can I use coco peat , and grow organically? I.e lab and aact and the rest ? Cors I’ve seen the benefits of growing with it like light airy soil and holds water well,but where ever I read says use hydroponic nutrients ,

Like I was thinking use like
1part coco
1part perlite
1 part ewc

Like the coco will take the part of the potting soil
Any help would be greatly appreciated

The coco I use in my no-till soil literally says "for hydroponic use only" lmao...don't tell me how to live my life. Coco is a way better sustainable alternative to peat moss....I don't really support the harvesting of moss. I'd suggest cutting it with quality compost as well...do 1/6 compost and 1/6 castings. I would also add a portion of real dirt/topsoil to that mix as well for the clay. Real dirt, coco, castings, perlite, and compost has been an amazing base for me so far
