Do I need to buffer Plagron Coco coir?
NonameGrowDudestarted 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

Hope this is ok to post, looking at having a go at hydro on my next grow mainly to cut down on maintenance. What are people’s thoughts on the two systems one is stranded bubble the other one has a dripper I’m guessing will help at beginning of the grow. Thoughts please 🤙

re-using soil worth it?Anyone with experience (give comparison growth, yield,...).... I use biobizz light mix. Normally, I only have to mix the soil with a bit of fresh soil and worm hummus to activate organic life again. And ofcourse break the old plant material with enzymes first and let it restSetup.

Is it better to adjust nutrition if using soil from a previous grow?One of my grows is nearing the end and is being flushed this week ready for the chop on Saturday. Do I need to adjust the feed schedule for the next grow to account for any residual nutrients in the soil from the last grow? I am using BioBizz Light-Mix soil & full BioBizz range.
