Thanks all!! Hubcap, I am loving the Coco so far. What worried me about switching after a decade in soil was watching the ph so close and all the extra work watering more. I can tell you I water alot less now with coco, I was shocked. I just recieved my new ph meter yesterday also. This is my third ph meter, lol, I clean them and store them wet religously. This time I spent the extra cash and got a top of the line meter. ISFET Mini lab 120!! It rocks!!! Built to last, store it dry, clean it with soap and water with a toothbrush once in a while. The coco growth is unreal so far compared to soil. RB
