yeah they do, shit smells like berry wine, no wonder they dig it...

Anyone try this coco before, this is the first time i've tried something other than a compressed brick in at least 3 years. I like how its already broken up and flushed, well I think. For $35 a bag it better be ready to use out the bag.

CDM, hahaha I didn't even notice that til you mentioned it...funny thing most people wouldn't think I do is work out. Its weird ever since High school sports I was forced to work out, then it kind of just starting becoming a routine thru college. Now a days I still wake up in the morning and work out 3-4 times a week, light weight more reps. I ain't strong or big I just like being able to stay limber and flexible.

PP, thanks dude.

NEG978, those gals are in 1gal grow bags, wouldn't really recommend them for these style of plants but hell I'll make due. I like how their is still plenty of variety in those F2's, should be fun looking thru them the next few years.

Otto I use this coco called "Gold Label" it comes in a bag flushed already and it's roughly the same price.Tacoma introduced me to it and I'll never go back to the bricks.I have incredibly good luck with it.I just bought a pallet, 60 bags, @$25 a piece.I started out buying 15 at a time and my friends kept coming over and taking a bag here and a bag there So I bought a pallet and I'm hiding it! No, not really but it's incredible coco and worth every cent, I imagine you'll have the same results...on another note I have 10 Golden Goat X's up through the cubes, maybe more when I open up shortly.:woohoo:
@NE, lovely Cherryjuana, geez!:)

@ SlipKid: Gold Label is the Shit. My,hydro store is out of it so I need to,find more of it. I had to go back to the GH bricks until more comes in from,the Holland warehouse over to Peabody. Just works fucking wonders and the the ladies love it.

@ Ottoman: Def try out that gold label that stuff is the balls.

Slip and Neg, so i've lied and realized it a little while ago....I have used other coco I believe its that the stuff that comes from Arcata, Cali, royal gold? If so the hydro guy kept insisting I use it a few months back. He thought it was better and also had to make special orders to get the bricks because he didn't stock them. I finally gave in and told him I buy a bag, he then said great and gave me 2 more bags for free and free swag. I have to admit I like not having to break anything up, but other than that I didn't see any difference between compressed and non. They were ran side by side my last harvest I had of pk, bb, and d. Not trying to say ones better then the other, but what have you guys noticed that makes you go back to the pricey stuff. I can't see myself paying $25-35 a bag of coco when I can do a little work and get that for half the price. If you can't tell I am a cheap ass:biggrin:.


got some plants that been pumping way more iron then myself
#1, this plant just kind of takes her time and moves along whenever, its annoying to watch the d blowing up and this thing be only half done. Nevertheless she'll always have a home with me.

Otto,

Bags of Botanicare Cocogro are usually around $20. I tried some Gold Label or Royal Gold once. The bag was black and gold. I did not have good luck with it. The plants in that coco got yellow and did not look near as good as the ladies in used coco. I think it was just because it was brand new coco. One thing I use that really gets things crankin is tea. I brew it up for dwc and coco.

2 gallons ro water
2 handfuls Ancient Forest
1tsp mycogrow soluble
1tbsp mollasses
Aerate for 48 hours and serve!

I have expensive taste!:) No honestly the Gold Label comes from Holland and I've just had great luck with it.I've done well with the bricks too but those bags of Gold Label do a great job for me...The botanicare bags were great too, it all depends on your water etc and other unconsidered factors, your plants look great, Chems plants look great, Hl's plants looks great,NE's plants look great, I think mine are KICKING ASS!!:tiphat:No but seriously I'm not selling anything, it's a mans world!:) I will admit and I'm sorry but it's true, I never look at the price of anything, I pile it up and ask for the bill...I lose qp's so a few dollars, meh!! I found damme near a pound cleaning up today, I was wondering where that shit went!!

Geez Tacoma I wish you were here when I found that lb!! I still have it of course.I told the town to go find a "caregiver who cared" I still have a whole room of hanging, untrimmed beasts, I'll start trimming today and I'll save it for you guys.I've been crushing up a half lb of sour d plucking seeds so I have all that chuff too, the crushed buds are strong, the seeded plants went 90 days...I just want to announce I'm officially an old timer, I started taking cream in my coffee 5 days ago, I guess it's downhill from here...:tumbleweed:

Cream in your coffee and nuts lower than your dick, I better enjoy my youth. Although if being old means you find qp's of bud lying around and not worrying about what you spend well, that don't sound like a bad deal either...
