Damn, I actually think I posted in the wrong thread or the guy deleted his post?
People had him so noided out on things, he was going to eliminate perlite from his mix, he didn't want to screw up his grow. Sry, it kinds pissed me off & made me feel sry for the guy. Perlite is huge, probably the most important part of a soil mix, air is everything.
I truly felt like apologizing until I reread the thread & saw ol VF's original input.
Mmmmkay, this after I had said
A couple months experience & its a great ADDITIVE???
I did learn 1 thing tho... Never say "Screw Coco" amongst a bunch of coco groupies lol This shit is more flammable than PC vs Mac debates

Ignore the troll.
LOL ya that is what I was thinking. Anyhooooo, coco is a great ADDITIVE to our peat grows. I find it help with the CEC. And BTW....I have no problems and run it mixed to50% peat and 50% coco and my organic additives.........no cal\mg problems but I have only been growing for a couple of months. LOL

Screw coco, stick to peat until you get a few grows experience. A lot less problems.
This stick to peat is really good advice for a beginner, have many grows with that crap in the mix & know this as fact!
I ran a dirt shootout & the coco mix finished last with the usual coco curse yellowing. Yes I know how to prevent it, but why? see below...
Personally, I'm not changing one damn thing in my methods or recipes simply to accomodate some waste product in my soil mix.
Hell, 1/2 the infirmary issues are coco curse related lol Its a real simple fix... Throw it back in the trash where it came from.
If you do choose to use coco? Better buy stock in Cal-Mag lol
Anyone with any coco experience, should at least get a small chuckle outta that & I didnt even bring up all the N/K & potential lockout issues.l
