Been watering when the media is dry. Getting many lower leaves looking like this:

Looks like there is leaf twist pointing to a pH issue.

Also looks like the feed is too hot. Starting to burn the leaves.

Flush, with 1/4 strength nutrients, significantly. Make sure the pH is around 6 for the flush fluid and in future waterings.

Another tip is to not let your coco mixture dry out. Should be keep moist. Like you said an airy mix, has plenty of air even when wet. When it drys out too much it causes PH swings which relates to what Lester was alluding to.

Hope this helps and may all your Buds be Huge.

Thanks.
I forgot to list my ppm's and ph

PPM about 800
PH 5.8

Interesting that letting them dry increases causes ph swing.

I'll do a flush and then start them back with a little less ppm, though the manufacturer claims 800 is a safe level.
