Grow Mediums Canna Soil

[Jackson]

Howdy all

Anyone use this soil? I was told that it had no nutrients at all at to start feeding immediately

That is not soil it is coco! Get your terminology correct or you will get wrong answers. Stop looking for shortcuts and learn what you need to know to grow with coco!

Sorry to have misspoken.

Sorry to have misspoken.

I do not mean to sound harsh. You will have nothing but problems if you do not get a solid understanding of what you are doing with coco. You can have excellent results in coco if you do it right.

There is no sustitute for learning because it is way different than any other growing media.

Coco, from what I've read is a medium that needs to be treated almost like a hydro grow. It requires more Ph'ing and checking PPM runoffs and it will use more nutes.


It's not a soil or dirt. Made from coconut fibers, I bought some 2 yrs ago but never used it yet. I like soil, its the natural way to grow plants.

Thank you @Couch_Lock all I was asking if I need to feed immediately or wait. That was all

Good Morning All

Today I planted the ladies in Canna Coco (1st time using coco) Saturated the medium with 1 gram of MegaCrop and ml of cal mag as that’s what my research showed. @Fitzy @Dabber @Couch_Lock @MR magoo . You coco growers please chime in!

I've never used mega crop but I will say when I used coco I used a nute range of 175ppm to 250ppm it just depends on strain if known to be a heavy feeder or not liked coco but it dried out to fast for my stealth grow I even used organic dry nutes which worked well for me.

@Fitzy thank you for the feed back. My containers are still saturated and still waiting for the seeds to pop above coco. I keep reading that you have to water often. Not in my case.
