if done right your going to love it. Canna is expensive, but a good way to start in coco and pretty much fool proof if you follow their watering chart. I use their nutrients on the high end of their scale and you need to use nutrients every time you water. (expect to be watering about every 2-3 days especially towards the end) Don't skimp!!! Think about watering your coco rather than watering your plants that is why it is important to not miss giving nutes as well as just watering with water washes out your beneficial bacteria. I highly recommend using great white in the beginning as well. Also take a look at "smart pots" or fabric pots. weather in soil or coco these pots are awesome. They will do many things that will benefit your plants. you should definatly see the production that you saw in hydro if you understand how coco works and treat it the way it wants to be treated I hope this helps a little

oh yeah and with the canna coco line you can pretty much throw away your ph pen and ec meter... canna self adjusts the ph level and since you water so much, it pretty much resets ec levels and washes out salts every 2-3 days. When I water I top feed by hand like soil and I try to shoot for about a %10 run off that I discard
