Bro in short u need to start super light nutes plus water more often but way less. U are overwatering. Your coco should dry out before watering. Not dry but sponge like. Coco needs nutes after 1st week. Use weight test others mentioned or learn to read your plants mood. They will ask for food or water. Watering from bottom a couple times a week helps with salt build up and keeps all spots of coco from drying. Once u figure out the coco u should be watering it once a day so cut way back on the amount til works out. Rt now u might even give them (tsp)drops of water multiple times a day. Dont transplant til the get big enuff root mass.

You should probably stop giving advice on coco.

Coco should never be allowed to dry coco should never be given plain water
My buddy feeds coco once a week and has 7 ft plants inside. I feed every other watering unless its cal mag or molasses. Daily feeds will burn your tips til u dial it in correctly. Its a waste of resources unless your plant is asking for more with yellowing then increase.

You giving improper coco watering advise isn't sound. I dont even use coco but have been around these forms long enough to understand how to use coco. Not listening to just anyone but very experienced coco growers.

Just a couple of examples

Mickfoster gives some of the best coco advise I've seen

U really speaking on what u never experienced.
Do u realize every grower customizes to there set up and environment. If u find 2 dudes doing it exactly the same let me know.

Just. Stop.

Everything you’ve said about coco so far has been wrong. I’m sure your buddy does lol. If he’s feeding coco once a week he’s a moron too.

Yea however most follow basic medium instructions that's with anything coco soil hydro

Also didn't say I've never experienced I said I dont use coco. I have for me it was too much babying watering and feeding so much. I prefer watering once a week and feeding once a month

Why are you watering with molasses?

If you only had the one plant in 3x3 shoulda pulled a pound if you had it wall to wall.

Haven't flowered in my 3x3 in awhile but using fluorescents with eye hortilux power veg bulbs that's averaging a pound. 4oz a plant. If you stretched one plant wall to wall youd pull the same.
