Coastal Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Glad your back around @flboy, looking like your growing some really nice stuff from @Mystic Funk too! In Coco the ph is naturally over 7 where as peat is under 5..to fix the low ph of peat they add dolomite (calcium and magnesium carbonates) so when you first feed your plant in soil with peat /dolomite although you might only be mixing 600ppm of feed in the res, the roots will be getting way more once that dolomite is soluble.. to match this in coco is a challenge because the high ph. This makes using dolomite or other calcium’s hard because most have a higher ph aswell. i found using coco I did best giving the plants a higher feed with more cal/mg as well as gypsum either top dressed or in the res really got things going fast. FWIW I usually fed my usual 600ppm feed and added about 150-200 ppm of gh calimagic and 150-200 ppm of gypsum worked extremely well. Link to comment

Very nice pineapple funk. ( Crowed pleaser) and yields very well.The bubble dubb I have in veg. The baboon bubbagum has some solid phenos in those packs as well. I have not been disappointed at all with anything I have done from this guy. Sounds like one of the testers I have ran here will be available soon but I'll let @Mystic Funk talk about that Link to comment

flboy Posted December 2, 2019 Author Share Posted December 2, 2019 Here's how the coco run is looking these days. Bubble dubb and GG4 BX 3. Just bumped the feed up to 2.0 ec going into 2nd week of bloom. Thinking maybe cut the cal-mag out next week. What u think? Link to comment
Coastal Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 No, you need cal mg with coco... you wouldn’t want to even lower it until you flush unless you are subbing in some gypsum or other calcium source... lookin good in there so far! Link to comment

Thanks for the advise buddy. I've been adding 6 ml per gallon so far and seems to be doing what it's suppose to. So keep it in till flush ✓ Link to comment
flboy Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 Little update on my coco run. Little tip burn at 2.2 so backed it down to 2.0 EC. Liking the floraflex nutrients to this point. GG4 BX 3 on left side of pix Bubble Dubb on right Link to comment
