So much good info from that newty/derby convo that it makes me want to grow in coco! Alas, I can't.

Hey Shed, I was about to try some coco, is there something I should know? :confused:

Oh no, not at all! Just that I can't commit to the frequency of watering that coco needs, and since my plants are often moved from outside to inside on a regular basis I can't set up an auto watering system like Derby built.

Feel free to coco!

Thank you sir. I really appreciate you explaining that since I'm a little unsure of what to expect.

Make sure you give s decent dose of cal mag and 1/4 nutes once flushed or will run into cal mag problems later ?

Hey newty

Lowded118 · Aug 31, 2018

Thank you! Hey SF, good to have you around again! I enjoy summer however, I'm pleased with all the indoor returners peeping for fall! the coco needs a flush.
Gottcha, hindsite, I precharged with straight calmagic 150ppm base 30. I guess it's not enough. After seeing this happen, after I flush my promixhp I think I will also precharge as I'm seeing some similarities, just not as intense....which makes total sense.
To me it seems the Sensitivity factor of nutz goes hydro-coco-promix.
Lol no reasearch just living it.
Ok low pH, I'm using AN ph perfect. My watering has been 5.8-6.2. that being said when I add more micro, I get down to 5.2 -5.6 ph. Weird

Thanks Newty! Yes the I want to do that just incase some enzyme cleaner is sitting robbing my f Nutz!!!! But we love enzymes so I can't be mad at them :rofl:

Drebybud! Hey hows it going! So glad to hear about your move sometimes change helps us be happy!
Definately agree with the flush amount. After last grow, I'm so afraid to f with flushed. Promixhp fulshes very quick and very well. It don't hold on to nutnbitz. I believe coco is the same.

I’d agree with SF, flush the affected plants with a low dose of balanced nutrients 1-1-1, flush out the salts and reset. This is what’s great about coco. Test the ppm coming out and if it’s really high, it’s likely lockout. If it’s not high, it’s probably PH probs, not allowing the uptake of the nutrients they need.

Derbybud said:
Just make sure that your flush is right at a pH of 5.8-6.2. Make sure you get a good run off of 30% or better. Like newty said 1-1-1 for the flush and the next day run 1/4-1/2 strength of nutes and build from there. Should look way different in 3 days.

Joe! Sup Mang! Yea with juggling overwatering, underwatering nutz new strains bugs and new coco medium....I have many boxes to tic lol.

. Things are really really looking good to me PW thanks. It's nice to sample a new medium in one plant opposed to 20!

Pennywise · Aug 31, 2018

Yes it is but coco is always my fallback, it's never failed me.

Lowded118 · Aug 31, 2018

I'm so happy to learn coco. Thank you and The KingJoeGrowShow for guiding me here!
If I can auto water next is scrog!
I love me a carpet.

Pennywise · Aug 31, 2018

Auto watering is simple really, just a pump and a timer.

Lowded118 · Aug 31, 2018

I'm just zoning into how to water. I like the 500-1000ml shots 2 daily or every second, opposed to drench and droop method taking 4-6 days between feeds. I laughed about how everyone said watering was such a problem now I get what they were talking about....

Pennywise · Aug 31, 2018

Coco I water twice a day in flower, once a day in veg.

Lowded118 · Aug 31, 2018

Ahhhhh thank you ok so we're in veg. I can back the off watering and just carry on like we're doing.

Worrying is a waste of life. :yahoo:

this watering really is testing me lol. Wtf
Practice I guess! So hard in the brain to see you kill something slowly with your bare hands lol. I need an underground lair like Derby bit mine world be this torture dungeon
You relieved a pile of questions in this melon. :welldone:

Pennywise · Aug 31, 2018

Just don't make it harder than it is.

InTheShed · Aug 31, 2018

And one of these days Derby will do his full-on auto watering tutorial. Not sure why he hasn't done it yet since he's not growing until October

I'm going to do my tutorial the weekend of September 8-9 as my wife will be out of town with the horses and she won't know what I'm doing. Sorry for the delay guys I do keep trying to work it in. Just crazy busy.

My timer is a Hydrofarm TM01715D and can be found on the zon for under $15. It has 8 programs and like I said will go down to seconds so if you have a high volume pump you can dial it in. I myself run a lower volume so it is a nice slow even long watering.

Lowded118 · Aug 31, 2018

Cleaned the bongs so sweet. Dopeboo had a link. The salt and iso is so sweet! The salt would just grind anything off. Without Salt I couldn't get the cool parts that make it a bubbler! So pleased! Brand new again! The salt does leave a bit of residue so flush flush flush.
Thank you Dopeboo!!
