im not exactly sure how high end nutrients work differently then say low end nutes but whatever. In general coco is like soil in terms of watering after that it's way different then soil. There are many ways to water coco but I would suggest drip lines of some sort. Up to you if you want to recirculate the water or drip to waste. I recirculate without problems. I would suggest you poor fine childrens play sand over the top inch or so of your coco and water through that to the coco about every 3 days. I use 5 gallon bucket res with a simple pump connected to series of water lines laying across the tops of the pots. Easy peasy. I keep my ppm's at around 2k for flowering but I ease my way up to that over a couple weeks from a ppm of 800 during veg. GH maxi series dry powder contains ph buffers and cal/mag and runs cheap cheap. Dont be fooled I tells ya! Oh and one more thing...I would not suggest you plan on reusing coco. If your root mass turns out anything like mine, I dont see how you would want to bother. GH coco is like 10 bucks for a compressed brick the size of my chest. That's about 10 gallons of coco. Play sand runs about 5 bucks for 10 pounds.
Prodaytrader Reviewed by Prodaytrader on . growing in coco. How often to feed? Hi i've just started my first grow using coco. and you can see from my other thread i'm a little unsure of a few things. How often should i feed my plants nutes? my plants are 3 weeks old from seed and i've been feeding everyday with half strength nute..which i think has caused the problems i'm having (overwatered and overferted :( ) Any advice you have to offer will be brilliant...ta very much in advance.
