COCO COIR Please help with drooping plant *Pics*

Hello i am in need of some help with my plants. I picked up two clones from a weed shop and one seems to be doing okay since the transplant and the other is drooping. I have my water PhD to around 6.5. The one on the bottom looks really good but the one on the top isn’t. I have attached pictures of both plants. Is the drooping one already dead or does it have a chance still? If someone could maybe help me in pushing these plants in the right direction that would be great!

I am using Coco Coir with Canna A + B nutes. What light are you using and how far is it away from the plants. Looks like your light is not strong enough.
Set Up:
Grow tent 32” x 32” x 63”H
MARS Hydro 400w LED dual spectrum (veg only spectrum being used) 42” from plants
Temp 20c -27c
Humidity 35% - 60%, average 40% - 50%
Seeds:
Humbolt Seed Organisation - Amherst Sour Diesel
All seeds germinated and planted at same time
All 3 plants popped through surface on 23/03/2020. 2 weeks total grow roughly
All 3 pots Coco Coir with 2/1 mix with perlite.
Light feeding schedule with Canna A + B 12.5m nutrients per 10l water
PH in 6.1 PH out 6.0

Overwatered and/or not enough medium for the plant of that size.
Maybe it has something to do specifically with clones but I don't have experience with clones.
 
Coco grower as well. Could be overwatered or underwatered. It all depends if ya drenched it or not. Usually pretty hard to overwater coco imo when I catch one of my plants drooping it’s usually cause she is thirsty. Go by pot weight perhaps. Pick up that perky girl then compare to the other. If you drenched it it could be overwatered wait 24hrs and see if it makes a difference. If pot feels light perhaps add more water wait a few hours and check on her. Lighting is important as well. Depending on your light might wanna bring it about 18 inches from the girls. Experiment and save that girls life, certainly not dead but not a happy plant. With coco I water every morning with the same amount of water. They like a routine schedule watering. Happy growing.

I made a few changed in the tent, also see my post with the nutrients and my PH levels.

Another question I have is what does yellowing leaves mean? Today I woke up and notice a leave on one of them turning yellow, when I looked it up I was not able to find a clear answer. Is there a way I can send you some pictures of all of them and you give me feedback? I have four total.
 
Try and bump up the mls on the cal magi and see if that makes a difference for them coco has no calcium whatsoever so they need an extra boost. I have never used general hydroponics. But are you supposed to be using the flora bloom already so early in veg ?? Send the pics friend I can take a look for ya

How much water

Tbh i haven’t figured out exact measurements just yet. I’m such a pussy when it comes to making decisions. I keep second guessing myself. And I’m also just not sure how wet the coco should be. So I’m pretty much just trying to do the best i can but also second guessing everything.
 
Ok let’s slow down on the water. Let them dry out, no water for 24hrs for sure. The roots should often be searching for water to build a strong root base so no more drowning them. After the coco gets dry try maybe let’s say 1/2-1 cup of ph balanced nutrient loaded water every morning and no more after that. The coco should almost be dry and your plant will thrive trust me. Then if ya wanna you can make a better schedule I like to feed with nutrients two days in a row then one day ph balanced water and one day ph balanced water with cal magi repeat. I’m only speaking from experience with the strain I’m currently growing and she is very forgiving ,Black Sugar. I’ll post some photos of what my topsoil looks like.
 
Not sure why it uploaded them all sideways but my topsoil is pretty much bone dry and the plants are thriving beautifully 7th week flower.

Do you think i should redo my water nutrients and not include bloom in it until later? Also is 1 cup per plant enough water for the whole day? I was told by someone else that since coco dries so fast i should water more than once a day. The strains i am currently attempting is GG#4, Sundae Driver, Strawberry fields and Zookies.

Also do you use any other platforms? Maybe Instagram so i could send pictures easier through there and also see your replies faster. If you only feel comfortable with this i understand!

Thank You
