what im doing now( i just cut the coco to approx 60/40 soil ,coco,,)
this sounds heavy
What does your well water ppm/pH to? Do you know what's in it? We had well water as kid, I remember it tasting like a mineral, iron maybe...actually I loved it.

yeah its sorta heavy but i was not suggesting you go with my soil coco mix just coco, coco can be heavy depends on the size container,, thats odd you had low yield and algae hmm maybe it was not real clean coco, did you wash it real well? i have great yields with coco and so does everyone i know of that uses it, was the algae on top or inside the hempys? i put a layer of hydroton on top to prevent that and get full use of the coco,saves water too, you gotta paint the outside of the containers black to prevent light transmission, did you mix in pearlite with your coco, some brands are to fine and hold to much water by themselves ,
my well water is nasty it smells like a fart the hot water side anyway, near as i can tell its sulfur,iron and manganese, along with a ton of calcium and lime, the ppm is average 850 the ph is 7 we dont drink it or cook with it, it taste like rusty nails or a bloody nose! the landlord is supposed to put in an ro system, im picky i drink good water, i cut the well water with ro for the plants sometimes
