Storing Coco Coir

mikerstarted grow question 6y ago

I have some leftover coco coir, and I mixed it up with some organic time release dry fertilizer. Can I store this and use it again in a few months? If yes, will I have to add in more nutrients next time?

As long as you close it up good and store in a cool dark place you’ll be fine and your nutrients that you mixed in should be fine as well! Definitely a few months I’d say up to six months no problem! Good luck 👍🍀

If there are both dry and well stored then you will be abble to use them in a few months without adding some more or just a few . Why dry nutrients you need to store them or your mix including them , away from the humidity , the light and the high températures.

Starting Nutrient Feeding Based on weekly comment: The cotyledons have dried up, is it good for me to start feeding nutes at 10% of the reccomended amounts this week? The soil is organic, and does contain nutes. I have doubts that the seedling has used much of it since the root system is still tiny.

I added mycorrhiza to the coco coir from a local store. It turned out that there is slow release fertilizers in it. Was not indicated on the packaging.Please Help! First time after watering with 5.7pH 400ppm drainage water was 6.7pH and 800ppm. I flushed her to 400ppm. Yesterday was the second watering (450ppm, 5.7pH) and drain was 700ppm 6.7pH. I flushed her to 460ppm (1.5l of water), but pH still 6.6 How to fix it?
