First Ever Grow Any Advice Please

[420Hazmat]

Hey there; it’s my first ever grow & any advice would be helpful. My setup is a VIVOSUN VGrow box with Mexican Rush Auto from RQS in a 3gal fabric pot with Foxfarm BushDoctor CoCo-LoCo using Humboldts Secret Nutrients(CalMag → Base A → Base B → Plant Enzymes → Tree Trunk → Flower Stacker → Sticky & Sweet) . I’m running a VIVOSUN dehumidifier & damprid, aerowave d4 fan, exhale CO2 bag. I had been running a drip system that was doing 40mL per minute but I couldn’t figure a right duration & was overwatering so I switched to hand watering every 48hrs with approx.950-1150ml each watering. | trimmed all the fan leaves & anything that was below that wasn’t getting much light. I was worried that I had made the plant go into shock or something because it was day 37 of flowering & the bud sites weren’t  growing bigger/bulking. It’s currently in Day 51 of flowering the plant definitely looks better than what it did after the trim but I’m worried since it’s so late in flowering the bud sites & plant is screwed . I will attach pictures with texts

Current Water Ph: 5.9-6.2

Current Water PPM: 957ppm

Current Water EC : 1900-2000ec

Temp Range: 68-82*F

Humidity: 40-60%

Co2: 500-1400ppm

First off, congrats on your first ever grow. Most of what you mention are good conditions like: water ph range, water ppm, temp range, humidity range, co2 range – all of those are in acceptable ranges. You mention 1900-2000ec which I’m assuming is actually PPM? Unless you mean 1.9-2.0 EC ?

Looking at the plant, I see some purple stems and 3-finger leaves which makes me believe the plant either went through a deficiency or a lockout at some point. The plant size and buds do appear to be small this late into flower. Was the plant stunted in Veg or flower? Also, do you every check the PPM of the coco runoff?
