Indoor Coco coir with autos help!!!!

[bdc151redrum]

So I'm trying to decide if I should use Coco coir or soil I'm liking what I'm reading about Coco coir..... I'd like someone who has experience with Coco coir help me set up a feeding schedule with Humboldt nutrients master A&B, catilycx Magnum (Cal mag) and either the white Widow (by Humboldt nutrients benifical bacteria) or orca benifical bacteria, I also have ginormous and big up powder I would like to know the ends and outs of Coco coir ie when to water how much to water if it's even worth my time to do a 24 plant auto flower grow or not planning on using 7 gallon fabric pots and cyco (Coco coir mix) and get some plant saucers using my 8x8 tent and light movers with 2 Mars 1600 going about 18inches back and forth on the track with a 16 inch ocilating fan a 6 inch duct fan with a carbon filter inside and out and a ac unit going directly into the tent as my fresh air intake...... Who can help I'm not the best at feeding autos

If it was me I would go with the coco.

I did some tests with a 50/50 coco/perlite and it worked wonders. Definitely something I am doing again in the near future as soon as the Auto White Berry is finished actually.

My feeding is gonna be basic organic stuff. I would love to hydro nutes but not yet for me.

I know I'm not much help as to a reply to your question but hey, just sharing with what I have played with. Best of luck brother

I think I'm going to stick with some type of soil mixture I don't want to have to water everyday I use ro water I've been doing alot of research and it would be kinda hard to run 20-24 plants with that factor

You treat coco like hydro...ph @6..

I love coco. For me, watering daily really kept me involved with the plants every step of the way. I run micro grows so watering daily isn't an overwhelming task. The results of coco are amazing, strong fast growth after 2 weeks. The first 2 weeks I treat my coco like soil, Lightly watering than BOOM! They grow insane.

What's your feeding schedule looking like I found one for general hydroponic nutes for autos someone made

I am still a noob so take my info with a grain of salt. Feeding varies on the plants. I had one Grow that I was feeding 1500ppm towards the end. Another grow never went above 600ppm. I start feeding them as soon as I see the leaves lighten in color. From there I start at 300-400ppm. I will up the ppm by 50-100ppm every couple of days. If the leaves continue to lighten I increase, if they claw I will drop the ppm. It has been different every grow.

Another thing I do is check my runoff ppm and ph. If the run off ppm is higher than the feed I will back off some. If it is lower I will up the ppm. I read that this shows how much the plant is actually using. If the run off is higher the plant is being overfed and after some time a lockout is possible.
