Deficiency or toxicity

Honestly your plants look good I would introduce something with some more k in it as that’s what your going to be lacking in and could cause the yellowing on the tips like that as you proceed. Other than that man looks good keep the nitrogen going all the way through and don’t wash out your soil and you’ll be good.
So that can coas Yellow tips? I was thinking they were burnt lol

Ok, so to hit you with the same logic...with your soil, what's to stop problems occurring for the very same reason you let coco drain, if you never do the same with your soil?
Soil and coco as a growing medium have completely different properties and attributes soil can hold microbes and the density of it can hold more or allow water to spread out. relating coco and soil grows to each other is like comparing night and day they are completely different and require different techniques to grow well in.

They don't.
They both have a cation exchange cycle
They both hold water and O2
They both hold nutrient
They both drain

and that's nonsense. no offence.
Not at all I think you’ll find me and many others in agreement on the not watering to runoff in organic soils but hey what do I know. All you are doing is wasting the amendments and microbes you have introduced to it and washing away valuable food you can do what you like and call it what you like.

Go and look at some hort. info
Royal School of Horticulture for all I care, it will tell you otherwise.

So can my pubes but people aren’t comparing them to each other yes they both hold nutes and both can drain and both can do all kinds of stuff but are still completely different I’m not going to argue with you it seems like you do that enough with yourself you are more than welcome to view my grows and journals and see what my results are from no runoff as well copious amounts of other grows on here and you are more than welcome to compare them with whatever you have going on.

And people amend potting mixes and soils with coco all the time, so what's your point?
Common sense coco is different to soil, but the properties it contains, required to grow a plant are the same.

No just recently, i top dressed right as i flipped then gave a tea not long after then boom and thats why i thought toxicity, the tea wasn't strong though
Let dry out a bit. I really do think the bottom of your pots a bit soggy.
Might be a bit of rot. Tea will only make that kind of thing worse if the roots aren't breathing.

"Firstly this guide only applies to our living soil product. Don't try to apply this to other brands of living soil as it may cause issues for you "

I use coco in my soil but it’s still not the same as the soil it’s in it helps with water retention and adds support for the soil why are we arguing this Jesus do what you like buddy if you want to grow in living soil and wash your shit away then by all means do so if you want to grow in living soil the right way and not wash all your stuff out then do that idc it’s your grow not mine. If you think soil and coco are the same good for you there are people on here arguing about a flat earth so it’s not surprising to hear what your spitting out.
