Lazy Man Wants to Use Coco....

Coco is meant to be fertigated often, not watered in.
For sure.

I only suggested buying good quality coco, transplanting rooted clones into proper size containers and watering-in. Meaning water-in to runoff, let it dry back a day or so, then work your way up to multiple feeds per day depending if you trying to achieve veg or generative ques. I run (2) 0.5gph emitters per 1.5gal of pure coco, 3 week veg, 9 per light.

OP, this is lazy man growing in coco. It's DTW, I fill up a rez ever 4-7 days depending on what week in bloom I'm in. Cleanup plants a few days before flip, 2.5-3 weeks do an aggressive leaf strip and I don't touch the plants for the next 7 weeks. Pretty lazy growing style if you ask me... I'm being 100% serious too.

Your solution is Earth Dust.
3/1-Coco/perlite
Sprinkle on the earth dust.
Water.
Bloom comes, sprinkle some more and continue watering.
12 plants - 50$
Reuse medium.
This looks interesting. It's certainly simple enough. If I understand the product literature, all I have to do is mix the Base product with coco, keep it moist and let it sit for a couple of weeks to cook. Have you actually used this stuff (in coco coir)?

I like things to be simple, but I want to use coco coir. I will take the time to pre-soak the coco in a strong calmag solution to prep it, but after that I don’t want to measure anything except the ph of the water. Do any of you growers use Jack’s Classic 20-20-20 fertilizer to grow weed in coco? I really want to just use the 1tbs plastic cup that comes in the tub and eyeball about 1/3 or 1/2 to get the strength of the fertilizer about right, set the ph around 6 and water the plants. Do any of you guys take this lazy approach to growing in coco?
Lots do. Check the forums.

“Why are my leaves crispy?”

“Is it normal for leaves to fall off when you flip?”

I don't think Jacks even bothers packaging Epsom Salts anymore. I don't see it on their website or anywhere else.

Just found it on Jacks online store. $27.75 for a 2.2lb bag. :o

Sure have. For those wanting to get into organics, it's a very easy foot in the door.
edit: it's a system similar to Subcool's Super soil, but you let the microlife develop in the pot instead of 'precooking' several bags of soil.

Walgreens/Mart prices vary per state too. I think i pay like 6 or 7 bux for the 7lb bag of plain generic, but I also pay 8 bux for a 3lb bag of Dr Teal's for myself
