I always use Greenterra Peat Moss (no washing required).

Usually peat moss + bagsoil + perlite (40+40+20) mix works well for me.

And I reuse the mix for the next generation of plants just adding a few extra handfuls of bagsoil.

Thanks.

It's another of the Latvian peat products, the other big one being Hortimed:

I had no idea the Latvians were so into their Peat!

I buy local ag roadside shops here in Korat. The bag picture goes for Bt. 100-150. Needs to bee rinsed and treated.

All coir should have it's leachate tested before use no mater what the seller says.

This place does sale coir /pieces in 5 sizes. The #1 is more expensive.

80 and 200L. bags, also Big Bag(4'x4'x4'), not for the Shopee type buyer.

I add a scoop of WESCO 0-52-34 occasionally during flower.

All the cannabis aimed nutrients are a complete rip-off.

It's just a plant, same as any other plant.

Nothing special or expensive required.

 

My plants look happy enough!

Totally untrue statement, it's about getting most optimal balance of all nutrients, in the right stages. The more expensive cannabis ones basically make this easy for a person who not want to calculate and mix things himself, that is a choice of the buyer.

 

The optimal usage make a huge difference in the end products smell, strength and taste, assuming the lights and climate etc are already optimal too.

You're completely right!

these things ground up like peat would be. looks feels and grows very similar to peat.

Do they just chop up the stalks? Could you do the same with hemp

stalks? 

Grow your pot in chopped pussy willows.

My potted plants and dessert

flowers are doing great with deep greens, more flowers with brilliant colors by adding 10 to 1 water to urine.  I quit buying any fertilizers years ago because it works better and is free.

 

Garden and farm channel utubers have been reporting great results too.  I have not tried it on maryjuana plants so can't report directly on that, but the concept is the same.  There is no unpleasant odor.  The plants seem to love it.

Might be worth doing so before posting about it in a cannabis forum...

OK, I just tested some new stuff, which does seem a little drier and looks a bit different than usual. 

 

Tap water was 108 PPM. I put about the same volume of coco in and left it for 10 minutes before giving it a stir.

With the coco was 424 PPM. This translates to 856 micro siemens/cm.

 

Is this acceptable? I guess it depends on what type of salt it is.

Can you change the setting on the meter to be EC?

[Marcous]

No, but I'm pretty sure that's 0.856 EC

 

0.856 mS/cm

Your meter shows "EC" between "TDC" and "pH", can't you use the "mode button" to switch to "EC"?

Usually you pour water through coir and catch the runoff to check the EC to see if you need more flushing.

As for Nute's EC, I'm running just a RCH under .890-EC with a Thai ST. and a FastBud Amnesia Zkittlez.

I'm using a grow and a bloom formula I got off RIU Forum.

This is the FB, the color of the pix "has been changed", the original is washed out with a very yellowish sunset color. I don't know if it's just the genetics, of if the bloom formula works good??

I use coco peat plus and perlite as my medium, It's about 500thb a 80L bag on Lazada. 

 

No need to wash or buffer.

 

I use Nutra Hydroponics nutrient range: https://nutrahydroponics.com/

 

Check on the Photos of my Grow thread for my results using this combination.

That's great, what do you think about nutra hydroponics?
Sorry I didn't get it, where I can see the picts?

They are the best and cheapest quality nutrients available imo.

 

Check on their website they have pics of the bottles.

Wesco 30-20-10+TE works fine. 

About 150bht (lazada) for a 1kg bag that lasts over 1 year for 6-10 large plants. 

I can back up BMT by saying I've started using his advice with coco/perlite and the Wesco 30-20-10 for veg and Wesco 0-52-34 for flower. My 1st grow with this I got 62 grams from a blueberry auto and 2nd crop og 72 grams from a GSC auto. I also added 5ml cal-mag each feeding. Kept ppms 1000-1300 most of the time. Worked a treat for me.Simple and very effective.
