First off, nice post, with good info.
To me, it looks droopy, I would guess due to overwatering since you gave some nice numbers for temps, and yes, a P deficiency, but it also looks hungry for N, unless that's just your lighting making it look really pale.
Here's a couple charts you can copy and save for future reference.View attachment 2755561

Like he said. He is pretty spot on. You are definitely over watering them. Add more N and P. You need to let the coco dry out 70% or so before watering again. With flushing you're making matters worse.

K so every other day like i have been then? Other than feeding it more and adding a little cal mag to the mix and waiting for it to recover before I flower is there anything else I should do?
tbh, pay attention to what the plants want as oppose to what you read on these boards.

from my experience, plants in coco likes to dry out just as much as plants in soil or any other soil less medium does. the key is to water/feed when it fairly dries out and feed appropriately.

if your ladies like to feed on a regular basis, you must find a happy medium (food strength) that will enable them to uptake without overfeeding.

if your plants like one big feeding in the beginning of the wk and smaller doses throughout the rest of the week, i would suggest feeding big, water (make sure you read the runoff to determine what's been used up), then feed in a smaller dose (appropriately).

if your ladies are light feeders, i suggest a very low but constant food regime. you see where i am going with this?
 
Over watering is in relationship to how much water you plants are using. I water mine every 2 days, as they need that much. Some set ups it's more like 4 days... But of course if you've grown the same way, and plants are suddenly deficient. That leads me to believe, that your doing something different with this one. Or it's just a very picky plant...

Something got misunderstood here lol. When I water it it weighs 20 lbs but 2 days later its 2 lbs. I was suggesting watering it every day instead is all.

So is it basically the bigger the plant in hydro the more nutes you gotta give it? Cuz the base of it is close to 3/4 of an inch in diameter and evert node is thick and juicy looking. I guess their feeding schedule doesn't account for vegging over 2 months lol

This is actually my first grow, I've just done quite a bit of research first and now I've got almost 2k invested. Lol. Was looking forward to flowering tomorrow but now in gotta get it fixed first. Lights just went off so I'll post again in the morning. Thanks for all the help and input everyone I'll keep this updated cuz I hate seeing dead threads that don't give conclusive info

Do not give them just water, always use full strength nutrients. Coco and any other hydroponics mediums have no lasting nutrients in them.
Always use Cal-Mag except for the last week. They only time you should flush is right before harvest to remove the possibly of a chemical taste.

This thread went all over the place in no time. This is just a simple fix, nothing off the chart like I have been reading. STOP flushing your plant, dial in your PH, feed with CalMag because your in coco and make sure your feeding the plant enough N-P-K. If done correctly, your plant will show results in a week or so. If the PH is off your locking food out. If your PH is ok, your lacking food so the plant is looking sad. Your nutrients doesn't have enough Cal and Mag in them to make up for the coco medium. You got this my friend :bigjoint:

Much bad advice about Coco here well beyond the shit marked above . You can not overwater coco once a root system is established for one , secondly allowing coco to dry out is a big mistake .. But continue on and let the newbs hash it out once again .. If you have grown in coco for years you would not be here misguiding others ..

lol. i am curious to know who are you talking too or about. i've been growing for a short amount of time and could tell you that some of the shit you're talking is a big mistake and would consider you to be the newb that hash it out.
