Hey guys I am interested in this Gypsum in Coco coir that I am reading about.
Is it possible to use the standard gypsum from a feed / garden store here, or do I need to source something different?
I have plants that are going to be done in a week, guessing this is too late to start applying for some benefit?
How much are you guys applying? Maybe missed this above
Cheers

I handfeed. I use 2 teaspoons to 5 gallons of Ro. Comes to about 350tds. Then I also flush once a week with RO and about 500tds. Flush is 500tds.

I read the thread but canāt make a conclusion yet. If starting from scratch should I go for the jacks or MB? I currently use GH 3-part in Coco but Iād like to move away from liquid nutrients and simplify as much as I can.
Well it is a Jacks thread so most will say Jacks, including me. Jacks has been around forever
In my opinion MB is good and it includes a bunch of adjuncts that you may end up adding for other solutions. Itās a one size fits all type of product that is a bit less work.
Jackās has a better overall solution if you plan on tweaking, changing nutrient ratios, want more control.
Iāve done both and am now primarily using Jackās for indoor/greenhouse stuff +adjuncts (beneficials, humic acid, sugars, aminos) but continue to use MB for the outdoor stuff ā¦ mostly because it easier to mix up bulk amounts for the larger outdoor effort (soil with greater leaway) vs having better control for the smaller indoor crops running in a peat mix.
FWIW, there are MANY different options from Jackās with the 3-2-1 program being a popular plan but also many other ways via Jackās to get similar results but with differing āpivotā nutrients depending on the objectives.
edit: I think Iām confusing MB with MC. Acronyms. Anywaysā¦
I think maxibloom is about as simple as it gets. If I were you @Xray1 Iād go research Lucas or kiss methods.
