i need some help with coco

[Reverend]

Check out Wogs auto pots in her diary, they are similar to the ones you are intending to use, she is very impressed with them.

I think the only difference is that she uses perlite with a hint of vermiculite as the medium. I will also be switching over to them next grow.

hey tt

 

Go coco mate, i started mine in coco - had to cut them (wife issues). But while they were going it was great.

i used canna coco products, cannazym. never got to use to pk 13 - some one sent me:)

 

got a buddy converted from soil to coco - he swears by it. Get coco from sog - its in a white bag, pasturized, made in india - awesome stuff. You can treat it like hydro or soil, mix perlite.

converted from dwc to coco.

 

Will be startin again soon - wifes gone.

 

tried the my buddy system - careful on the plumbing. never been a fan of moving water especially my grow room being up above.

ok im new here to and i just started some little ones 5 i got some white widow from a seedbank in amsterdam but i have some coca coir that i mixed with my soil, but since hearing all this good stuff i got a couple questiojns to try that 50/50 mix of coca and perlite

1. how much nutes do i give it i cant seem to find any excact measurements like every other day or what and

2.how much do i dillute thes nutes with water and what can i use to lower the ph will dilomatic lime work cause i have that sorry if my spelling is wrong

[jaikai]

Basic rule of thumb: feed nute every watering from 1week old, plain water every say 3rd/4th watering.

 

Feed at around 1/3strength for 1st week or so and build up from there, if they aint burning, they aint worried...

 

It`s not an exact science with basic growing techniques, but you do gotta get the feel for it I spose...

I'm currently growing in a mix of coco and perlite at about 50/50.

I use Canna COCO specific nutes at half strength and some superthrive and i water them on mondays and fridays.

 

The growth is amazing!

my first grow I started in september and the their doing great I swear by coco and i just started to bud right now im just giving it Pure Blend Bloom and cal mag and molasses was wondering if I should buy some other type of nutes to give them like big bud any opinions

[thedarkestone]

Coco is great stuff. I recommend using Canna products until you get a good hand on things. Canna coco is really good compared to other brands that I have tried and you don't have to flush the crap out of it before hand. So, I recommend getting the following Canna products:

• Coco A + B
  
• Rhizotonic
  
• Cannazym
  
• Pk13-14
  

When watering, make sure you get 15-20% runoff each time. This will help make sure you don't get a concentrated salt and mineral build up. Also adjust the PH when watering, around 5-5.8 is good. Be patient, watch and listen to the plants and you should get the hang of coco in no time.
