First time grower using coco

I have begun to soak the canna block as we speak. Looks like it might be a late night tonight. I am gonna be like a surgeon with those roots while transplanting. More like bomb squad - handle with EXTREME care!, ha ha. bkstylz, what light schedule are you using? I have been doing 20/4 from the start. Seems pretty good.

I've been doing 24/7 from the start...But I am going to go 20/4 when I start using my MH....yeah good luck with that, WHat size pots or bags are you going to transplant to?
 
See the thing is I got 18 one gallon bags and 9 two gallon bags. I think I am going to put nine of the plants in the two gallons to start. It kinda works out though because one the plants is way behind/toast. It was the first to break the soil but the seed shell stayed on for a couple days. When I carefully plucked it off(came off very easily), it looked fine, just like the others. But it hasn't grown at all since then. Looks exactly the same. greenish yellowish leaves curled up into a ball, stem is still green. All others have wide sets of two leaves. I'm just going to leave it in the tray or put it in a one gallon if the tap root gets longer.

You asked about my ph earlier. Walmart only had the tester drops so I'm being ghetto and using vinegar to adjust. It seems to work very well. A half capful in a tray of water lowers ph from 7.4 to 6.0. As I said I will be getting legit stuff once I make the trip to the hydro store.
 
LOL....no I was just curious. I have 3 gallon bags...but that is only because that is what came with the kit.
 
I put one of the gallon bags next to one the 2 gallon, both all unfolded and standing up. They really don't look that much different so I figure it's better to just go right to the two gallon and skip the transplant. You should be alright with the gallon size though. I'm telling you I even got the bags mixed up a couple time because it is so hard to tell the difference in size - they are all the same height.
 
bkstylz, Oh, I was wondering how you were gonna make three gallon bags work for five plants. I'm a retard. I would probably want to start in 3 gallon size if had the choice, the 2 gallons don't look very big.
 
look at my grow journal when you get a chance.I used to grow hydro, but now I'm on the coco band wagon 4th run,I love it.

2 gallons of coco can easily dish out a 4 foot plant.

Yeah...I've heard that a couple of times...but I plan on using these since I already paid for them.

should I be concerned with the ph balance of the water / nutes at this point? I did test the nutes I have and I seem to be around 5.5 - 6.0
