I have grown in promix organically for years. Recently I took the plunge into coco after some research and advice from a buddy. My decision was based on coco's high performance nature, ease of watering and high oxygen holding capabilities. It just seemed like a great alternative to peat based mediums. So on 10/25/18 i planted 10 or so feminized seeds. They were started in 2'' square pots filled with coco. The coco was from bricks that I rinsed well and lightly charged with GH flora nutes. I should mention i use tap water that has a PH of 6.8 and 78ppm's. The nutrient solution was @ 255ppm and had a 5.8 ph. I did not use Cal Mag in the initial charging of the coco but started using it @ 1/2 tsp/gal in the waterings. I also slowly raised the TDS from 255 up to 600 over the course of a few weeks. Right from the start the seedlings were tall and leggy with very little foliage. I reacted by increasing the notes given and the plants responded well. However over the last ten days i have noticed what i think is a deficiency. If there is anyone who would care to try and diagnose what's going on I would be appreciative.
The plants are under a T5, temp is between 72-78, humidity between 55-65. air movement is sufficient. Lamp are 18-24" above canopy.
