Sunshine Advanced #4....Coco or mostly Peat?

[Caravaggio]

Been using this for awhile and have to be honest, ive had some good grows but im VERY disappointed in how much water it holds. I think they put more Peat into these mixes than they tell us.

I even added 30% more coarse perlite!

I would like a coco that I can water daily, something I can put on my automatic watering from my 1/4 line and feed each for maybe 60 seconds each day and have it dry out within 24hrs.

Thoughts?

Ready-gro from Botanicare might be what your looking for.
I water my moms once a day - no problem. Plus it's ready to go out of the bag.
They have a moisture and an aeration formula. The aeration just has more perlite in it.

Ready Grow may be what you're looking for, but container size and plant size will be important factors in what you want. Coco with about 20% perlite could work well. Good luck. -granger

it is definitely more peat than coco. read the ingredients, they list things in order from largest to smallest %
