LMFAO, dude I hear ya. I'm new here. But I got lucky and was taught how to grow in coco by gaius and as a result, I've learned this coco shit really, really well. And it kinda makes a guy feel like the Aflac duck to be standing there telling a guy all he needs to know about how to fix a problem that's killing his plants and see him continue to add this, or water less, or maybe put beaver shit or bird beaks in the water, or maybe turn the plants to face north during the day and south at night, hehe. Not growing in dirt, AINT ROCKET SCIENCE. It's so easy even I can do it, lol.oldpeculiar said:LOL...I hear ya mang. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to mojo again.
I didn't know gaiusmarius from owl's shit but he was the only one that consistently said the same thing over and over again. So I decided to let go of trying to wish things to happen and I started to do what he said would work. I guess the fact he was moderator of the newly formed coco group didn't hurt his credibility either, lol.
I guess when it's all said and done, some people need to fail every time they grow from seed till that magic number of failures hits em and they just say "what the fuck", I've fucked this up long enough. I'm gonna listen to what the people who don't fuck up have to tell me on how to do it.
Glad I started listening from the very beginning. Like I said, gaius is the reason I know how to grow in this medium and it's nothing to do with my superior abilities. He gets all the credit! But oldp, you know the guy, this is nothing new to you.
Peace oldpeculiar, think you've got the right idea, dude. Maybe I oughta just find a place to sit somewhere and whip out the old banana, lol. Least that way if I get blue in the face, I'll get some return on my investment. LMFAO.
And Dakota, I'm gonna make one more stab at it:
I'm not making fun of ya dude. My mind was running around in circles just like yours is, telling me it can't be that simple. But it is. Lower your pH to 5.8 by flushing your pots with tap water pH'd to 5.8 (2 gallon pots =at least a 4 gallon flush), water till 10-20% runoff every day with the correct pH of 5.8 to keep the pH from building up in your pots, feed with the correct NPK levels, and don't worry about shit unless ya see bugs. DON'T LET THE POTS GET EVEN CLOSE TO DRYING OUT BETWEEN WATERINGS IN COCO. When you do that in a soil less medium the salts build up and the pH starts rising on ya. If you start having leaf problems again way on down the road, flush again and repeat the above. What do you have to lose except 5 gallons of water. Your plants are going down for the count if you don't try it, so...
I'm done. oldpeculiar, you got an o2 mask I can borrow.
