this is 2.5 days in tupur in an almost properly tuned VPD room lol
hand watered once a day, 650ppm no co2. humidity is still a little low for my temps since im using a little shitty humidifier that runs out every few hours and im only there once a day. i average 84 degrees and 70+rh until it runs out then i drop to 60rh

if you cant find it there are a ton of things like it. just tell them you want a good aerated coco mix with perlite and stuff already in it. worst case you could just add perlite to your coco if you cant find it. they add a few more beneficial things in there but work with what you can get.

there is no magic bag. live by the VPD chart, warm and humid with LOTS of airflow and the plants will reward you.

Yes the VPD IS VERY IMPORTANT! Do you think 84 f and 70 rh creates the best roots?

i think right around that range is ideal for veg with proper airflow. they all go hand in hand and if one element is off it can mess things up a bit. some more than others.

Doing that, I have to feed 2 times a day, because the drink so much.

How much would you let it dry out in early veg? And what size pot or cup were you using?

What do you think the best N-P-K-CA-mg-s is for coco?

Have you ever used playgron?

Sorry I know o say I would post pictures but here is a picture of before and what the roots look like now

[Desert Hydro]

damn thats a huge difference. thays exactly what happened to mine. now mine are back on track after the bleach. you could also run 35% h2o2 if you are afraid of bleach. here are mine after getting them healthy again. these are with base nutes, calmag and a tiny amount of bleach in the res. i am now stopping the bleach in the feed res because i am reintroducing beneficial bacteria thats been brewed with kelp and molasses once a week or so.

blumats are known for producing mounds of roots outside of the grow media. mine will be there in a few weeks at this rate
