okay some i have yellowing/dying on my biggest girl bottom up in early 12-12

i been watering 8 cups (half gallon) evryday and just starting to do 12 now im thinking it from under watering iv been fighting that from the start pretty much, scared to over water, but almost sure its from under watering. iv been uping the dose ever week or so from the start. im in 5 gal half coco half living soil top amended. with a short bush with around 40-50 top and the pot is dry at the end of the day. i water every morning and she is pretty dry the next morning usually. not completely but she is pretty light. wondering if i should add a tad bit a synthetics for a quick fix?? i did start to bottom water a couple weeks ago to fight nats , and have starting doing half bottom half top water.
fully organic so far with bugs and all. but dying from bottom up is getting faster. all other girls are not doing this but they are also not quit as big. to much variables for me. she also has been slower on growth just flipped to 12-12 4 days ago. there at almost 7 weeks from sprout. i have some maxigrow/ bloom here sitting around. the top of the plant looks pretty nice though dark green, and just starting to get the light green from the flip to 12-12 im kinda new but for the most part know what im doing. and have grew some amazing bushes in 7 weeks. from pop.

sorry i dont have pictures just imagine a beautiful bush with yellow leaves at the bottom going up you cant even see them unless your looking really
and all the tops are remining pretty small im in half coco half living soil

I’m imagining and I imagine you need to feed including nitrogen. But that’s just by guess and by golly. Could also be magnesium deficiency. Just another guess.

This is what happens when you try to combine living soil with a coco grow.. Bad things

I'm imagining you need more light, less nutes, and a camera.

Mr Canuck strikes again

this grow has been amazing and really easy with amazing growth. just this 1 girl giving me issues cause she grew so fast and large. the others are, amazing just not 50 tops more like 35 ish. cause i didnt train them the same. i highly recommend living oil with coco!! she probly just needs more water for real. i have increased and she is doing fine now. and gave her some extra.

my ppfd is around 600 and anytime i try to turn it up they start taco ing and i bring lights back down. im in a tight spot, so my area is very bright with two fs 4000 im in living soil and not giving any nutes yet. she is completely green and lush. just eating herself from bottom up probly cause she was drying out to often, she did this when she was around 2 weeks too in a 1 gal. im giving half gallon a day but will bump a little. seems they have all slowed down drinking in the first week of 12-12. so ill play it by ear.

this is probly the most likely culprit, she is in living soil with no amendment other than some flower girl from dr. earth. top amended. im thinking of hitting the living soil with a low ppm synthetic dose. to see how they like it. iv heard living soil love the salt every in low doses
