If that's over a month old, then you have failed big time.

If you want to treat something like soil, then use a soil.
Coco isn't meant to be used like this and we've had many people come here with countless problems due to following some YouTube dude.
There's literally no reason to use coco in this way. It doesn't benefit you or your plants and you are far more likely to have issues than not.
If you really want to be organic then using some coco to bulk out a compost works. But you need to build a balanced living soil.

This post makes me thing : “I’m following everything that this famous YouTuber is doing but my results don’t match - help” You’ve been led with bad advice, and following this method and route will just cost you money and time, and lead to frustration. Either choose to go the coco route, or switch to organics in soil. Coco and organic amendments is difficult to pull off and not recommended unless you understand both organics and coco growing. Coco has different properties and needs than soil. It’s not interchangeable with soil.
Just over a month old, roughly same age as yours, fertigated twice/day with GH Flora in 70/30 coco/perlite. If you dry coco your nutrient salts precipitate, burn your leaves and stunt your growth.

Mr. Canuck has your answers.
It would be nice not to have to mix and maintain reservoirs. I've been eyeing this stuff wondering if it would work:
ProRelease™ Warm Climate Container Formula
ProRelease™ Warm Climate Container Formula is a 100% coated granulated fertilizer formulated for warm conditions (WC). It is designed for crops such as hemp and other medicinal herbs grown in containers, raised beds, or fabric grow pots. Feeds for up to 4 months* at 90℉.

But after all the failed amended coco grows and no smaller amount I just keep on using my same old stuff.

Their old one, not the new updated one meant to sell nutrient.
I only use the Micro, Gro, Bloom and some CaliMagic

Since Amazon screwed up and I have a few quarts of Flora Trio, I need to start putting it to use. Saw the Grow Weed Easy schedule suggested on this site and planned to give that a try. Seems pretty damn simple.

Easy Nutrients: General Hydroponics Flora Trio Guide | Grow Weed Easy
For many people, nutrients can be a pretty confusing topic. Not only are there tons of companies to wade through, but some companies have multiple nutrient lines, extra supplements, additives, etc. And once you’re through with that, you still have to figure out how much and how often to feed...

I use their ratios and then just dilute until I hit the PPM I'm shooting for.
