as you said in the diary, it needs food because it is in coco where there is no nutes to support further growth. that's why older leaves are more yellow than new ones.dont feed every other watering, feed each watering to create a visible growth for the next 2 weeks.coco doesnt contain nutes,you should feed it to make it happy.unlike soil.

Leaves change during 5th week You can see during this week that the early leaves are falling down, and some leaves are showing some kind of burn. I thought it was due to overwatering or not so good soil draining. Any tip?

Possible deficiency/humidity/pH problem I've been struggling with same problem from beginning of grow - leaves having these dry yellow/white spots. The first week I used too high pH which later I replaced by rainwater - new leaves were healthy, but last night I left tent at 70% RH. Somehow it returned - still rainwater
