Coco medium are not often pre-enriched in nutrients and when it's the case they are specifying it on the bag for a better marketing so yes your leaves are pale because they can't find anything serious to eat , in coco you need to feed straight from the start and with every feeding , and as coco medium is cal/mag free you'll have to bring some with every watering ; btw 1.5 L is too much , just water around the roots zone and check the soil by putting a finger inside to see if it's wet even if the surface is dry.

Hi @edsmokesalot You are drowning the roots with 1.5L of water in each irrigation, at this point 200 ml is more than enough, the roots need oxygen to grow and feed. let the soil dry well between each watering, control it by the weight of the pot, the substrate when it is dry becomes very light and when it is very wet it becomes very heavy. good luck mate 🙏👍

new growth tends to be pale until they can get settled and darken up to photosynthesise. They still dont really need a feed but make sure the water is at approx ph 5.8. dont worry all looks ok

When they are young you don’t need to water with 1.5 liters you just need to spray but now you can start water them but not too much because that will cause stress to the plant, in this stage the root is still fragile is adapting to land. Hope it helps Good grow ✌️🏼
