New grower can someone tell me if I’m over watering or what?

I’m using canna coco pro plus with mars hydro st 1000, I’ve been watering every with canna a+b 7ml in 5 litres. This photo was taken 1hr after light came on.
That looks like straight up coco with no perlite in the mix, it stays mushy for a while.
More perlite, leads to more draining, more feeding, more root growth.

Never used coco before but what can help you dry the plant out is making sure that you have the right temps so the plant does what its suppose to do. I'm sure that you have heard here that LED require a warmer climate than when using HPS/MH or CMH Might help others if you share what kind the environment you are growing in. I know from growing in soil it makes all the difference in the world. Not saying my plant is perfect but I can tell by her reaction when I get it closer to right than wrong.. Good luck!

I’ve already got clay pebbles in.. won’t that help?
Sure, anything helps. Probably not as much as perlite at the same ratio but you forgot to include the ratio.
I water like a motherfucker, so I need lots of perlite, like 40-50%

Good point, may be cold and taking for friggin ever to dry out, VPD may be more your issue.
Lights' temps' humidity, medium ratios would help.
