Of all the claims one could make regarding coco vs soil, a difference in potency seems the least plausible

H3ad goes Coco

Utter bullshit. Have grown soil, rockwool and coco. Once you get your medium and it's nute requirements figured out it's all good.

If you are dialed in, and you flush properly, you will come out with just as good, if not better a product. More of it too.
Ill take the Pepsi Challenge with Organic weed, any day of the week.

cleaner smoke, faster growth but still weaker high, just facts, hydro erb is mono dimensional in comparisson, it cant compete, sure does grow fast though n look nice.
You're funny
Just so you know, that is only your opinion.
There is not one bit of data to support that weed grown in soil, has a higher THC content.
If so, link it. If not, start by saying, "In my opinion".

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Anybody use the Royal Gold coco? I was told it's ph stable and has been rinsed very well. My local hydro shop has it, i guess it's from humboldt?

3gro/3micro/10 bloom.Thier talking about
I could be wrong, and I don't feel like finding the post on this 3+3/10. But I am pretty sure that what that meant was 3ML hardwater micro + 3ML micro / (+) 10ML bloom.
H3ad does not use the Grow nute, at all...
They were trying to figure out a formula for the European GH Nutes, that was as close as possible to the US version of GH nutes. Since they have different formulas.
While I am posting, I wanted to update you guys on my plants.
They are doing fucking AWESOME! I cannot believe the growth rate and size of these plants. It is absolutely un-fucking-real.
There is NO WAY I am going to be able to fit as many plants in here as I thought I was going to. I was going to bud at least 12 plants at a time in 4-5 gallons of soil. But decided to give this a try along with the soil plants. There is NO comparison. PERIOD. The coco plants are at least 3 times as full, and the very bottom branches are just as tall as the tip of the plant (the cola).
This is just insane. I will never, EVER grow in soil again.
Coco RULES!

Yes jonezin is right. 3+3/10 is 3ml hardwater micro + 3ml softwater micro / 10ml bloom.
Although i wouldn't recommend that formula.....
Im not quite sure whats going on anymore as the ratios head gives in his first post dont correspond to the ratios i get on the GH calculator and GHE calculator on the respective websites.
Heres what i get :
What h3ad says GH 6/9 in 3.78l is in his first post:
N : 97 P:60 K: 105 Ca: 97 Mg:27 S:41
6/9 GH in 3.78l according to http://www.generalhydroponics.com/genhydro_US/floraseries_calculator.html
N : 78 P:55 K: 94 Ca: 80 Mg:35 S:47
6/9 GHE in 4l according to: http://gb.eurohydro.com/flora-calc.html
N : 92 P:68 K:105 Ca: 82 Mg:45 S: 50
8/12 GHE in 5litres (what ive been using, its 6/9 in 3.78l extrapolated to a 5l)
N : 97 P: 72 K:112 Ca:88 Mg:48 S: 54
3+3/10 ghe in 3 litres (h3ads recommendation )
N : 116 P:101 K:153 Ca:68 Mg:67 S: 75
3+3/10 ghe in 4 litres
N : 86 P:76 K:115 Ca:51 Mg:50 S: 56
All i know for sure is that GH 6/9 works perfectly and GHE 6/9 has worked beautifully for me from clone to 2 weeks into flowering (where i am now) and 3+3/10 worked fucking horribly for me, much much worse than GHE's normal Mic/Gro/Blo feeding schedule. Two plants literally shriveled up and died and yield was reduced by 30%.
Anyways my plants seem really happy with GHE 6/9, no defs or anything

first try coco wtf???
first try coco wtf???
I'm trying my first run at coco it looks like i'm doing something wrong.
Strains are double dream, purple dawg, and platinum bubba kush
Light 1k hps top feed with sprayers dtw, Ph 5.8 rh 40, temp 70-74
Cutting edge nutes with royal gold coco.
Water is 50-50 tap/ro 125 ppm before adding nutes. Bag said ph stable pre rinsed, i ran some RO through a little pot to see how high the ppm was it was 450 didn't seem to bad. My problem is first i ran full strength on nutes..... why i have no idea i have grown enough to know i shouldn't have done that. Donkey at the hydro shop said that's what he's doing. Guess i'm the donkey
So tonight i added 5 gals of ro to my 30 gal mixed rez, to dilute the nutes dropped my ppm from 1050 to 750... Never used cutting edge before always used Gh anyways, my tress mostly all have nute burns on the edge of leafs, but the PBK have curl almost wilt look to them. I have no pics sorry only have camera phone will try to post tomorrow. Also rez is cloudy and i have only had these goin for 3 days. I'm sure i left something out, oh yea watering 1x a day with runoff, i was gonna just get roots going then switch to recirculate, i'm short on time no ac in my room so it's shut down for the summer.
If i can't make something happen soon gonna go back to my norm just wanted to see if i'm missinng something, i know some peeps will say i should of rinsed, not feed full strength etc... anything else i'm missing, also probly go back to Gh if i end up switching to hydros
peace

Great info here..I enjoyed reading most of it. I haven't seen h3ad here lately but much thanks. Formulas working GREAT So far. I had an off topic question hopfully someone can answer for me tho..my rh is steady at 22% won't change for nothin day or nite. I've read in a couple threads its ok in flower but should be 40 to 50 in veg. I mist them several times a day for moisture and it'll go up to 30ish..should I be worried about this. I'm using a 400w mh for veg. Blockhead/pck strain in coco hempys.
