Botanicare CocoGro right out of the bag (not the bricked version), not washed.

Seems to be doing well for my roots.

:ying: lol, ya i did read it ,straight over my head, we dont' get all them name brands, thank christ its 'quicker to sort the shit out, it is obvious,lol when looking rg tupur.:artist:
 
I'd like to see real data. Test all these brands of coco, take a beer cup, poke holes in the bottom, fill with coco from the bag, and pour either RO or tested water and test the runoff.

"i use this or that out of the bag" doesn't help much, too many variables, coco is pretty much coco except for coarseness and salt levels.

I tested many brands, recently Atami/B'cuzz tested around 2000 ppm's (poison) and the best coco's I tested were House and Garden (150 ppm above the test water ppm's and Canna always tests the best (50-100), ALWAYS.

So is you ppm meter a .5 or .7 conversion or??? Just a suggestion but, You should take an EC reading instead next time and let us know what they come out to since all EC is the same everywhere unlike ppm meters.
Over the past coupla years I have boughten canna coco and it has been .2 EC outta the bag everytime. recently I bought a bag of Botanicare Cocogro (bagged) and it came out to .5 EC .

I go with Royal Gold. Like to start in RG basement mix, then transplant to Tupur. Basement mix is good at getting seedlings to root.

Thanks, I'll be trying Canna next time I run out of coco.
