Even when fully saturated coco will hold sufficient oxygen. What EC did you give them yesterday?
Why do the leaves and stems look like this?

What's with this obsession with under watering lately? Every post has something like "250ml" or "350ml" in it. It shouldn't be rocket science to actually water a pot until saturation..
I swear you guys have created a serious issue revolving around underwatering due to all these out there scare tactics about overwatering...
I run off my 3 gallon pots of potting mix before I even put the seed in there lol, meanwhile everyones weeks Into a grow still putting a cup of water in here and there and wondering what's up.
I see like a hundred under watered plants to like one over watered plant lately, yet everyone is still dropping the "don't Overwater" line, but now every newbie is putting a single cup or two worth of water into 2 gallon pots of coco and wondering why their plants are dying.
If I had a dollar for every post lately where a cup of water every few days ended up the issue, I'd be rich just over the last few weeks here alone.

The same like posting charts about pH soil nutrient availability when nowadays most of the people growing indoor do hydro or soilless
every feeding will have run off moving forward.
Which Gavita light are you running?

I would check VPD and try to adjust if necessary
Everything is looking much better. I've been watering daily and watching for run off. I'm noticing my pots are super heavy, but they're not getting lighter for my next feed and the tops are turning green from algae. I'm planning on leaning it out for 1 - 2 days to see if I can get the tops to dry out a little before I feed.

You’re just asking for issues again…
Feed at least once daily. If you can do it as often as you can. The algae growth is from the moisture but also from the light. If you cover the pots you won’t get algae growth.
it started at 60 and every week we went up 20 percent.

Plants dont need that much light in veg..dial it down to 60%
With this being said, wouldn't be roots be oversaturated? I also noticed the heavier pots would have run off sooner than lighter pots. I always used the weight to gauge if the plant is eating or not.
I'll have to keep that in mind for the next batch. What's your schedule for raising lights? In week 6 I was at 105% with the Gavitas and keep it there until mid week 8, then went back to 100% to finish the run.

More terrible advice.
Ever grow a plant outside? Do you turn the sun down?
Plants thrive under lots of light and a great environment. Just need to get the environment dialed. I start seeds under a 1k or the great ball in the sky.
If the plants are struggling under the lights, something key is off, like watering, pH, rh, temps etc.
Get the basics down before spewing dumb shit.

I'm some places the sun is too intense to grow weed well in said climate.
