That is sounds good. So what approx amount of water should be given daily for now like 50ml each only around the plant?
water until you see a little run-off. 300 watt cfl, gets quit hot, so keeping it too close may hurt the plant, put your lamp as close as possible, but dont let temperature between lamp and the top of the plant go beyond 30C.

For sure 300 watt cfl will do 2 plants fine, but yield of each plant ill be reduced, depending on the strain, there is a big chance that finale yield of both plants will be greater then yield from 1 plant. I would recommend spread all this watt between severely light bulbs to get maximum from your plants.

So even if plant is so small in a big pot the amount of water needed to make a run off is not to large and will cause plant overwatered?

COCO is very hard to overeater, the oxygen ratio to water is always greater as long as you have a good drainage.

Hoping that 300w will handle 2 plants. I am sure that they should have enough lumens for now as they are small. 3 inches from light is ok?
I grow with only cfls and all this talk of 3-4 inches is hog wash stretch your plants up put em 8 inches force them to stretch and then lower them after few more leave sets grow in. in my experience anything that close slows growth it also will prolly fix ur droopy leaves as they are being lazy as they don't have to reach up. I bet within a day ur leaves looks better just m2 cents.

100 watts per plant and 50 for each additional should be fine

Thanks mate. That's how they looking this morning. I just moved light further to about 6-7 inches and let's if this is going to improve anything. They just look a bit sad and small.1429853980814-1229178668.jpg I will keep an update by posting a photos.

Pots are having a holes and there is a bit of perlite as well ( think that should be more) so what else you can do for a drainage?

They are looking a bit better today. I can see the roots through the holes at the bottom of the pots they are trying to get out haha. I might give them some water tomorrow or day after. Let's see. Will keep updating.

Cheers bud!
They are for most of the grow in that colours. Not sure why. Let's see in a few days and after watering tomorrow's watering. I will give them about 500ml of nutes unless don't see the run off so I will give some more.

yea Id go for some run off. imo if you haven't ran off any water there's some stuff stuck in the soul that needs out :). the yellowing could possibly be a def. of some kind but I haven't used nutes on grows( as long as I don't got a def).

I gave them today around 800ml of nutes. I didn't see any run off. Should I still put more water? There is no drainage or simply there is not enough water to cause the run off yet in 11L pot? Thanks

Actually now I gave even more so around 1.5L each. No run off either. Any advice on that one?

Over 2L each and run off done. So hoping that is going to be ok. Again they are looking a bit sad and the one on the right definitely to yellow. If this was lack of nutes then should be sorted n1429947715045-100452825.jpg 1429947715045-100452825.jpg ow. Will see them after 8 hours if hey improve.
