Not 5.8 water...but yes pH 5.8 feed. Remember, no plain water. If your input is higher than your output, in terms of pH, it may mean you have a little build up salt wise, but don't panic. Just keep feeding with 5.8 feed, each and every time you feed ( or water if that's what you call it)...

What is your medium? What are you feeding them? What is your pH?

As mentioned by @Dontjudgeme I would stop the foliar spray; it's unnecessary. What is your pH?

Patience grasshopper...it'll be fine.

Feed going in at a pH 7 is too high...regardless of what your run off is. I would dial in my pH before doing anything else or you'll end up chasing your tail.

What is your medium? What pH are you running? What are you doing for Magnesium? Are your plants genetically predisposed to show purple stems? The answer to your issues lie in the answers to those questions.

A few pointers... Stop using plain water...regardless of what you're reading from your nutrient line, plain water in a coco grow is no bueno. If the idea is to minimize salt build up, ratchet back your feed %, but don't feed plain water. Secondly, pH your feed to 5.8, and go....ideally it's...

Your pH is way off...hence the contorted leafs. Also, your perlite has algae on it...be sure your medium is draining well.

If your girls need feed twice a day, give it to them...but don't use plain water. If you think the multiple daily feeds are too strong, dial back your nutrient, but for sure, you're going to want to keep the feed going to them each and every time.

When a plant receives it's daily dose of light, it will in fact begin to wilt....like clock work I had a run doing it, and like many, I hadn't seen it before. I'm not sure if it was because I wasn't looking or what....but it seems I see it more often now. Never the less, if they're perking up...

Be mindful not to dampen off the plant with all the moisture...in other words, when they're that small, a daily feed isn't absolutely necessary, as long as the coco is still moist and holding water weight; it's a baby.

NOOO....you don't flush a coco grow. If you want to lower the pH...mix up a new batch of feed and be sure the pH is where you want it. Then feed your plants so you get plenty of run off, and by doing so you'll have essentially reset your medium...but never flush or use plain water...if you're...

Well, if the plants are eating, each time the feed goes through them it's going to change because they're pulling what they want from it, and leaving what they don't, which then goes into the reservoir and the process starts again.

Stop foliar feeding the plant...make it get it's feed / water from the coco. As noted, your pH is a little high; 5.8 is your sweet spot. I'm not one to check my run off, but being that you are, be sure your disparities between In and Out don't continue on your trend.

pH...check it.

I would think on a small recycling system like that, you'd be more apt to see pH and nutrient fluctuations, but I may be wrong.

Zinc deficiency; no. Those leaves are a result of Mg. Distilled water can have a very high pH, coupled with a soil pH of 7 and you may very well be out of line on your pH, which is causing the issue. I know you listed your nutrients, the question is, aside from the little dose of Cal/Mag (do...

I would encourage you to do one thing and one thing only at this point. Dial in your pH...7.4 is too high...you need to be @ 6.5. Once you get your pH dialed in, then give the plant some time to show deficiencies or not, otherwise you'll end up chasing your tail.

Honestly, they don't look bad. Maybe when they were younger they didn't like your soil (tips burned on some of the oldest leaves) but they look decent enough. I'm not sure I'd do much except watch them.

2 Plants, 1 Pot, No bueno You need to give more details, and show a full plant pic if you want serious considerations. Your stems are super purple...unless it's genetic, it's a huge indicator you're short on Mg, but since we don't know pH, growing medium, feeding practices, nutrients, temps...
