I remember reading somewhere its like Perlite, Vermiculite or Peat Moss! Combine 2 of those for a nice medium. Cant remember where I seen it and those 3 are available at my loacal store.

Just setting up my first grow so need some help with medium...

Can you get coco at your local place?


I personally love coco with 20% perlite.

What you are talking about is a soiless mix.

Meaning void of nutrients. Or inert.

Coco IMO is great.

Convenience of soil but with the added benefit of being treated like hydro.

I'm pretty sure if u add all 3 it would be like a sunshine #4 or a pro mix hp. Which are awesome soiless mediums.
