Hey, just about to start my second grow and had a quick question about how to store buffered coco. I’m starting 4 seedlings in solo cups filled with coco/perlite and will be transplanting to a 3L pot before the final 7gal fabric pots. If I buffer 28gal of coco, which roughly how much I’ll need for the full grow, am I able to sit the coco in a cupboard to dry and take it as I need or will I need to buffer fresh batches a day or so before transplanting to bigger pots? Cheers

I don't see an issue with letting buffered coco dry out to store, but I wouldn't do it in a cupboard, that's a mold problem waiting to happen. I used to buffer all the coco I would need for the winter while the weather was still nice out, worked fine. Think of all the buffered, bagged coco they sell, you're just doing the same thing.
