Looking to start my second grow ever in coco instead of soil this time, but not sure which brand to buy?

I am using Botanicare PBP nutrient line, growing GSC auto and Fastberry auto.

I heard roots organics soiless coco mix is a good choice? Any other opinions?

did you want to get coco bricks or ready to use bagged coco?

i've used both, but have had a whole lot easier time throughout the cycle using bagged coco that's already buffered. using gorilla boost right now, cut with some chunky perlite. works great, haven't found the need to adjust ph since using it. using megacrop nutrients so it could be either one, but i do say this is the healthiest plant so far. need to get a camera, my cellphone doesn't even have one cuz i'm too damn cheap to upgrade. hahahaha

also, since using boost, i haven't had a calcium or magnesium deficiency at all, no def's so far, fingers crossed. already past a critical point in flower and not one yellow or overly green, no claw, no burnt tips. i'm actually amazed how well a low ppm can actually go when the environment is in check. i gotta thank this site, i'd be a black thumb still if it weren't for some solid advice i received here. so i'm always thankful and willing to pass it along. hope you get your answers here.

I recommend canna coco. No need to wash it out before use. The bricks are cheaper but seem like they would be a pain in the ass to prepare to use.
