Minor Nutrient Burn or Deficiency?!

I’m showing some brown tips on plant, with some spotting on leaves. Plant is coco, so fed daily with calmag and half strength nutrients. Perhaps lower nutrients or stop additional 3ml per feed of calmag (coco nutrients should have calmag already)?

Lil too much nitrogen

I think it could be calcium antagonized... Usually N toxicity expresses clawing first.

yyou could try 1/4 strength nuts and see how she go's, plants will grow quite well with way less nutes then the manufacturers sugest

You feed daily so:

1 - What is the EC of your feed? Half strength means little since different companies have different doses, but EC is EC.

2 - What is the runoff EC?

In daily fertigation coco, the ratio between feed EC and runoff EC (assuming your pH is in check) will tell you what you need to do well before a deficiency/toxicity visually shows itself.

This what I meant when you had a thread saying I do everything the dtw coco guys say not to do and still dont get issues. That sounds like a shot but Im not gonna repeat all that. In a way that thread was a shot too at us. Could be many things based on that.

What I will say it looks fine but if you did do what we tried to tell ya, youd have this down by now.

Its hard enough for others to help me because I have everything on lock. Hell Im the one diagnosing and fixing things now. When I dont get an answer I learned it very well could mean no one knows. Based on quick responses when I post something they do know.

Ive been getting help from AI to some degree and got some valuable insights. It could be environment, good old vpd everyone used to talk about always.

Last I checked to sum it up you had like 5 things off. Pot is too big which wont raise yield its just harder to take care of. You dont feed enough daily and to good runoff, you dont check ec runoff numbers. Adding calmag where its not needed. Dont make sure the nute dose is strictly consistent.

Id prepare my own coco to root out water logged, It can happen easy and could even overwater coco pretty easily. They say the opposite in mainstream areas but its not true. You can get bud rot this way.

Have any of these things been improved since recently? More info the better as usually its grower error. When I found my own answers it was because I didnt provide that info. Could be environment, could be neglect with bleach, could be water source. VPD off, etc.
