That's the site everyone says to go to for everything you need and more when it comes to growing. I can tell there is a lot of experience over there by reading the posts. They have a nice coco forum over there.

Right on, I'll give it a look later. THX

If light could shine through trees there would be no shade. We're not talking bullet penetration,

you guys think I am starting with the nutes too soon?? I saw one of my plants with some yellow around the edges...

I've heard good things about the classic coir from Sunleaves. I don't think a lot of people like the chunky piece coir though.

It didn't really show too well in the pics. I suggest you fertilize as much as you can when you get that MH up.

Cool I pick up bags from the hydro store, talked the owner into a permenant 25% discount.

Okay, so I got all my plants transplanted into the Coco last night and they seem fine so far. Breaking up the block was a real pain in the balls, I'm hoping they will have the bag kind at the hydro store. The block was just enough for the nine 2gallon bags so the plant that never opened it's leaves won't have a place to go if it does survive. It actually looks better like there is new green growth ready to burst out of that yellowish film. The following is my first attempt to upload a pic so bare with me. If it works I'll put up some more.

Okay, let's try again

Nice sprouts. Looks like you bought some good stuff.What brand of nutes do you have?

yeah on my canna coco nutes it says to keep it between 5.2 and 6.2, i used to give my plants way to much nutes freaked out and gave them mg making them worse. Then i bought a ph and ec pen and figured out i was just messing the nutes, now i don't bother measuring the ph, just learnt not be silly with nutes
