Growing with coco for the first time.

[jtcn1965]

Hi group. Thought I would try the coco coir for the first time. My question is hiw do I transfer my seedlings from soil to coco? I'm thinking of putting the soil in water to break down the soil so I don't mix it? Is this necessary or can some soil go in the coco? I have all my Optimum nutes I need for now I only need some distilled water to calibrate my PH meter. In the Optimum guide it says with coco you should habe your PH at 5.9, is this correct?

Thank you for any help you can give. This is the best group I've ever belonged to.

You can transplant a young plant in a little soil straight into coco without any problems whatsoever.

Coco and compost can mix together the same but like bag soil buy a good coco that been buffered washed of cal mag ions. If cheaper coco isnt it will uptake nuts from the plant and starve it.

Has anyone found bubblegum XL to be extremely sensitive to heat & light unlike its bubblegum non XL strain relative which didn’t have the same problems as shown

Only heat & light caused the stress on this XL anyone had same experience?

canna coco recommends ph 6.2 .coco is still a medium not hydroponics any where around 6.0 to 6.5 is good i guess

So far so good with my first experience with coco. Now going into the 3rd week of flowering and they are looking good.
