Growing using living soil method in coco coir.

[Masterdank420]

Hey, I was just wondering if anybody has experience with living soil using coco coir as a medium. Have you experienced any issues? Any advice would be appreciated.

I have two, two week old gg#4s . 50% FFOF, 40% coco, 10% perlite. So far so good

You may want to research coco as a medium first. I'd be concerned with all those wonderful microbes and such breaking down the coco which will open more and more cation sites causing issues after a while.

Living soil or coco. Pick one and run with it.

Peat moss would have been a better choice.

What are the advantages of growing in peat moss?

I’m not planning on recycling my soil, I don’t think it would break down fast enough to cause issues during the lifetime of a marijuana plant. Have you ran into any issues with this in the past?
