Do I need to buffer Plagron Coco coir?
NonameGrowDude
started grow question 2y ago
I never used this brand before so was wondering if any one has experience with Plagron Cocos Premium. Do I need to buffer it with cal/mag before use or can I use it directly from the bag?

I would. I usually use Canna but also plagron and the plagron did at every transplant cause a mg Def. To be safe I'd say yes

Did I need to size up to larger rockwool cubes?
Geminated seeds in 1x1x1 rockwool cubes. End state is to be in 5 gallon buckets with 8" net pot and clay pebbles. I figured the roots are too small to reach all the way into water solution still so put small cubes into 4x4x4 rockwool. Did I need to use larger cubes?

Spider Farmer driver failure. LED HELP. Should've went HLG.
Ok this is hard. Sf 4000 driver failure & idk what I did lol. Plugged into extensions and a surge protector but aside from flipping a fuse every once in awhile this came out of nowhere. Any help would be great or even just where to start. Already checked connections.

slowly drying soil VS transplanting autoflower (Day22)
bad idea to transplant my autoflowers (day 22, entering preflower) now that I’ve realized the substrate (Biobizz Lightmix) is too compacted and takes 6–8 days to dry? What else can I do? I know transplanting causes stress, but isn’t slow-drying soil an even bigger problem? thanks

Good quality soil for second grow?
I’m looking for a good quality soil for my second run of plants for when I transplant. I used miracle grow organic potting mix for my first run but was told without the person knowing the brand it was trash just from the looks of it. Dont want to make that mistake again.

Anyone who uses fox farms happy frog? Transplanting 3 week seedlings
Transplanting in to fox farms happy frog. First time using this soil, anyone who has experience with it and tips for successful transplant would be much appreciated. Heard ocean forest is “pretty hot soil” and not to use nutes for a few weeks, seeing if this is similar

Soil recommendation? Typically use Fox Farms Happy Frog but price keeps going up and quality seems much lower, lots of sticks, not mixed well etc
Is there any soil recommendations anyone can make that are good but a less pricey? Dont get me wrong, I love Fox Farm’s, and 38/bag isnt terrible. I’m just curious if anyone has found a more mainstream soil that’s as good of soil. I also think their quality has been worse lately
