Thanks, dude. Been growing for years and never really look at this site. I take careful notes. Also post harvest edibles and hash. Been a user for 50 years and this is the new revolution. Let me know what you think.

Do you use calmag in your plain water first, before adding coco A&B ?
I find coco hydroponic and hydroponic.
I never feed anything but full strength nutrients at 5.8.
Never let it go a day without feeding.
It causes he4 to eat leftovers from the pot.
And needs rewetted when dry before it absorbs again.

We all find what works for us, I find this beneficial.
