Watering to run off is interesting. Goes against everything I've read but apparently that means nothing as your plants are some of the nicest I've seen in Gaia. Keep it simple next run and following your method

I've read through this thread a couple of times and it seems that the dry amendments mentioned are used in some type of soil or Promix HP peat moss......or a combination.

Does anyone use it successfully in a coco/perlite mix without any soil or peat?

Yes I think if you look at the first post the guy said yes his dad showed him how to use Gaia Green in coco onlly, I I like Royal Gold coco it's made in Humboldt county . exspensive but top grade you tube them they have several coco products. peace

I use the Gaia green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 and add in my own microbes and use silica through the whole grow and it shows I used to just use a prebuilt ffof with a few different amendments and it worked as it should’ve but once I started making my soils with Gaia green and using recharge and silica it got so much better night and day.

After 3 day off cure the hydro bud start to taste good.
The Organic taste a lot more and hit me strong even without cure ...
Overall i got better looking buds from the hydro setup but they are less dense and less terpen.
Next grow ill go for only strawberry banana a lot more resistent and produce more with the kush taste .
Peace !!

That seems to be a good combination. I just tried a couple autos in OF+EWC+extra perlite. I stunted them in a starter mix that almost killed em and I lost 2-3 weeks of veg time. I almost tossed them but moved them into the OF mixture and they took off. Around day 30 I started top dressing small amounts of GG regularly. The plants are ridiculously short but have really produced some nice fat buds….all I’ve given them for the last 60 days is GG 444 & 284, silica, and stump tea for the microbes.
I’m thinking they need one more week, two at the most.
Im running some photos right behind them in Coco amended w/ GG, EWC and silica. They are growing like I’ve never seen…..I’m hoping to top dress routinely throughout flowering and get the same killer nuggets.

I buy botanicare brand you mix it with your water you use it with every watering it promotes strong roots and helps create a protective wall on the root itself but you have to use with every watering I use a gallon with every grow

Hey guys I'm new to gaja green.
Im in coco50%/ffof25%/perlite15%/ewc10% mix. I've been using fox farm trio nutes up til now. I water daily and Im on a feed water feed schedule with a qtr strength of suggested nutes so I could feed 4 times a week at 1500ppm. I'm on 4th week of bloom. I just added a top dressing of gg 70%284/30%444. How long does it take gg to break down? Should I still feed it the liquid nutes til gg breaks down? Would a gg/ewc tea make things work faster? Do I give it top dressings and teas or is that redundant and both ways are feedings. I plan to start giving it full tilt bloom booster in a couple of weeks. Will it be ok with gg and not burn the plant? Thanks in advance for any advice yall got.
