I've learned that big time. stay away from Sunleaf Coir. It's red and you really have to rinse it thoroughly before it stops bleeding red. I prefer the extra fine stuff that is PH buffered and no long fibers. the Char it says to use at just a 1% mix, but mostly to add a little amount at roots base for nutrient uptake assisting...The big thing to keep an eye on is the pH!
It is considered ''hydro'' since there is no actual soil- so keep the pH lower!
Check your run-off, we found different brands of coco can f**k with the pH a bit!
Keep us posted on how you like it!
Yeah, this was all sent to me by mistake so Amazon said to keep it, their error.. so I figured, let's go back to my old method of growing... Coco. I ran coco for 5yrs. AK47 in a SCROG setup... then I started mixing it 50/50 with@Carty headed for a blissful grow I see. Coco and autos are a pretty nice combo.
Why the worm shit? Is that part of the whole shabang? Or something you wanted to add? That will be a nice slow N release. What ya using for nutrients?
My feelings for the past 20yrs.... I've had a few grows where I wondered if PH would of improved the bud production... but I realized many of my issues were related to Calmag and not PH....Chasing that ph dragon. What a shit show.
I found it difficult to trust that the dolomite in my promix would buffer ph but it does.
I use straight tap water. It measures 7.3ph. Whats the pH is after I mix nutrients? Hell if I know. I've learned to have faith in my medium to handle it all and it does.
So when I see a issue arise ph is not my first go to. I simply adjust the nutrients and move on because I know the odds of it being ph is pretty slim.
Now if I ever go back to bubbler bucket hydro I'll pick up that ph meter. Until then I don't need it.
I'd like everyone to know what a stand up friend MariJan is to me. communicated with my wife daily.... I'm on then mend but still have a difficult time typing.... took me 10 min to get this readable.... lol. shakey hands atm... weak.He is resting finally. His stomach finally calmed down.
