With Coco you just add nutrients and make sure the pH is correct and that's pretty much it.

Wow thats pretty simple. Have you used the Fox Farms Ocean Forest? I'm going to be using that

No I've used coco previously but switched to Doc buds hi brix kit to increase the overall quality of my herb.
That’s what I’m using now mj. Foxfarm soil and nutes. I wanted the forgiveness of soil for a couple grows while I learned about other mediums. I will be switching to doc bud’s High Brix kit once I’m out of soil.

What do you think of it? I have that along with the nutes. I have tye grow big, big bloom and tiger bloom
I like it so far but don’t really have anything to compare it to. Lol. I use those 3 and some of their other products as well. I ordered the foxfarm dirty dozen. Don’t go over half strength though. And you probably don’t need to add any nutes for close to a month once you get your plant in the soil. Maybe a little calmag.

good point. Nute company try to push more product and tell growers to overfeed and end up frying plants.

Thats good to know, I've been stressing about overfeeding the plants, I want to be able to grow them as natural as possible but I'm just starting out with these.
There is a lot of good stuff in that soil to start off with. You won’t need to add anything for a bit. And when you do I’d probably make the first dose 1/4 strength just to be safe. I think the big bloom is not quite as strong as the other 2 but I’d still start off small.

Good luck to your first grow journal Mjc5281
I didn’t have it for this grow but I’ll be receiving some great white mycorrhizae to use on my next one. Great for roots.

The nutrients always seem so risky, it's crazy how hard it is to create nature lol

Is that another brand of nutrients?
I don’t believe it carries nutritional value. I believe it is fungi and bacteria that create a very active and healthy ecosystem in the root zone. Bigger roots = bigger buds. And a lot of very very good growers on this forum swear by it.

Ill have to get myself some, so you use it along with nutrients?
Yeah. I think people even just sprinkle it in the hole when they transplant and some use it with every feeding.

Okay, I'm not sure if this is the right way to add to the journal but this is day 2. I had some people comment on the lighting, I was focusing too much on the temperature and humidity without taking into consideration the amount of energy they're receiving from the light. Because of this I moved the light down closer to the plants and added two small 50w grow lights as well. The water is changed daily in the cups and the plants are misted throughout the day.
