I have done a few cycles now with coco, this most recent round had a pretty bad issue with root aphids, gives me the fucking willies thinkin about it. I thought about this earlier on the freeway and was just curious what other Soil to Coco growers have expierenced with these a-holes.
What I was wondering was, just enviroment wise for the RA..
Would coco be a more ideal enviroment for them to live? My guess is yes because of the dampness...but I am unsure.
And secondly, would Soil be better off due to the good predators that exists in ones soil and keep the RA's at bay..more or less.
And guys who have gone from soil to coco who have had aphid issue, has it arised more in soils or your coco?
Yes for sure I have RA and the winged mofos as well. Anyways, I hope I was clear enough. This is by no means a coco hate thread lol, i love the stuff more than anything I have used yet. I am just curious of the two mediums which one would thrive more. I know moisture is a big roll here, so I was leaning to coco...I dont know! Just never had them before ugh...
