What's up everyone,can someone please lead in the right direction, I'm getting terrible spots on some of plants... I'm in coco,and my ph meter for soil is reading 6.7 to 7.0 and I thought it might be a lack of something ,or maybe excess, or maybe light burn ,I'm running a mars hydro ts-2000,and a blurple 1200 watt king led. My temps are always steady at 76 degrees, my humidity does stay around 40 to 45 percent. Any advice helps and I'll answer as many questions as I need too to figure this out,they're not great ,but not all is lost yet and I'm trying to avoid all of this before I flip.... ph last night on my watering was 6.2 ph with quarter strength of fox farm,only big bloom and grow big. My ec reading was 1.1 ec going in

What nutrients are you using, at what ppm and what pH going in? What water ppm do you have?
Last watering I've dropped my ph to 6.2 going in,my ppm last night was 1.1 ec....fox farm,but I started using a quarter strength with the Hope's that it will improve, it was only last night, so its gonna be hard to tell this quickly if its improved.only used grow big and big bloom last night too.

Was also told to ignore ec runoff readings.. listen to your plants and my plants are telling me they are or were hurting

For coco, pH 5.8 to 6.0 is the sweet spot.
What i see are brown dots that are characteristic Ca deficiency indicators. I think you need to add some cal-mag. Make your total nutrient EC 0.8 to 1.0 is my advice.

How are you measuring the pH of your nutrient solution prior to pouring it on your plants?
