i've got this exact same problem in a soil grow. some threads covering the same problem suggest its overwatering, so i waited untill the soil had dried out (5 days in my case) and flushed the soil with 2 x the pot volume of clean water.

any crap in the soil has hopefully washed out, and i'm giving it longer between watering.

and hey presto! my babies DO look better:thumbsup:

i realise you're not useing soil, but i overcame it, so hopefully you can too.

that was 1 of 3 things I was thinking...I'll give it a shot...I don't suppose it will hurt anything right? Thanks for your input!

i have done same thing...with growing with LED'S it is easy to over water and i encountered similar issues of what you are speaking...cut the water back for a few days and closely monitor them until they need water..coco shuold dry out faster which is why i say to closely watch them and water half of what you were and go from there :thumbsup:

yeah this is my first time with coco and I had the opposite problem in the start...lol... ill give it a few days and see if that helps...I hope that is all! Thanks for your input!
