New Coco Grow

I have 25 plants and I am looking to grow in COCO.
I need to figure:

1. The cheapest way to grow 25 plants in 3 gallon pots.
2. best type/Combo COCO
3. Nutes
4. Watering amount.

Thanks.

I'm just about to start using coco full time. I'm using BCuzz coco in Smart Pots, House&Garden Nutes and some cal/mag. I love coco so far as compared to fox farm soil and hydro based of ease of maintenance and less problems.

Early on I was watering every 3-4 days, but now in flower I'm watering every other day. My current grow I'm using 100% coco and my just started Ive mixed in some Perlite.

Can't you water daily in CoCo?

u can but its not always necessary..it really depends on how hot and dry it is..like if your grow room is in the 80's and really dry your ganna have to water every day..i got one gallon pots, temp never goes over 77 humidity stays around 20-35%..i water everyother day then when im in the 6th week or 7th week of flower i water every day

So have started using General hydroponics nutes. Anyone have experience with this brand? The hydro store rep swore they were the best bang for the buck.

I have now bought 2 more bags for repotting. This will be the third and final potting. They will be put in 5 gallon pot for 12/12. This Coco grow like wild fire. Pics to come soon.

I'm loving the coco with the House & Garden nutes. I think I might prefer the straight coco and not mixing in perlite.

I'm straight coco and it works great. No need for anything else. what do you mean by House and Garden?

House & Garden nutrients. They have coco specific.

I had 8 that I had started 12/12 from seed I got a lot of stretching from them I hope I can get them to do what I want. it's my first attempt. I have already pulled 4 males so I have 4 left. We will see. They are in 2.5 liter pots. Do I need to go bigger or could I yield an ounce in these pot? 800 watt hps if your wondering.

lol also remember dry coco can start a wild fire like no other....some of the best tinder in the world.

I use botanicare cns17 line (3 parts, along with cannazyme, rhizotonic, silicon supplement and calmag)....I cant say its the best bang for the buck...but at roughly 40$ a gallon you cant go wrong...I've watched alot of good grows with it. Check out RZZA's grows...he use's the CNS line also.

just remmeber you will be using nutes 95% of the time with every watering....so 1 quart for a lot of plants isnt going to cut it.

Not quick enough. It takes several days to start dying up
