Trying everything I know help needed

No idea what's going on, I'm feeding enough to keep the Cocos damp not wet, Nutes are at 900ppm I'm still getting the claw and yellowing on the leaves. The plants seem to be growing well enough but not filling out and not quite as fast as normal. I don't know what to think. They aren't dieing but they don't seem happy.

Unfortunately, as a plant looses it's leaves while still growing you also loose yield. The plants often grow tall with no real new growth except at the top.
A pic of the plant "might" help. Good luck...
 
Here they are...I have tested the soil PH and its about 6.0 The water temp of the feed water is a bit cold at about 2 deg C! Its winter time here. The temp range in the room is from 23.7C down to 16.4C = 7.3 degree drop when the lights go out so this may add to the problem. I have switched the exhaust fan to come on only when the lights are on as this will keep the room warmer during the off period.

Today I have added Superthrive as directed on the bottle and hand fed them 9L shared between all plants. I will maintain this feeding cycle for the next few days to see how things go.

It could be anything with the mix and nutes your using. Red stems, drooping, yellowing slow growth etc The cheap coco is the main issue here bro.
Next grow use this stuff and you wont go wrong, no ph testing and great results with almost no issues, great for beginners.

About Terra
High yields
There's a reason experts through-out the world use CANNA Terra for cultivation. Many see this as one of the more natural cultivation methods. All CANNA TERRA products are designed to work with each other to create the best possible results.

For in- and outdoor cultivation
The CANNA Terra range has been developed for cultivation both indoors and outdoors. For optimum results CANNA Terra nutrients should be used in combination with CANNA Terra Professional Plus medium.

Quality proves itself
CANNA Terra was developed for cultivation in soil. CANNA Terra remains unequalled due to its revolutionary one-part Terra formula and the high standards that CANNA sets during production.

The natural method of cultivation
CANNA’s fertilizers have a bio-topical effect. They are absorbed by the plant’s systems in a natural way. CANNA Terra ensures that there is an optimum balance in the plant cells, and also increases resistance. Opposed to many other fertilizers, CANNA Terra products are absorbed quickly. This high degree of absorbability means that the plant only has to devote a small amount of energy to this process, which enables it to focus completely on growth and flowering.

Very user friendly
CANNA Terra has one-part nutrients for growth and flowering stages. This ensures that the correct dose of nutrients is available for each stage of the plant’s cycle. In addition to this, CANNA Terra’s composition and dosage is designed in a way that also new and inexperienced growers will achieve excellent results.

Not recommended on bulk grade peat products that lack a nutrient starter charge and longer term pH control.

Ohhh im dobbing on you!!!!!!!!!!. Bet you used to get your ass kicked daily at school.
 
I doubt its over watering as I have only been feeding them once a day and they are in exactly the same stuff as Canna Coco just a different brand. Im thinking its more of a deficiency than over watering most likely N. I have tested the soil and run off at a PH of about 6.0
 
Because I am trying everything I know to fix it and Im not having any success so a healthy discussion to eliminate the possible causes was needed to make sure I didnt make things worse.

this is not always an accurate way of testing soil. they do look N deficient but they still shouldn't be drooping like that. where is the pearlite in your mix? i see nothing to give the roots air space....

You can get all kinds of symptoms from overwatering. You are locking out the nutrient uptake ...so yeah...they might need some N. After they recover from being doused everyday.
 
They are growing in straight Cocos with a 5inch space at the bottom of the pot. They are also in two pots. I just had a dig around in the soil and the roots seem to be ok. The soil is moist but not damp or wet at all kinda the same as when you get it out of the bag. I'm getting probably about 5 percent run off and the pH is fine in both the soil and run off.
