@@ScottyReal420 Have you thought about ever selling a 3 gallon bucket of soil and Grow Dots all mixed and find a good seed provider like Fast Buds 420 or a friend and sell as a kit with directions to grow it .

I use canna coco really good! Might be getting a confused with the salts here I use athena and growlink to control my crop steering however I find I can only use half the units it's asking for cause my ec in the pot goes mad like 7ec this might be a shot size issue. But now I've seen this is this a salt lock issue?and or what would u suggest as a solution

I love Coco for fabric pots because of peats hydrophobic properties, but I love peat in my EarthBox's.

Just don't forget to add Silica once you takeaway the soil. I didn't know about Silica because my stems were thick in Soil, but once I went to all Coco my stems were thin like pencils. Now I add Silica every week and do 50/50 Soil Coco mix. Thick stems are back. Thanks Scotty and gang

Adding silica every week is excessive. A) it’s not an essential nutrient, B) it’s immobile and does not decay. A little silica every few weeks in veg only is all that is needed

No you only want to run them for the period of time recommend by the manufacturer. check your instruction manual.

Just flipped to flower on my first Coco grow (using Coco Loco) and liking the results but I don’t quite understand why my runoff EC is significantly less (like 40% lower) than the nutrient EC. Was expecting drainage to be higher EC rather than lower. I assumed it was the plants (GG and Blue Dream) sucking up the nutrients and jacking up the input EC helped but not a lot. After this video now wondering whether it’s a buffering problem. The Blue Dream looks great but the GG while growing very well always seems just a tad on the yellow side. I fertigate every 4 hours aiming for 15% runoff during veg.

I'm on board with "coir" sounding like "foyer".

I luv these shorts. Can u do one on coco dryback best practices? I hear 90% saturated at all times and i heard otherwise. With and without perlite? I would really apprec it. So many conflicting things i see online. I use high qual from scietetics. Its the only aged coco on the market and its ground so fine. Try scietetics. Talk to jerin. Def diff than any coco i seen. The texture alone is so diff

I couldn't advise anyone not to use coco. But I can show em pounds per harvest easily. All without coco.

What about Mother Earth Coco Pete? Is that a reliable product?

was about to try grow dots nd recharge, but I thought I heard a coupon code on one of your last videos.

On the coco vs peat argument, I have to wonder if the sustainability difference is in the processing. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like coco in general uses a lot more water, including it is usually triple washed and often the consumer washes it at least once as well. I think both are fairly equal in choices and sustainability for different reasons.

with casting you can let the ph range go from 5.8-6.2 and will be fine.
