Overwatering in coco

Well in the beggining I was adding calmag but it started showing cal mag def. Then I read somewhere that adding calmag to ph perfect can actually cause calmag def because it throws the ph perfect off. So I stopped and it got much better. I will go with soil next since I have very little time to do the ph adjustments. So for now I think I'll just try to ride this one out. I am just surprised my last grow was so trouble free and got such a plentiful and great quality harvest using the same method pretty much. Anyway, thanks for your help!
waira will help you a lot more than me but i would now up your feed and she will take a week or more to get colour back in her cheeks just keep feeding to run off and good luck buddy

hey, you're the coco-nut, not me! :coco: I'd say you've covered the bases though,...

Odissey, coco is a specialized soilless medium, it can't be run the same as true soil or things will go sideways soon enough,... true coco is difficult to overwater because of it's physical properties (great draining namely), but it can happen,.. typically coco is always fed, never water alone, usually with a milder ppm solution; you must take pH and ppm going in, and generate at least 15% run-off each time, testing that for pH and ppm as well. This is how you monitor both salt build up levels and pH in-pot,...
I think the roots took a hit, which makes the plant shaky on watering responses and feeding,.. both over and under watering cause drooping but for entirely different reasons,... Did the pots have free draining, no sitting in saucers with excess? In any case, this could explain the whole deal here with wilting and paleness....
That Truncheon unit used a different TDS scale than most, so beware! Typical conversion is 1.0EC = 500ppm, Truncheon is 700ppm... TDS/ppm is not a standard scale, but EC is...
If you have a root tonic, start using that along with feeds; make sure they drain well, and start your in & out testing!

ive picked all this about testing ec and ph in the plant and out of the bottom from you I've been able to turn a good few right shit shows better just by using the right tools to grow weed them 2 meters take all the guesswork out of it but dont buy the cheaper ones there very inaccurate but work in a bind
 
One of the 1st things I learned about coco was you always feed nutes with coco.
and don't talk about Coco. Wait that was Fight club!
