Soilless PH window specific peat/coco/perlite mix
Ok I need the nail in the coffin guys. I’m using Fafard Root Factory RF C8. Picture shows ingredients. What is my ideal PH window for this type of mix? I’m also about to transplant. I normally just fill a pot, sprinkle Dynomyco, drop plant, fill in and water. Is this correct?

I believe this to be mycorrhizae that was moving between pots I had touching and premoistened. Any second opinions? Doesnt look like mold. Puts off no spores when disturbed. Does not have that mold smell. Anyone else ever see this?

Maintaining the soil pH
I give pH'ed water, never more than 800ppm and I still always end up with lockouts. I used to not give water untill runoff but now I do. What to do after testing the runoff? It's currently at 6.0 even after a flush with 7.2. Ask many questions I need to know what I'm doing wrong.

Outdoor ideas
Quick question to any guerrilla growers: I have found an ideal location that’s good for light and hidden. But when I dig the soil down about 1ft water starts to appear, any ideas because I really don't want to have to give up the location because of it... Sawn off pots? Maybe

Coco or soil? For easiness and yield
Does growing in coco offer bigger yields than soil or vice versa? And has anyone had good results using biobizz with coco? I’m curious because I'm thinking about trying out an organic coco run.

Can you please tell me if the sides need to be covered with earth?
When I covered the soil in the beginning it wasn't like that, but after waterings the soil shrunk and now there is space between the pot fabric and the soil. Should I add more soil to avoid root problems? And also the water drains down there and quickly runs downhill 😞
