I have 70% coco and 30% perlite from ecothrive
And its not the coco brick form this is the ready to use from the bag.
I did give my self a trial run in terms of rinsing before use.
My tap water is around 40/50ppm from the tap after letting it sit for a few hours with a PH off around 7.2. I add calmag to around 150PPM (no other nutes) and adjust my PH to around 5.7/5.9.
I then rinsed my coco until the water run off becomes somewhat clean, which gave me a PH off 7.8. I'm having no problems with reducing the PPM yet the PH doesn't seems to go down,
I'm keep attempting at growing yet after the seedling stage I just seem to fail. Also I'm really careful with watering.
So it's making me believe it's the coco itself?
Here's the medium I am using.
Please do not guide me in EC that stuff confuses me haha
