Wondering when to add nutrients in coco? I heard after 3rd set of leaves. Some people say after 1st set. I use reverse osmosis with a mineralization filter although I have no idea what minerals are in there. My EC meter did not work when I received it.Week 1

although it's a great harvest if you compare the 2 same plants they are totally different in color of buds.
Grown in same condition with same lights and feeding?
Separated them in Curing because maybe they also will have different smoke and taste and effect?
any advice?Week 20
