I have used gypsum in coco coir.Does anyone have experience amending their coir with gypsum? Apparently it adds to aeration as well. Got the idea here: https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/meeks-2013-dapper-grow-log.53463/page-14#post-1100572 (post #263)
@nMEEKS suggested 150g/50l (approx 1.75 cu ft, or a standard bag)
Maybe amending crab meal in the first pot for veg (for the calcium and chitin) and gypsum in the final pot for the end of veg and flower (for the calcium and sulfur).
I've added all types of stuff
Rice hulls
Peat
Worm casting
Turface
Sand
The best for my hempy is simple perlite and coco
40-50%
Relax and grow on
@We Solidarity Well said. Are you running 2 gallon pots or 3 gal?
My 2gal bags were completely filled with coco last run. There was no coco to recycle, just root mass.peat's not renewable and will eventually run out - I like to grow responsibly and since I'm not recycling media coco is the way to grow. Plus I've never seen a cutting root a whole 1 gallon pot in two weeks until I started using coco.
On it right now. Will report back, TXhydro. Im reading a lot that makes me think horticultural charcoal is a critical amendment.Has anyone tried
Biochar with coco in a hempy??
Useing 50/50 coco peri lite now
Just reading up on it
Mix is about 10%
Thanks
For real. Just bought a blender to grind it down in liquid. Plant carbon smoothies comin up soon@Funkadelic
I've been reading up on it also and it maybe a good amendment for my hempy.
Keep us informed...
Thanks
Peace n luv
Rice hulls don't float and are cheap.Just picked up a pound of rice hulls for $1.50
Going to try this instead of my usual 50/50 perlite coco mix and see what it does
Peace n love
