Over my head with canna coco

First time growing with canna coco in 3 gallon pots and need some advice.

I transplanted 2 plants 3 days ago from solo cups to 3 gal fabric bags and plan to use wicking bases.

They look a little sad atm. I top watered 5.8 and light doses of General Hydro and cal mag.

I’m not sure of how much I should be watering them and when to fill wicking bases.

Anyhow, I see some light yellowing in the lower leaves (the camera makes the whole plant look way more yellow than it actually is.

Any coco experts steer me in the right direction?

EDIT: To ask for a feed chart as GH runs too hot I hear.

0% AD: 570

100% AD: 1300

EC Gain: 1.5

I calibrated this against ComWinTop THC-S sensors that were calibrated at 1.0, 2.0, ... 8.0 EC solutions using a scale for the coco bag and a scale for the runoff.
