    Default If your thinking of using coco

    Hi guys just a quick one......I recently bought a bag of coco ( 2nd grow with coco ) it cheap at £7 so just to be on the safe side I flushed it and collected the first run off, 1950ppm was the reading and 1767ppm on the second run off so flushed the hell out of it and got it down to 60ppm, so think on guys before you pot up...... have a top Saturday folks

    Some of the cheap coco is soaked in saltwater lagoons as part of its processing so contains high concentrations of salt which is why you're getting high Ec numbers in the runoff...Also you want a good ratio of the hairs from the coconut husk, these hairs are actually tubular, it's these microscopic tubes that help to retain the oxygen molecules...The cheap coco i've noticed seems to contain a lot of the smaller particles and even the ground up shell...

    Buy a decent proven coco is my advice it will save you a load of grief in the long run..I only use Canna coco pro plus, its steam sterilised and inoculated with trichoderma to get your plants off to a flying start...
