I see growth in the same day, its amazing to be honest and i know i could made them better and they could be bigger, and its cool to see the skunk and the super gold competing.
Apart some purpling in the petioles and bases of the stems and some defs here and there i guess it could be worse

Day 18
By the runoff the super gold is the one that eats more, even tho the skunk is the one that is the most pale and seems to want a stronger feed. Lights are now at 50% at a distance ranging from 55~50cm, the rh is now harder to climb up, and its around 60%. Run off ph is at 6 for everyone and seems to want to go 6.1, i may be under phing so ill take a closer look at what i do, its that or from the water, will see.
Yesterday i added more mgso than usual and they got better so i raised the mg by 10ppm in the fresh feed to see how they get
Peace

End of day 18
At the run off today the speed is at 6.1ph, everyone else still at 6, but yhey look way better after the added mg yesterday.
I sniped the leaflets of them all since they usually just add almost nothing.
The hungriest by run off is the Super, visually is the Skunk(biggest leaf), the Amnesia is is the middle and the speed a bit less

End of day 20
Usually i feed them 1l everyday, they take usually around 700ml, the rest is runoff, today without watering yesterday, they needed almost double.
Run off ecs and ph is around last times
With the light at 50% and a warmer weather with lower rh i cant pass 65%
Skunk, lower branches want to reach the light and pass the fans. 2 days after cuting thr leaflets new growth was hapening in the cotyledons, i sniped them
Super, lower branches also want to go up, new growth on the cotyledons also sniped

Speed, sniped the leaflets and their new growth
Amnesia
They all smell a bit now, mostly green, but i start to feel some sweet arome from each of them and in previous grows at rhis time they were much less developed and already showing their female parts and this ones not even a single slight pistil in sight
Under 4k sil where all the others were under flash

6.1 coming out is okay. Don't mess too much with pH going in to chase whats coming out.
For me right now a fresh tank is 5.7-5.8 and will swing up to 6.0 by the next day. Testing run-off I rarely check pH usually for peace of mind or curiosity but as long as its within a reasonable range its fine.
Are you using bio stimulants because they are usually more acidic.
It seems that the pH level is related to the brand or batch of coco. I've tried 2 other coco brands and I ditched them both for canna because I didn't like the results. One of them was way more free draining then Canna so that means another adjustment.
I did some test now to compare. Going in was 5.7pH 800ppm:
Seedplant in a red cup = 6.4 + 800
Chem @2wk flo = 6.1 + 750
Headbanger @2wk flo = 6.1 + 650
(Does anyone want to talk about my HB being minus 200ppm..)
That's just my 2c.
Looking good big bidness man

I make my res and ph to 5.5 because i know when i use it in the next day it will raised +/- .4points, 2 days usualy more .2 to .3; i wonder how much my water will drift the coco itself, dunno if im talking right.
I used biostimulants, one is ph 9.2 but they started the drift before it and i have algamic that sits at 4 if i remember right.
For curiosity, i wasnt expecting your HB to eat that much?or you think is other thing?

The skunk didnt droop out, more or less rh, more or less temp, more or less nutes, more or less light, it always droopy, seems dont have the strength to get up, the only one like this.
Lights are still at 50% and its now at 50cm and reducing as they grow even tho i notice them stretchong less as time goes by
