I don't know what's wrong with my plant, first time time growing in coco

Hi,

I'm having some trouble with my plant and I don't really know what's going on with it, I don't really write down when I start growing my plants/when I switch to 12/12 but I think this is about 5 weeks into flowering?
When I started growing it, I messed up the time schedule, instead of going for 18/6 I went for 16/8, I always had trouble with this plant so far but it's also the first time for me growing in coco, the leaves always kinda looked pale/light-green ish and I especially tried to not overwater it for that reason.
I lift the planter and I only water when the leaves are starting to droop a little or if the planter is really light.
The PH of the medium is around 6.1 to 6.2ish and I'm using GHE FloraCoCo 4-0-5 and 1-6-4 with a little bit of PH-down. The temperature has always been between 24 - 26°C and humidity constantly between 50 - 55%.
Do I need an EC-Meter to check if there's enough nutrients in the soil? What do you guys think?

Oh, and I don't really know what strain it is.. :)

I would say a simple N def. But don't go adding too much now in flower. Too much doesn'thelp either. Raise the nute with the higher (N)pk. And yes, an ecmeter would help you know how much you are feeding. And you can measure runoff EC as well.

Do you have a suggestion on how "much" to add of which fertilizer? Or how much nitrogen? I do have a fertilizer with about 7%N 3%P2O5 and 6% K2O

Well without knowing ec's and stuff is hard. A bit more than you are giving right now. And from the one with the biggest N ratio compared to the other 2.

Yes always use an EC meter in times of trouble. When you see a leaf start to the bronze you need to do a pour thru and collect some of the run-offs and test the EC and pH. The run-off results will almost always tell you what's wrong. 😎
