The MOST important thing I see is OverWatering (low O2), most likely caused by the Compact soil/Coco (adding perlite increases O2). If you dont want to transplant, you could take a strip of fabric (cotton/MicroFiber) and poke it into the bottom of pot, to pull moisture out.

The plant just looks hungry, and without knowing lighting schedule and temps, unable to determine if Coloring is Temperature induced or a sympton of Too Wet causing P mobility probs?

Since you just fed her for the 1st time, more WILL BE revealed over a couple days.

Please Pic Post any changes! WooHoo!

Peace
 
Who thinks im gunna have issues not ph'ing in coco??
Depends on the coir you got, if its canna coco you're probably fine, if not you might want to and if its anything other than canna i hope you flushed it! Also you might want to add a few mls of calmag every other feed water, to buffer the coco as it likes to lock out calcium and magnesium. I've noticed this helps allot. you can even add a few extra mls of calmag every feed water but i dont tend to do this as it can build up.

It really depends, i have gone days without ph'ing, then realizing i was locking shit out from measuring the runoff, but other times i'd go weeks without ph'ing with super great results.

I've switched from coir to mixing my coir with other substances like sand, peatmoss, perlite. and i don't ph anymore, then again i have RO water so my ph is around 6.5 and 5.9-6.2 when im done adding nutes and 6-6.2 when coming out of the plants bucket so that is pretty nice to have a consistant ph to work from but really just keep tending to the plants at hand and care for them as if they were your child if you think they need to be ph'd ph em. :) In the end do whats best for you and your plants.

Its not canna its some fair trade shit i found on amazon lol it says in the comments that it works like soil not coir wth no need adjust ph levels or buffer. I soaked it wit cal-mag'd water and put 6-7ml of cal-mag in every mix anyways. She seems really good atm got super white root out the bottom of the pot.
I think im defo gonna be buyin canna pro+ coco as soaking it nd stuff aint for me lol.
I know i should ph but atm i really just cant afford to get the kit.
Yh man my plants really are like my kids lol treat them all nice and love em while they grow up and hope they look after you later on eh.
