Try coco gro for your grow medium next time

Without knowing what's in it exactly I would steer clear of using it for hydro. You could try a little of it in soil, just be ready to flush at signs of burn.

I started out with Stinkbud's rail system and ended up with a modified strongbox to address hazards of pump failure and spacing. There's still something to be said for growing it au natural though.

It's hard to talk application without knowing the concentration. Was there a label on the bag you received?

I'd be hesitant to say for sure with those pics but I'm pretty certain you have a female there also.

No argument soil is more forgiving then hydro, but going organic in hydro is not that hard. There are many ways to introduce beneficial bacteria and fungi into a hydro system. I'm running Mayan Microzyme for beneficials, Pure Blend Pro for nutes and Liquid Karma and have had a completely...

I would second Floralicious Plus as an alternative to LK if that's not available. The main ingredients would be the sea kelp extract, yucca extract (wetting agent) and humic acids. I personally like LK because of those ingredients plus carbs that help my beneficials, LK makes other additives...

I got dramatic rebound and growth rate adding LK to my nute regimen. OP didn't post his nute schedule but the most likely scenario was the humic acid in the LK making unavailable nutes in his soup available again causing burn. I can see this happening with synthetics if not careful, while...

Day 45 (55) Kitty is up to 10" now, Bec-Bec at 7". I needed a home for clones as 12/12 day is quickly approaching. I turned my dresser/tv stand into a foster home for clones using a 15W 6500K CFL and my fogger res with 20ml/gal Liquid Karma, 5ml Mayan Microzyme and 3.5gal H2O. I stuck a...

Day 44 (54) Just showcasing Bob today. This was formally #2 and the male I'm keeping around for crosses. This guy had good vigor early on and took quite well to a little LST and a FIM. A big draw to C99 besides a buzzsaw cutting high (can't wait to confirm) was that it's known for not going...

Day 43 (53) A week has past since LK was added, still stable ppms and ph. The boys are getting out of hand even across the tub from the girls I'll have to worry about tangling roots soon.

1st looks fem.

Yep, I held off on naming until I could sex em. #2 is named Bob as I'm tryin to clone him. #5 will remain nameless.

Day 41 (51) : Turning back time a bit, going with the younger Kitty's age for my journal. Even though Bec-Bec is 10 days older then Kitty, I prefer to consider the true day 1-10 as a false start. :) Final pics of #1, culled him today due to #5's crazy root growth. Going to cull #5 soon and #1...

Female indeed. If you can see the pistils like in the pic above you're good. (Hermies notwithstanding)

Day 50(40) : Looks like sexing is done, no stamens showing up to the party on #5 so that puts the tentative scorecard at 2 girls 3 boys. If they are what they are once flowering starts #1 and #5 are getting culled and #2 now named Bob will have a clone or two taken for later use. #3 and #4...

Still a bit small to capture with my camera but I can see pistils on the preflowers at nodes 6 and 7 on plants #3 and #4. The preflowers on #1 and #2 are more bulbous with no sign of pistils. I can see the start of preflowers on #5 but still a bit too small to tell what it is without magnification.

Day 48 (38): All is well, checked under the hood, roots going nuts, all plants hit the water and #4 has fishbones going under the water line. Not sure how much LK helped since roots were taking off before I added it, but it certainly didn't hurt and looks like accelerated growth. As of right...

Day 47 (37): Took a quick peek at the plants today, looking good. Wasn't going to take pics today but looks like preflowers are coming in. First 2 pics are of the biggest one #4, looks like it's gonna be a girl, can see the little pistils. #3 looks like it may be female also but I couldn't...

Oh yeah about my last Res that went brewery on me. The sugars I used have been exposed to air in the kitchen for some time. Almost positive stuff has cultured on the sugar that saw my Res as a buffet. No more quick fix additions to my Res going forward!
