My humidity is at 65%-70%rn at this stage

Unrelated to humidity but I tried my first grow with coco and was having what appeared to be a calcium deficiency. And according to royal queen seeds blog this is common in coco coir. So watch out for that. You may have to rethink your nutrient selection or possibly transplant in soil down the road. Disclaimer I am not a very experienced grower myself but that is the experience I had with coco.

I had the same fear as well but after talking to damn from the green sunshine company all of the amendments in my nutes have that covered I’ll post a pic tomorrow to show u how they are doing. Tomorrow they will be 14 days from seed and are killing so far. No deficiencies yet.

I’m excited to see how things go for you. I was using vermicrop organics for my top dressing. I switched to FFOF for my medium on my second run which I just cut down. I still used vermicrop for the soil and it worked for me. I also could’ve had the ph too high for the coco. I will definitely give coco another try down the road but for now I’ll stick to soil.

36" is to far away. Personally I would be putting them 24" or even closer, but that's my opinion. I use a 400w mh for seedlings at a distance for 18" and that light throws out much more lumens and heat.
I run my clones and seedling starts with a agromax raw 550 led at 20 inches,

The cool think about photos is that they have tome to heal.. you can add a couple of tablespoons of earth dust to top dress that plant. You have time. Dont give up on her..lol

Update only 2 out of the 4 girls made the cut I had two mutation that ended up not progressing and start yellowing for whatever reason prolly not stable but I just transplanted my cookies and green crack into 5 gallon pots these two girls are strong phenos forsure! My green crack on the right does look a lil wilted but prolly from the transplant shock will have another update in a few days when they start rooting out their pots a bit more☺
