So I have 3 plants all from the Same clones, 2 are looking okay, they are a little yellow around new growth I’m not sure if I need to use more coco a+B but 1 plant looks so sad I don’t know his problem, they are in coco , HPS and around 17-22c and 40rh. Im really not sure what I’m doing wrong because I’m General slow growth and don’t look too happy, I water with 5.8-6.1 ph . But I’m obviously doing something wrong. More nitrogen or coco a? I’m not sure please help

Let me start by saying I know absolutely nothing about growing in Coco...

But I know a hungry thirsty plant when I see one. The droop is a direct reflection of not enough water. Or entirely too much water. Too much aqua and the plants roots drown and cant uptake nutrients. Not enough water and the plants tiny uptake roots die and the plant cant uptake nutrients...yada yada yada...

I'd say your temps are a bit low. So your plants not drinking as much, coupled with small plant, root zone in big pot. As well as your letting them sit in run off by the look of your catch trays and the evident salt build up.

Raise the plants.
Raise the temp.
Make sure lights are only off durin the warmest part of the day.

I'd consider adding h2o2 to your feed to add more oxygen to counter the lack of it around your roots.

Coco also looks compact, you'd of been better adding 30% perlite but its a bit late now

And just in case, if you happen to be on a concrete or tile floor then put something between that and your tent. Cold root zones not good

I would say every 2 days till run off with coco a + b 4 mil of each in 10l of water , then again when the pots feel lighter again, I know to raise the temp will try that but doing want huge bills from the heater , just don’t know why 2 look okay and 1 is so sad haha, also they have perlite just I put a few handfuls of coco on the tops :)

You should be feeding coco every day, sometimes multiple times a day. You’re in air pots, my guess is you need multiple feedings per day to prevent the coco drying out, coco should never dry out

Your air pots are also upside down. The top has the top two rows of closed cones pointing UP.

It's designed that way to create a small reservoir when you feed. Now it's creating a small pool at the bottom of the pot before draining out.

Also as mentioned feed those plants at least once a day.

Just lifted my pots up they are full of roots from the bottom could this be the problem that all the roots have gone streight to the bottom, the last time they filled the whole pot aah what should I do

I think your plants are droopy because of the way you have been watering, as long as you water the way coco is meant to be watered they will bounce back.
