@Dragon you have interesting ideas and no fear in sharing. Kudos.
Are you saying that you currently have plants outside and snow is coming?

I’m not arguing with you and I totally understand and comprehend everything you are saying and how organic gardening works. I was just trying to post a grow log about why I grow in coco and people started turning it into a debate over all these other things.

If you want to use coco in your soil, that would be good to help keep moisture in, coco soaks up moisture like a sponge, way better than soil and it holds in oxygen better than soil even when it is wet.

Concrete and cement aren’t the same thing.
Again, you’re not understand what the term organic meanswhen were talking about growing plants. I don’t know I’d you’re doing this purposefully. But I’m done pointing this out.

Sorry I didn’t get that was a grow log. I thought you were opening a thread to discuss about coco effectiveness (and added nutrients in the mix). This misunderstanding probably explains why the discussion is circling around then. I’ll shut up and follow the grow

Yeah I might share my magic soon. Your friend the troll’s harassment the other day made me question the integrity of this board and it’s members. I’m happy discussing things for now. I certainly don’t need anyone’s approval and never had.
It’s never been easy for a Dragon to make a quiet entrance.

Excellent thread!
I’ve always wanted to grow using coco coir, but I grow it outdoors and I don’t have an irrigation system. I wanted to start adding coco to my current mix, what is the recommendation? What percentage of coco would I add to my mix? I use 50% peat and 50% perlite or carbonized rice husk, what would be the recommendation? mix 50% of this mix with 50% coco or 70% mix with 30% coco?
Thanks guys!
Real coco coir is only coco and perlite as far as I know. Use equal amounts by volume. Seems like a lot of perlite at first but the perlite helps the drainage after the roots get tight. .

Thats good to know. I think what I was trying to say in the beginning is that I used to think that synthetics were evil because of what i was hearing about them but I dont think that anymore.
I’ll do a real grow log someday
What have u been smoking lately?

Just start a thread and throw in weekly photos.
No need to test anybody. Just be yourself.
