Yeah it takes trail and error. If you can't return it I say use what you have.

your results look great bro! are u using pure coco?

Flash63 · Mar 9, 2015

just curious, have you used other nutes with coco or was their a reason for choosing H&G?

Flash63 · Mar 9, 2015

Yes i used the full canna line before H&G,i have had better results with H&G...i mix r/o and tap water @ 75/25 ratio as my tap is very hard e.c.1.2 .I do not add cal/ mag as the municipal water is full of it.

Sorry i did not answer your question about H&G,i worked in hydro shop and the sales rep gave me a sample pack back in 2009 i believe.i found the quality the same,but my yields are through the roof.

thats awesome. As for the r/o and tap water, do you let the water sit out to get rid of the chlorine in it?

Flash63 · Mar 9, 2015

Yes i do

gotcha, i was thinking about hooking up a reservoir with a drip system also. Are you using a res or hand watering?

Flash63 · Mar 9, 2015

I hand water DTW,i run multiple varieties @ the same time,i have them in 4x8 flood tables so do not worry about my effluent..

nice. I appreciate all the info bro. I think i feel comfortable to start putting my orders in! the only thing ill be doing different is using a res only because I'm using 16 30 gal pots and it seems like that might be a lot to hand mix each batch

I think you would enjoy hooking up the drip lines. I used to run units similar to hydro halos but I now run open 1/4" drip lines.

I've noticed that people install air stones in their reservoir. is that necessary?

Lots of my grows are in coco, and here we some suggestions:
Those ppm's look good, if your meter uses a .7 conversion ;-)

Ditch the AN bigbud.
Pick up some calmag plus.
Water with nute solution every time until roughly 20% runoff has been achieved.

I personally don't use one.
