The fox farm will make them water log if you don’t adjust the feedings.IMO ditch the fox farm and stick to coco and grow stones. If anything add casting to the coco.I think it is bro. But that’s ok! Many ways to skin a cat.
I know you’ll fall over in your chair but I’m going to be trying a mixture that mixes 1 part coco 1 part FFOF and 1 part grow stones.
A while back I wouldn’t consider it but I’ve seen results and heard reasons why said results work. The key is still being able to feed hourly. It will be a side by side of the same known clone so we can see exactly any difference. It will be on the same drip as the rest so the only difference will be the mix.
This will really help to show any difference. Everything will be 100% exactly the same wxcept the mix.
Everyone will learn from it
All about growing. Pun intendedwill really be cool to see!
At least your not doing this on your first grow!
It’s gnomes mix bro. Talked to him a lot abot it. Before I WOULD NEVER have put ffof in my Coco. But results are r silts and I’m willing to try things to see what it’s aboit. I won’t overwater them just to stick to it but once the roots fill out I’m hoping the watering will be able to handle the multiple feedings. It’s a test.The fox farm will make them water log if you don’t adjust the feedings.IMO ditch the fox farm and stick to coco and grow stones. If anything add casting to the coco.

I do agree I may have to adjust the feedings. But we’ll see when we get there. HahaThe fox farm will make them water log if you don’t adjust the feedings.IMO ditch the fox farm and stick to coco and grow stones. If anything add casting to the coco.
Damn, i haven't even read the whole thread! Impressive really! Its become some kind of initiation round here lol. Dont be shy to ask questions before you get to the finish line though. I think event needs to get some pins made up or something for anyone that can get through the whole thread with their sanity in check hahaha.Hi boys UK here..
Read this whole thread from the start! I'm on page 626 now so over half way.. fuck it's a lot of good knowledge.. I've changed my methods cos of you guys and it's working a treat.
You've saved me money and time. Priceless info thanks. @EventHorizan @Wisher619 @Thejoeybrown @incogneato
I'll give you a shout when I catch up.. few more weeks yet!
I ran one plant in 40/40/20 fox farm/coco/perlite. It ran alot like promix honestly, just didnt hold water as long which was nice. Im sure you'll kill it Joey, you got a green thumb for sure.It’s gnomes mix bro. Talked to him a lot abot it. Before I WOULD NEVER have put ffof in my Coco.

I grow straight Coco and love it but not scared to try new things to see how it works.
Thanks brotha. Yea like I said I never would have thought to mix coco and a peat mix together. But I’m open minded. Haha. I’m curious to see any difference. I will have to watch the watering but once the roots fill the pot it should be able to handle multiple waterings. Maybe not. But I will be able to see any difference.I ran one plant in 40/40/20 fox farm/coco/perlite. It ran alot like promix honestly, just didnt hold water as long which was nice.

well its pretty open and for what you got, so that is fine..
Is this an auto? No?
If not, next time instead of trimming all leaves but the top 2,
instead only snip off the top 2, wait a week and repeat trimming off the new top 2...
Wait a week, and flip...
2 weeks after flip remove all bottom leaves except for the top 3-4 leaves..
Tell me what you think between each method,
and which way you liked best..

Well he is prob 20 years older than me too..Lol that guy is on GH and insulin. Unless you want a distended gut I'd stay away from that ;)
Haha.. Naw he has me whooped pretty bad at 67 yrs old..Isn’t thag you??
5.8. Well I may set to 6.0 but the same as I do in Coco. Per recommendation of the person who’s mix it is. Hahah.No I think its great to try new methods, but there is certain parameters that need to be met.. Its all about feeding and that o2... Im really intrigued to see how it does... Should work great as long as he doesnt water log the root crown..
THE FUCKING CHAIR BROKE.. IM OUT!!!
Ok im back,, ha
Go for it homie...
What PH are you gonna give it? Ph perfect so it doesnt matter if is 5.8 hydro or 6.4 soil eh?
No I’m gonna give Cns. I want to do everything the same as my others so I see if there is any difference.No I think its great to try new methods, but there is certain parameters that need to be met..

We will see about it drying faster than straight Coco! Hahahaha. If that’s the case watwring frequency won’t be an issue. You know my favorite thing is more feedings and more o2. If it drys as quickly as you say we shouldn’t have an issue doing a true side by side!Nah it doesn't work for shit haha.
Believe it or not its really a very well aerated mix. For tbe size plants i grow and the volume of soil i use i am able to water fairly frequently. Ime, it dries out much quicker than str8 coco fer sure.
Imo, castings wud make em water logged b4 ffof wud...
I cant imagine it drying faster than coco but when the roots fill out the pot it should be about the same speed tho. I gotta agree with @Ggnome on the ffof, its not a mucky mix, shouldn't really water log with the coco and grow stones. Im just going by the mix i used but its almost the same. I used medium chunk perlite, coco and ffof. A little ewc too. All that said i still love the speed and simplicity of straight coco. So now i have a giant bag of perlite sitting around for nothing lol.We will see about it drying faster than straight Coco! Hahahaha. If that’s the case watwring frequency won’t be an issue.

Just a sprinkle of castings is no biggie. Coco + growstones or chow balls FTW! Ph 5.8 end of story. Ya heard it hear first the plants will not suck at the same rate. That was my only point. Can it work, sure.:smoking:Nah it doesn't work for shit haha.
