*Works great with seeds and rooted cuttings.
*Can be recycled if maintained accordingly.
*Can be used in a flood table environment.
*Easy to flush/rinse and won't drown plants.
*Is made from organic ingredients.
*Produces it's own myco colony.
*Can be used instantly.
1 - Coco brick (GH Cocotek)
1 - 30lb bag worm castings (Wiggleworm)
1 - 1 cuft marine compost (Roots Marine Green)
12 - liquid gallon measure of small perlite (Aurora)
(1.) pour 7 gallons of HOT water into a 20g pail (I use a 20g trash bin from home depot)
(2.) submerge the coco brick with the largest side facing up as it will expand outwards (I use a bamboo stick to hold it underwater)
(3.) mix in the other stuff while it's still kinda warm.
The reason for the hot water is because it expands the brick the fastest and kills any pathogens that may have been preserved in the brick. Also mixing in the amendments warm will help stimulate biological activity that comes from the worm castings and sea compost. Check out the aurora perlite I found it to be less dusty than most of the others I've seen in the industry.
***As with any coco soil calcium will need to be supplemented, so make sure your nutrients include a calcium source. (look at the back of your base or micro nutes) Currently I am testing this recipe with TLO variables and dry ferts and amendments. Roots Elemental is a 20% calcium powdered amendment I am using in the TLO variables. Still in testing.
Happy Farming!
