Hey, Im running out of nutrients and I need to get some more. Can anyone recommend nutrients good for an all perlite Hempy bucket? I also use fox farm ocean forest on occasion. Thanks.

OoOoOoOoOo weird. I can't even imagine growing in pure perlite. That just seems... wrong. To me. Haha.

I haven't started it yet so I can make it anything. Would coco through the middle and top, and only perlite at the bottom work better? I'll get some coco. I read a lot of bad things about vermiculite. Mainly that its messy.

Coco is a MUCH better medium. You definitely wouldn't hurt anything by adding a nice layer at the bottom with perlite though for drainage.

Full perlite hempy works great, doesn't require special nutrients. I ran GH Lucas formula.

It's better than coco imo, no weird CEC issues and has much better aeration.
