Alright. Somebody convince me why running coco is better than soil. I might wanna try it.
granted this is my second try at coco (the first one didn't go well many years ago mostly b/c of me) but you treat it like hydro, not dirt.

seems to like DTW which means no pH or EC issues.

I've never ran anything other than soil. I use organic/dry amends. If I ran coco I'd try synthetics to compliment the medium better.
Both will get you to the finish line. Just like organic and synthetics will too. I've "heard" better yields and dry backs but I prefer how often I water in soil since I do it by hand from home.

I can't believe you are thinking of trying Coco Coir. I love growing in coco. I definitely get a faster growth rate plus I have noticed an increase in yield. Also I think it produces a smoother smoke, but that is my opinion. If you decide to try it I think you will kill it. You are a much more skilled grower than a hack like me.

I was picking up some soil today to get my clones transplanted and I saw a pallet of Bushwacker Coco Coir.. and it got me to wondering.. anyways, I stabbed the bag, and got a 6.1 reading, so it sounds like a good starting ph. I bring my Apera when picking out bags.... so inconstant from one bag to the other. I stabbed several FFOF and all were low 5's.
