Did I say that ... ? . I'll be hanging around for the results mate. Try layering some peat moss along the bottom of your first cups, it will give the sprouts a constant source of nutrients when they get that far. This will eliminate the need for the peat moss which gives you mor room for perlite and maybe 10-15% guanos

The only thing he would need to buy would be the perlite and maybe the potting soil, but I don't even use that all that often. Recycle and reuse . Coco if improperly used can lead to gnats or aphids when mixed with some real organic additives. Either mix it all separately or go with a bag formula if considering the coco
