Color in the plants seem off, thoughts?

I see a lot of coco/soil runs now lol.

That's what I run primarily, but with a few other amendments.

The plants are fine but you need to drop that ph. If you are running a 60/40 soil to coco blend you need to water between 6.0-6.5.

I like to test my water ph swing too, because of extended watering times.

Not if you are doing it right lol. Don't mean for that to come off dickish.

Treat it like soil. Even straight soil I run a 6.0-6.5 ph, just easier for the plant to put it where it wants it. The coco just keeps air in there and holds mostly water over nutes, so the plants can get a drink when they want easier.

Feeding, top dress should be your best friend. Helps retain the moisture in the coco and it's leach to feed, which makes it so easy to adjust your nutrients.
