Here we go again! help please!!

Ehhhh.. I wouldn't take that exact approach, lol.. If you do nothing for the next few days, you're just gonna watch the problem spread and get worse. I would at least try a light flush and check the ppms/e.c. of the run off. If it's in the thousands (ppm) that's definitely the potential lock out zone. I'd flush until my ppms were at like 500 or so and start fresh from there...
Lol! Im a bit slow mate! just getting my head around it! I was going to chop em today but had a look this morning and they are such lovley plants! Budding oh so well So suppose tonight a flush is in order! They are 10litre pots so will put 20 to 30 litres through them??...so not a full on flush.. @Prophetiko would you say add a light solution of grow and bloom for last flush through? Say final 5 litres? Or just flush through with clean water and wait a few days to dry before adding nutes again? I appreciate your thoughts and responses.
 
I see a lot of people have problems with peat. Peat is in a way the exact opposite of coco. Coco works by being a hydroponic medium and not allowing you to over water as long as it drained. Peat holds many times it's weight in water and is harder to dry out than a sponge. Peat is for clones. Coco is for lazy hydro. I'm not sure they are a great combination.

What's the pH of your runoff?

I'm glad you decided to keep them alive! You'll never learn the art of growing if you chop at the first signs of problems! Not to mention you'll rarely have weed to harvest, lol! I'd done 30 liter flush. If this were a pre harvest flush, I could see using a light feed with the last few liters. But since you are wanting to correct an issue in the soil ( that we can't 100% pin point), I'd just use water only. Let the plants adjust for a few days then start back feeding at a light rate. Like 50% of the suggested dosage.
 
So 3 days on from flush and plants are still alive!....They have even grown and started to get a little frost on! They certainly dont look any worse for wear...So will see how the next week goes. They are still heavy with water but should be good for a drink of light nutes tommorow. Thanks @Prophetiko and for everyones replys.

:toke:- spots hugging the later veins, that Ca defc.,.... the coco may be to blame because it's a huge Ca hog (part of it's weird cation exchange capacity properties, needs to be saturated for proper give/take releasing).... feeds are pretty mild with an already mild (low NPK#'s) nute line,... soil richness is helping with that, but likely just defc. in Ca, so up that and see if the symptoms halt... it's so mild now, nothing to sweat currently!
