As I've never grown in coco I can't say much. But the plants look healthy just really small for their age.

Hello All.
Today is Day 12 for the ladies. They each were given 1.5 grams of MegaCrop and 2ml of calmag. As I’ve always used soil, my plants were always on the dark green side. In coco, the leaves are a lighter green. Is this normal or do I need to increase feed?

As always I appreciate your feedback

What EC and pH are you feeding at? Are the MC and calmag numbers per gallon? What really matters is the final EC/ppm. How much and how often are you feeding? If you verify correct feed levels then I'd look towards watering or light issues.
I grew with MegaCrop up until recently. It's an easy product that delivers some good results. All my plants were always super green using it. To the point of nitrogen toxicity on some strains. My issue with the MC was the inability to balance the nutrients. If you want less nitrogen you'd have to pick out the small calnit balls. Also the final solution mix didn't ever mix up to be completely soluble. My plan is to start an automated watering system and chunky solution clogs lines.

Ya increase but only small amounts @ a time or problems can arise, @ this stage I would be looking for 300ppm give or take and if they don't green up then more than likely the above post stated overwatering or even under watering can cause wat looks like this it use to happen to me especially in flower bc I could only water/feed 1 time a day so they would dry out on me.

Thank you @Fitzy @twentyeight.threefive . I don’t check ppm or ec. I increased the feed from 1 gram of MegaCrop to 1.5 grams of MegaCrop and added 2ml of Cal Nagic

What's your ph should be around 5.8 with coco
You really need to check the EC/ppm. Otherwise it's like trying to throw a bullseye with a dart after spinning around 3 times while blindfolded.
Veg recommendation from GLN for veg is 2.0g/gal. IMO that's high. Your plants are small and probably need only 1g/gal. But need an EC/ppm reading to know for sure.

I agree with this 100%. At least in my conditions it works perfectly. I'm completely happy with 5.7-5.8 pH as that's where I've had my best success.

Well I don’t have those meters yet. I will see how they react before feeding again. I may drop back down to just 1 gram of MegaCrop and still continue using cal mag. Wait! MegaCrop has that already in it. So confusing @Fitzy @Steviestash @twentyeight.threefive
