hey man looks like heat stress leading to some other problems, keep the root zone cool by insulating it with some white cloth and watering with colder water. get as many fans as possibly pointing to the root zone, but the best thing to do is to get an "evaporative cooler", it's pretty cheap and it will work for your conditions hopefully reducing the temps to 25°C . Everything else looks fine but if you dont fix this soon your buds will be airy! hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi there mate Who says you can't overwater coco??? one of the most common newbie errors is overwatering and coco is completely capable of being over saturated. A general rule of thumb is only water every second to third day and if you push your finger into the pot up to the top knuckle and it comes out dry Your plants will need a drink the next day. Hope this helps 😀

I'd get in there and give em a nice defoliation to reduce transpiration. Watch the next time you water and see if any leaves perk up. If not try spacing out the waterings. I had some plants that had the droop and i noticed the more i left them alone (like 3 days at a time) the happier they got. Vs some clones i had that had the droop as soon as they got watered the leaves lifted. Good luck with the grow.✌️

Yeah, too much water. You have a tight space and a big pot so they're will be lots of moisture meaning less frequently watering

I agree-too much water. I also grow in coco and it is possible to give them too much. Pinch the very top of the soil and if it is dry (only a tiny shallow pinch) then it’s time to water. That technique has worked a treat for me.

Hi @TheCode! Well it's really hard to over-water with a fresh and airy coco, since this medium will immediately get rid of its excess of water, unless 100% of your waterings are very heavy you shouldn't see signs of overwatering. Is there a chance you re-used the coco from a previous run? In my opinion your plants do suffer from a not-acidic-enough pH (in coco 5.8 is your sweetspot), probably a bad airflow, and not enough Nitrogen during the vegetative stage (plants are slightly yellow). In this situation I would: 1/ help the container to dry faster to make sure over-watering is not the source of your problems, a tiny fan blowing a continuous breeze onto the container's surface should suffice. 2/ help the plants to handle the stretch by giving it a bit more of Nitrogen, for the very last time. 3/ lower the pH to 5.5-5.8 for the entire blooming cycle and 4/ make sure they have a cool breeze all day long and double check the airflow all around the plants. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing!

Hi! Yep your's coco is too wet. water her little less and and more often. It's better than a lot and seldom. Also make sure your PH is in check that's essential in coco growing as is some enzyme product like BioBizz Acti Vera. Hope this helps out! Happy growing!
