Coco can be a little tricky if you do not understand its cation exchange properties. It has an affinity for Mg and more so for Ca. Ca & Mg can be managed more easily with ph and light supplementation. Coco is not for everyone but for those that understand the CEC coco is pretty much the ideal medium. Thorough rinsing and pre-charging coco before using it are essential. It is probably the most eco friendly medium as well.
Doc, you seem to have a better sense for how to grow in soil - glad to see you won't be using coco again.
I might try it again someday. In the meantime, i'm happy with soil and hempy.
I tell you what....the grow room smell amazing! Much more smell than with perlite hempy's.
