Switching from promix to coco

Personally I would leave them in promix and just feed them as if they were in hydro. I've grew in hydro for years, ebb n flow, then aeroponics, even fogponics. Then switched back to soil now soilless for simplicity sake. Hydro is great if you can tinker with it all the time. Just my $.02

If I were you id just run your coco one last time and try to do it the very best you can

then crop and go buy a nice system that way you dont have a lot of build time only to find a leak lol

the only issue that can arise that I didnt think about

whats your running temps if they're too high you might want to fix that first

Temps and environment dialed in doesn't get over 80 I can put it cooler but I'm running co2 and I read that's a good temp for co2

Ok cool Do I build the same setup for veg or just do dwc in veg
Lol
If your gona grow them big ol trees then youll want to veg them in the system

You can veg in seperate systems but I dont think you get how big the roots will get

they will get all tangled it will be hard to veg for more than a few weeks without damaging the roots trying to transplant

You should be ok but may need a cooler I cant say as long as you res temps dont climb past 75 or so

Actually if your res stays cool your plant can handle the heat cause the roots are cool
but if the res gets to warm or dont change your res probs can arrise

I'd like to build my own to lol and yea individual buckets a pain to water but that's what I've been doing 8 10g pots with raw coco

Just use 1 dwc single set up in place of one plant see if you like the difference

this way your guaranteed your normal crop basically and will let you try dwc and get a side by side comparison

its win win win
