Hi everyone new on RIU I liked the vibe of this site . I just started growing again after stopping a decade ago.
I used to grow in full hydroponics with clay under some 600w lights used clones, I was fairly decent at it. This time I’m using a coco perlite medium, growing auto’s and using lec 315w globes. I have killed a couple of seedlings, I think they were over watered the coco coir I used was in a brick and had to rehydrate with water then put seeds in coco was still very wet was this my undoing??? Any advice would be appreciated btw put seeds in 6 gallon pots

How to Grow With Coco Coir
1.Till coco coir dust into the soil with a hoe to a depth of 6 inches. This is the same way you would use peat moss.
2.Sow seeds into the tilled earth, according to the directions on the packet. Cover the seeds with the soil.
3.Water the area lightly with a watering can. Allow the water to soak into the tilled soil so that the coco coir can absorb the moisture.
4.Sprinkle coir pith fibers evenly across the soil as a mulch.
5.Check the soil's pH periodically with a pH meter. Coir is naturally at a slightly acidic level, with a pH between 5.5 and 6.8. Amend the soil as needed if the pH level is not correct for your plants.
Things You Will Need
Gardening hoe
Hand spade
Watering can
pH meter
Tips
1.Coco coir also adds potash into the soil when tilled into the earth. You may need to change how you fertilize because the coir will help the soil maintain a higher level of potassium.
2.Coir's natural strength makes it slow to decompose. You should not need to till the soil too often to add more coir as you would with peat moss. Coir pith mulch may need to be replaced occasionally due to weathering and loss from winds.
3.Warning
Purchase coco coir from a reputable source. Harmful chlorides in poorly developed coir supplies can damage your plants rather than help them.
