Hopefully so, im in australia so we don't have many options when it comes to soil or peat based mediums unless you make your own mixes, which equals bugs and pests. Loving the coco a bit more work cause i hand water but much better growth, health and yeild.Good stuff. That should be really useful info for the op.
I'm going to switch to Coco on the next grow. I may be asking for advice and a little help!
no worries heaps of members can help with that
Current grow is 5 autos ranging from 4weeks to 5plus weeks 4 are in canna terra professional potting mix. plant front right is in coco/perlite the canna plants have had 3 feeds starting at week 3 using canna vega little cal/mag due to very soft tap water. ec mix is usualy 0.3 calmag 0.6 vega 0.3 flores 1.2 ec total and this strenghth will most likely cause a bit of tip burn/ discolouration, but isn't really an issue. The canna terra is tricky to use with autos sometimes as when to add nutes. sometimes they can handle at 2 weeks some can go as long as 4 weeks but then its a juggle of how much grow to bloom? I usualy keep a good amount of nitrogen going in through the stretch preflower stage.
Another tent currently underway 4 autos again 5 weeks in all in the canna terra these ones got fed at week 2. Had a bit of the potting mix left going full coco/perlite on runs coming up.
It's a good medium for clones this strawberry cheese had a good start and life in the canna didnt feed this clone till nearly week 4 so the medium has a good starting amount of N, did notice a little calcium def at this time but my tap water has an ec of 0.1 so ill always give a good starting dose of calimagic with first couple of feeds then more during start of flowering.
