Coco coir nutes.

[BapusO]

Thinking of changing from soil to coco coir growing medium. I just bought some liquid nutes from Fox Farm, Grow Big, Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom. I've seen all the recommendations for growing in coco but will these nutes work on coco as well as soil or will I have to buy all new nutes? It's an expense I could do without.

I use nutrafield range for coco myself.. i was going to swap to dwc and asked at my local hydro store. They have heard it works well with those ones (coco a and b) tbh i cant see an issue with using soil nutes in coco however calmag will be needed i believe.

hopefully someone with experence will voice their thoughts

what works in dirt usually works in coco but in coco you have to add all your nute even the ones that dont get used all that often ,you will need a chelated cal mag, and ageoldorganics.com sells a macro nute solution that gives you all the little stuff like boron, iron ect .but if you find a total nute package that you like use it
