Hello everyone.
Haven't posted in awhile but I've been around . Been growing for years but wanting to switch things up. Im starting a new grow using coco coir/perlite and feeding using HnG coco base a+b. Just bought my first botainicare 5kg cocogro brick expanded it with ro water ph'd to 5.8,checked run off which was 20 ppm(pumped about it too!) measured on a blue lab combo. My question is my coco recipe which goes as follows.
1. 5kg cocogro brick (about 2.5 c.f.)
2.about 1 cf of #3 chunky perlite
3.3/4 c.f of ewc
4. 4 cups of azomite
5. 4 cups of alfalfa meal
6. 1 lb of mycos
7. 8 oz of azos
I am going to let this mix sit for a couple weeks and hit it with a aerated tea once or twice before I use it. The tea consist of
1.great white
2. Fossil fuel
3.More mycos and azos and ewc
Im hoping this will set off the micro herd nicely.im not using many amendments because I want to start feeding them rite away as I will be putting established plants In this mix and going to flower shortly after. Does anyone have any input/advice?
Also I was thinking about adding some lime to the mix but all I have rite now is epsoma Prilled garden lime which I have heard is ok to use you just have to use more of it. Does anyone know if this is correct and if so would the amount be about 1 tablespoon per gallon?Im new to coco so any is appreciated. Thx again and its good to be back. Lots of new knowledgeable people to meet.
