You have some very in-depth questions that maybe different for every nute brand you buy but in general microbes live for up to two weeks. As for the speed at which nutes break down I’m not sure as it would depend on a lot of factors and exactly what you are asking for me to answer. So in my humble opinion you could cut back the microbe use to once a week with out having any adverse affects

1. There's a reason non soil media are called inert media (this includes coco), because they hold no beneficial microbe, it does not compost, so it can not support any microbiology. Microbes feed on organic matter, which is what soil is.
2. Yes you are supposed to do feed each watering, with the appropriate EC/PPM level according to your plant current age/development stage.
3. Always get 20% to 30% run off, this is in order to prevent salts from accumulating in the coco.
4. There are supposed to be organic nutes for coco. I dont really know how they work.

I'd like to know more on this also I'm doing organic on my next grow the one in Coco i will be feeding the same as with none organic nutes so i will be feeding every day aiming for 30% runoff i should imagine they would break down quicker with being organic will be good go to find out more

Anyone experienced leaf burn from a high intensity LED? I think that's what has happened to a few of the plants and I hope I caught it in time but the yellowing leaves don't seem to be getting any greener. They are starting to get a few random rust/dark spots on affected leavesWeek 8

I have a cool mist humidifier in my tent, using RO water. Two of my plants that are close to the humidifier have started to get leaves with rust colored spots and yellowing. The left two are fine. Any ideas? The only difference is the mist may have been spraying on the first two.Week 3

So, tiny rust spots on upper fan leaves (please see pic above-week 8). Is this a Calcium/Magnesium issue or something else? I’ve been weaning these ladies off the CalMag over the past 2 weeks and then this showed up. It’s also been very cold in my tent so I’m not sure. Anyone? 😱Week 8

No matter how much PH down is added, my water naturally skyrockets back to a 6.4-6.5 because of the reused hydroton (regret reusing it)
Should I let the water stay where it is, or should I continue to add more PH down every day? (I think this is damaging my leaves.)Week 3

In the middle of the picture from day 25 there is something weird going on with the new growth (next picture is more detailed). One side is growing really slow, the other looks like it never grew/was eten/something. It is kind of brown/red-ish. Is this a deficiency or windburn?Week 4

I am not sure what’s going on with plant A (pictures above). Does this look like a CalMag deficiency? The CalMag at 5mls per gallon seems to be working but I’d love to know what some of you other growers think? Thank you for reading this post and thanks for any advice given. 🙏Week 4
