Hi newbie here, on my first grow with coco. I realised last night I been under feeding her by a fair bit, I give her a good feed last night and she looks so much better. Only problem is this has starter happening on the lower leaf last couple days. Could this be a sign of a nute deficiency?

Could just be from touching the soil my advice would be wait see what happens don't go throwing things at it trying to repair a problem that may not be there
 
I have ec pen and ph meter, ph has always been 5.8 and I've only been giving it a quarter dose feed as i got recommended so ec has been about 0.7 and haven't been gradually bringing it up to the correct amount as from what I'm reading at 3 weeks old it should be nearer 1.7 ? So last night i followed the coco feed chart and fed it that amount and seems alot happier today

I don’t follow a chart.

I use

Seedling 0.6
Early veg 0.8
Late veg 1.0
Early flower 1.2-1.4
Mid flower 1.2
Late flower 0.8

I feed every day until I achieve 20% runoff.

I also add additional Calcium from Canna Mono Calcium at 0.2EC every feed.


My mix consists of the following

Water start 0.2EC
CALCIUM up to 0.4EC
BASE NUTES UP TO DESIRED EC.
 
20 days old today, I belive it's quite small but probaly lack off food hasn't helped

Sounds weird.

Maybe adding the ph down is causing some precipitation of nutrient ions from your source Water??

Just a guess ofcourse.

As some things can antagonise nutrient ions etc and cause them to fall as solids to the bottom of your mix.
