I’m seeing a potassium deficiency at least or the start of light bleaching. Your EC is in a proper range for age so wondering about the lights.

I disagree with potassium deficiency. I use Advanced Hydrophonics of Holland myself on Coco. It has more than enough Potassium, I always find it hast too little Nitrogen in its mixture. I usually start with nothing, then half of dosage only Bloom and Micro adding some more Mono Nitrogen. The suggested N-P-K Ratio is 3-1-1 in Growth. AH delivers 3-3-6 if standard mixture is used. This gives you yellow leaves very early.

In addition if you have hard (Cacium rich) water (EC>0.4) you should add osmosis water to lower plain EC. AH Micro has a lot (7%) of Calcium in it. Together with water initial calcium this may lead to lockout.

Sorry I mistyped, at the beginning I use only Grow and Micro, not Bloom and Micro.
