What’s up with these coco plants?

So my buddy had these at his place and just moved them to mine. Honestly from what I remember the tops always looked a little off, but they seem to be curling some and discolored. Any tips? I’ve never done coco before.

It’s about 72F and 55%RH. He was feeding them this stuff called Lotus but I think he’s out of the grow one, so need to buy new stuff. Suggestions?

Have u checked any runoff? Looks like the roots aren't happy. First thing I'd do is give it a little flush and c if anything jumps out ph of ppm wise

No I just got the plants, but I’ll check it. He is out of the grow nutrients he was using so I need more, any suggestions? I’ve already used straight water twice (no run off) and I worry about doing it a third time?

water with run off , use a mild food every watering. Only thing i can think of is to warm it up to 80 ish. Looks like they were under very bright leds ?

Ya when using LED I thought it was supposed to be warmer, yea these LEDs are pretty bright https://www.ledgrowlightsdepot.com/products/crecer-lighting-panthrx

Any suggestions for nutes to buy? Just want to keep it simple, he used something called Lotus but ran out.
that lotus is a very balanced diet so its good shit but expensive as hell. I love the ratios on that food.
megacrop a and b is good. maxi series is good , those are kinda cheap. The fox farm trio is kinda cheap and is ok. Coco food is probably what ya want but it dont really matter unless you are trying to do "organic coco" ....that would be tough.

Coco contains high amount of K and and a LOT of other elements but almost zero N. Either way its still best to use a very balenced food every watering ish. Jacks , peters , lots of cheap ways.
Pure chemicals in powder form will be by far the cheapest but you have to create your own balanced diet.

Can't beat Maxibloom for ease of use. I'd grab a bag and start them on 500 ppm and go up to 700 ppm max if they respond well, LOTS of runoff for now. Make sure there isn't any drainage issue with those plants, like, the roots sitting in runoff. Also, how cold does it get in there?

Was experiencing the same thing but with only one of the strains. Moving the lights back helped. My vote is for light bleaching.

Honestly took a small chunk of a benzo and smoked and forget why I have two threads, I had a reason but can’t recall. I feel you
