Same thing applies. Too much bloom nutes = an unbalanced or excess amount of K in your solution and this causes problems. Burn or lock out of other nutrients ie Ca,Mg and N specifically that are antagonized by the excess K.
mre thead jack. Walt you are spurring thinking. Stop that.@hippy71
"The basic" is; it's all about coco's cation exchange and double vs single positive ions. So when Ca or Mg molecules attach to coco and being that they both are double positive ++ charged ions the coco releases 2 K or Na molecules as they are single positive +. The end result is you end up with an unbalanced amount of K in solution and this causes problems. Burn or lock out of other nutrients ie Ca,Mg and N specifically that are antagonized by the excess K. Hope this helps
I have not as yet used Coco as a principal component of my mix. I use it in a 20-30% range and nothing. I do see a good deal of mention of this problem and have been thinking on it as I am starting a couple of Autopots and they are pure coco. I think Calcium Phosphate (liquid bonemeal) could be a good starting point. But I would like to hear from others on that.
congratz to all South Africans.who can now sit in their own home and smoke a plant they grew in their own home,without fear of their front door being kicked in and carted off to jail.
the world is a slightly better place.
