    Default Coco nutrients with clay pebbles? Will it work?

    Hey,

    Seems like a really stupid question but...... has anyone ever used coco nutrients in a DWC system with clay pebbles. Obviously these nutrients are made to be used with coco coir medium, which I understand.

    It's just I've been offered 2x5 litres of the stuff for free. My next system plans to be using clay pebbles in a DWC system. But I've not brought the nuts for it yet. If it's a total no go, I will keep the stuff for a future grow

    Cheers John

    Coir is inert, as are clay pebbles, so yes.

    When i first started coco, i was waiting on coco nutes, and one of the top dogs on here told me to use a bit of aqua vega, which is basically DWC nutes to keep her going till my coco nutes arrived. Im not sure how it would work the other way round though

    They will work, but coco sheds minerals at different rates than hydro and you may have a few mineral imbalances as you grow.
