Handwatering Coco Question.....
Hey guys thanks for the links....
Yeah I browsed through them before as well. I should take a deeper look though.
Its not the BRICK format of COCO its the BAgged kind which from my understanding does not have to be rinsed, Because its not compressed.
From my understanding is that they use salt water to compress the Coco Coir which makes it have built up salts. But im not 100% on that stuff...
Well I have two seedlings in Coco right now. I am going to let them go two weeks. If all gorws fine just like in my ProMix I will transplant them to their perminant home in a bigg bunch of Coco. 2 gallons or so.
As for the lime (I was kinda iffy about it as well) I didn't really see why I needed it. I think it wouyld almost help to keep my PH too HIGH... But THis garden shop has never gioven me wrong info before. and everything I buy form them is top notch... So Im gonna take his advice this time around.
I think it just cuz he knows im not using it in a hydro format.
So my Ph in Coco should be around 6.0 to 6.5 for handwatering then?
Agree or dissagree?
I hate trying somthign new... I tried coco before and didn't have good results but I didn't know what I was doing I didn't understadn PH or anything. My plants dies cuz they needed food that I keept not feeding them. cuz I thought it was hurting them in my Noobish days....
Now I have some grows under my belt that work out well,,, But I want to move to the next step...
I just dont wanna have it not work out and switch back to ProMix... and waste a good couple weeks,,,,
ohhhman,,,,,, im scared
