in an article in a spanish cannabis magazine (Yerba nr 66) there is a guide to coco growing - and frankly - (it sucks and is basicly like soil growing ) - very simplyfied.

basicly this guide says for flowering use 3ml/ 1L of A+B all thru flowering untill flush - and also it recomends the use of ZINC (!?) every 3-4 waterings (my personal guess is this dude waters by hand and does it every few days when the pot seems dry).

well im open to new things as allways - but im perplexed - WHY would u water with ZINC??

i mean im not thinking of trying it or anything - just wonder what really lays behind it.

the author (don esqueje) claims ZINC is some kind of miracle mineral solving and flushing out accumulated salts.

??

Doess canna have zinc in it? I know GH doesn't...

....I do know that zink can be beneficial for flushing toxines and radioactive waste out of the body....

Iæm gonna have to check my books or ask one of my professors about it.

I looked around, and you can purchase zinc by itself. But I had no idea it can be used for flushing....which is something I was already thinking about. Does it mention the ratio needed for flushing?

CNS17 has zinc in it...but I'm not about the other coco nutes.

im sure complete coco nutes have ALL micro nutes necesary - but the point WAS/IS:

how would it work flushing the coco with it ?! i got curious.

peace

hm... this is an interesting one, is the link in spanish only? never heard about this before....we need info, lol.

i can scan the article but it doesnt go into depth at all (very typical huh) and leaves me wondering how it works. its mentioned zinc should clean the salts but i have no clue how that wouldwork - neither have i found anything on the net backing it up.

the article spanish - don esqueje is aparantly owner of a growshop called don esqueje.

the Zinc mystery... hehe

something to wonder about
