Preparing coco coir bricks with tap water.

[Toker1]

You need to rinse and then soak in PH adjusted water.
Unless the coco is already ph balanced...then you don’t need to do a thing.

Rinse well with tap to remove salts,I use a smart pot to do this. Lol

Just what I need, Thanks!

veg solution i use:
Calcium 2.5 mmol/l = 100 ppm
Chloride: 0.2 mmol/l = 7.0 ppm
Magnesium: 1.5mmol/l = 36ppm
Elemental Sulphur 0.5 mmol/l = 16 ppm

Whats your goal? Your tap water is excellent to be used to wash coco.

So I'm about to prepare some coco coir bricks and I'm going to use tap water. End result should land around 60 liter of coco coir.

My tap water:

Calcium 50mg/L
Chloride 6mg/L
Magnesium 3mg/L
Sulfate, SO4 14mg/L
ppm 140
pH 8

Do I need to add any kind of nutes while re-hydrating the bricks? I have zero clue if my tap water is good or bad.
I plan on adding perlite to the mix.

For reference:
1 milligram / liter =
3.78541178 milligrams / US gallon
