When you use pure coco you have a media with an exceptional buffering capability. I would recommend when you try pure coco to only worry about ph going in and not about the ph coming out. Same with runoff. Be careful with the numbers because most of the time the numbers arent the correct representation of whats going on in the rootzone.
Contrary to popular belief coco does not need mag and cal buffering, read this article here https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=307683
and I recommend reading DJMs thread here too https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=300255
they are very good reads and should help you with coco growing.
Thanks again! Good stuff about CEC and how the cation exchange works.
I'm lucky to have my tap water around 0,15mS usually, for this reason I've always used a bit calmag to bring it up to 0,3mS before I've added the other nutes. PH was never a big issue and even the high start ph in the cup has adjusted itself within 2 weeks by just feeding with PH 5,6-5,8. Since week 2 the runoff PH drifted a bit but was always in a good range(>6 and <7). When runoff EC was 100-150ppms higher or 2 weeks were done I've flushed her with ~300ppms.

2nd link is a long read but has some pretty good tipps. I jump above other peoples posts and just read his answers but hell that's a long read. I really like his high humidity garden and his look at the VPD. He goes even higher than me..
