I have one of those big eco plus air7 hooked up to a big circular air stone thing in a 5 gal bucket with 2 gallons RO. Man I get a shit ton of bubbles.
Just running molasses and bennies with a dash a humus
Its easy really takes me less than 5 minutes to have it brewing. I cut it with half RO water and then water it in.
Plants are getting really sticky,,,,, but the UC with CS nutes is just as coated so I may be going CS nutes with teas next round in coco

Have you asked them if anyone has run there CS nutes with coco??

What are you running for bennies? EWC? Anything else? Also what are you running for humus? Gotta see what my store can get or has in stock....?

Im running OGbiowar bennies with alaskan humus soil and molasses thats it. I know more than one person running CS nutes in coco and there more than pleased with the performance.
If the CS nutes is getting me the same quality results with yield then I really dont need Aptus.
Maybe CS nutes with teas can give me the same results? I will find out next round

Very interesting. I guess final product quality, weight, smoke, smell and taste will let you know if aptus was worth it or not huh?

Thanks bud.

very sexy grow.

I just put together my first UC with 10 sites and im trying to get her dialed in. Like you said, first week was slow.
Im running straight maxibloom, had good results with it last time in coco and room wasn't even dialed in.

I may have missed it but do you run any sort of water chiller for the UC?

I hope i can get mine to perform even half as well as yours. looking forward to see results.

Hey big green. You know what I think would be the ultimate coco grow for the next round. Use same strain as this round. Feed CS nutes and og biowar tea once a week and then on half your plants feed aptus once a week. Then you'd kill two birds with one stone. First you'd figure out if cs as a base is better than h&g and you'd figure out if aptus does indeed improve quality and yield. Really wouldn't take too much effort feeding half the plants aptus once a week and I'm assuming you have enough aptus left over from this round so u wouldn't have to buy anymore. Let me know what u think. Love to see that happen!!!!

I do have enough Aptus for another round and I wont waste it. I might use it on the coco under 4 600w there a week in 12/12

Its all hand trimmed with a little help of coarse.

This week is total flush week. Today the coco rez got RO water and 5 ml per gal hibrix with a dash of salt.
Tomorrow UC gets RO water and CS roots for the rest of the week. Im hoping to start at the end of the week, no later than Monday

Very frosty, very fat!

Nice ;)

You say salt with your coco flush mate? Sounds interesting, does that help draw the buildup out somehow?

Its epsom salt Im in it for the sulfur

The coco buds are way harder then the UC. But then again they seem a few days ahead of the UC
