Unofficial Coco Coir Growers Thread

I got a sticker on my CNS17 that said "Use 25% less indoor/under HID" It was bullsnitch, but despite my container of Calmag plus, I haven't needed it. I think this stuff is really made for coco.

Lynette Morgan is hot.

But has anyone done a full flowering session with the stuff?

IndySativa - Yes, those are some very serious roots. Those plants aren't showing rootbound signs? WTF? If they made slabs, I'd be stoked.

They do... Canna's COGr slabs

ok so i got all my ish for a drip set up

i have 1/2in tubing from my pump then i have 1/8in tubing that split off from that. from there its connected to a steak but its not one that drips, it just holds the 1/8 tubing and the water comes out n a stream

is this ok or is it better to have the water dripping slowly. with the stream of water i think the plants would get watered with runoff in 1 min or less. but iono i havent tested it yet

ok i tested it it takes about 1:45 to fill up a 16oz cup which is what ivve been giving them everyday, cept for yesterday i had to gave them 32oz to get runoff so i'll feed for 3 mins twice a day

Hey aizen,

that's perfectly fine, in fact it's an advantage as you are able to see if the water is running or not, with my drippers i have to pull the spike out and look to see if the water is still running.

you will be amazed to see how fast the plants develop once they are being watered automatically.

have you decided on a solution for the dirt that can block drippers? if you don't want to spend on a good particle filter, maybe 2 nylon stockings over the pump, one on top of the other, will do the job?

peace :wave:

We have a go.
Sensi Star, "G13", Chronic and OHxSk#1. First three are in Aquafarms with coco except the "G13" is in hydroton and the OHx is in soil coco mix.

Cutting of the "g13" is from this plant.

Hey Aizen, I just finished automating my veg space a few days ago, and I decided not to use drippers because it seemed they might just present more clogging opportunities. I have 12 1/4-inch open feed lines at the base of each plant and solution does come out of the bottoms of my one-gallon pots pretty quickly, within a couple of minutes. I was concerned that the coco might not get uniformly wet, but it doesn't seem to be a problem.

I love the automatic watering and can't wait do the same in my flowering room.

This morning, my nephew was playing in a potted plant in the living room like a damn house cat. He grabs a handful to show me and tells me the coco feels like gorilla fur.

How he would know that, I don't know . . . But I think I believe him.
