The real benefit of a larger container, IMO, is it’s a buffer for potential screw ups. Missed watering, pump failures, ect. Big plants in small pots will die quickly if neglected. Large pots on the other hand will hold moisture longer and can go longer times without feedings. Larger pots...

Thanks for the replies. First real issue I’ve had in years of running coco. They seem to be doing well now that the temps are under control. ✌

What’s up guys.. Soooo, I had some really nice looking clones transplanted into coco last week, AC went out, they cooked for a few days(around 100 degrees) dried out at one point, after rehydrating them and getting temps under control they are still alive, just a little beat up looking. Looking...

Temp, humidity, light, genetics, nutes... in that order.. IMO

+1 for the condensate pump. Or buy a float switch and make one for even cheaper with a more powerful pump.

Thanks for the response! Yeah, unfortunately our tap is around 450ppm here in coastal SoCal. Maybe we can try reducing runoff? We are currently doing 2 gal of Tupar coco, 8 plants per 4x4 average. Feeding 5-6 times per 12 hr light cycle.

They keep clamping down on our water use here in SOCAL. We have been using RO DTW in coco for years with best success, but as you all know RO DTW is very wasteful of water. Has anyone had comparable success with coco recirc? I’m trying to plan ahead as I hear some stronger water regs are headed...

I've started using a 50/50 coco and FF happy frog for all seedling and clones in solo cups then transplant into straight coco a few weeks later. Had much better results . just water with plain h20 as needed.

Yeah, the bricks are the way to go IMO..

I did a couple lavenders from soma seeds last summer. No probs at all. Coastal San Diego.

Re: Just Water till harvest setup ? Maxibloom.. K.I.S.S. formula. One teaspoon per gallon. Use during veg and flower. It's as easy as that. I've used several different nutes in the past and this one works as well as any, for me anyways.. JJ

Nice little setup...

Subbed.. Looking good!

I'm in the same boat Tarkus.. I've been looking at several LEDS as well. Have you looked at topled? I was just comparing the numbers and it looks like the p600 and reflector 192x3 are basically the same? Appears They are all made in China, some just pricier than others. Could there be that...

I have very limited experience with coco. I did one grow using nutes daily. (Lucas formula). Next grow I used nutes every other day. Just ph'ed water in between. Couldn't really tell a difference.
