Thanks bro 
this is my first time using cocoa.
I opted out of the cocoa with added perlite so it would hopefully retain water better.
They were showing signs of some sort of deficiency a few weeks ago so I started full strength nutes every watering, they are loving it so far. Watering about every other day.
Using GH trio, calimgic and floriliscious plus
1tsp/ gal of the trio and cal mag
1tsp/5 gal of floriliscius plus
Got another timber 200w citizen I haven't hung yet. When I do I'l be at 1k of cob's

I use the gh-3 part nutes & additives with the simple recirculating schedule as I've got gallons of it I also have the floranova bloom that works good & for the late flower stage I finish with soul synthetic nutes as they have kelp & alfalfa extract as well as molasses but the gh-3 part is the backbone of the operation & I use the others because I don't want to waste them lol

you've really stepped up your game that's gonna work out just fine I'm having a minor hiccup with the stretch in the blurple tent but it's gonna work out nothing like supercropping a Scrog lol glad you're settled in & getting busy

Thanks herk. Hoping the work pays off on some much better yields. Been preplanning this room in my Mind for years. Growmouse and green genes cob rooms on YouTube have been inspiring. I like the efficiency. It's been perfect temps without any cooling system. Just keeping the room negative by exhausting into the attic.
Curious how a scrog would do next round

With a Scrog you can fill in every square inch of available light a drip system or flood table make it a lot easier to feed after the screen is in place but a hose & funnel would work

Set up a trash can reservoir, submersible pump going to drippers. Watering's now a breeze

Happy with the cocoa so far. Your definitely right. My power went out for a few hours yesterday for maintenance, glad I wasn't relying on air pumps.

I've gone back to a coco based medium because it's far less problematic than the waterfarms or the dwc buckets & I can devote the time they consumed just in maintenance to other areas of my grows

Nice, I wish I had that much space for a grow op , those are some interesting looking drippers, you just place them on the medium?

The rooms being absorbed quickly. Can't wait to get it dialed in and get some decent yields. They're 5 or 6" stakes with dripped heads. Pretty basic watering system. Once I get use to the schedule and plant needs I might put the reservoir pump on a timer. How are things on your end? Looks like you've been busy trimming. Are you doing another round of indoor yet?

Nice looks simple I like it. That doesn’t sound bad would make it much easier on a timer.
And no I have not started on my next op. I’m debating what Genetics to pop. Also will be growing in a sip bed probably 50-70g of coco/tupur and probably just grow two big i girls on a 5x6 to a scrog. Either I’ll grow ninja fruit if I get any females, or I’ll pop my Cali King from GLC or my Tahoe Sap from IHG goal is to get a pound with those two girls.if not more
