5 strength. Tap water is 0.3 ec.
I think to wait until coco dry and then I will give em only tap water if they survive. Is this option is good or I do something wrong?

Hi there, it looks to me that the little plant just needs some food. Up your ec and it will take right off. Maybe set your pH to 6.0 - 6.1 when feeding this time. Let us know how it progresses!

Check out CocoSativas grow, he works with cannacoco with very nice results!

I also flush one plant with tap water and run off is 0.4 ec. Ph is 5.6. I start to think this problem come from overwater or overfeed with one dose of tnt complex. 0.1 ec over my tap. If someone help me and teach me what to do I will be very happy. Thanks

You don't say if you're organic or not, anyway some Bio Bizz root juice will lift that little fuckers spirits, also put your pH at 6.2 and leave it there throughout the grow

I always start my seeds and clones off in a 50/50 coco potting soil mix, that way I don't have to feed for 10-14 days

I'm not experienced with that specific brand of coco but most of them come 100% inert. You are going to have to use nutrients straight from the get go when using pure coco. If I were you I would feed @ 30-40% strength for at least the next two waterings. I haven't popped any beans in quite a few years but my clones get 100% strength as soon as they go into their first pots. Honestly, with H3ad's modified lucas formula, I never even flush with fresh water from rooted clone to until just before harvest

Feed the plant!

Fix pH! 6.0 - 6.2

I am not guessing here. There isn't any nutrients in your coco, the plant is feeding on itself. Please just feed the plant with a light nutrient solution, properly ph'd.

Good luck!

Tends to happen alot in fresh coco with seedlings, i normally flush my coco with light nutes and cal-mag until then runoff is clear and free from small particles.
I also let them dry a little more when your roots arent fully established. HOPE THIS HELPS
This is just what I do hopefully you can take somethin from it :)
