I'm using myself as a guinea pig, I was a pig to start with so it isn't much of a stretch.
I'm sure you guys have better ideas than mine, but I'm running my first drain-to-waste Coco plants, and I'm trying something a bit different. I am only running one Cannabis plant, (Samsara Green Love Potion fem) and it is alongside two climbing Nasturtiums (Tropolaeum). I have a hunch that people over-feed Cannabis and under-feed Nasturtiums, so I'm running them both on the same feed. I also have chilis, tomatoes and thai basil in the closet, also on DTW Coco.
I'm planning on using Jack's Pro Hydro FeED 16-4-17 and Jack's Classic Bloom Booster with a little CalMag+ here and there.
I bought the big brick of GH CocoTek, expanded it in tap water, then stirred in a small bag of GrowStone Aerator stuff and a fair bit of perlite. I then thoroughly rinsed it with distilled water, which was pH'd after adding 1 teaspoon of CalMag+ per gallon to charge and stabilize the cation exchange potential. I also mixed in some Mosquito Bits to keep the gnats at bay.
I germinated in RockWool 1-inchers and planted them in the coco, all the veggies are in 2 gallon smart pots. One Nasturtium and the Cannabis are in 3 gallon smart pots, the other Nasturtium is in a 3.5 gallon Hempy bucket! I'm running Blumats on everything but the Hempy, I'll post pictures shortly. Anyone think I'm way off base? Anyone think I'm a genius? Anyone bored to fracking tears?
