With coco you either have to water more than once a day or let them dry out a bit like soil till roots are established so they get enough oxygen. I water like soil till the roots are good and grown

I think it looks like a magnesium deficiency and one of the symptoms is leaf tips curling up along with interveinal chlorosis and as it gets worse brown spots appearing on older and middle growth leaves first.
Epsom Salts will supply Mg and S and the stuff you get at the drugstore is just fine only make sure it is unscented with no other additives.

Yeah or longer than a few days when the pot is light to pick up. Over watering causes nute lockout

Yeah. Epsom Salts. Can usually find a little 1 pint/ 500ml size milk container at the drug store for a few bux. I get the huge clear jug ones for use as a hot bath soak.

Shouldn't be. I'd maybe get them in proper mix and maybe larger pots if these are the clones in smaller pots.
Generally the best way to deal with ailing plants when you're not positive about the problem is to rehome them with fresh medium that has a well balanced nute mix. In the case of hydro a fresh batch of nutes and maybe a different brand or fresh bottles can get them all fixed up. Very hardy plants and what's happening to yours is so far a minor issue.
You can take a well established plant in say a 1 gal pot, cut the rootball down as small as a pint and stick it in fresh soil and have it looking better in a few days to a week. I've been hacking back rootballs for ages every time I repot.
They're a long way from being a lost cause so have a toke and chillax.
