I think cana coco is very good coco........ I use a ph range of 5.5 to 6.2 with my coco grow mostly........ depending on how fine the coco is you may need to add perlite to it so your plants don't stay to wet to long. I use chipped coco mostly now in stead of the fine ground coco....... I think coco is the easiest medium to grow cannabis in....... getting the finer coco to drain well and not get to wet is about the only issues I've seen using coco......... I like it much better than rockwool.

All work the same like with rockwool, checking e and ph the same and drainage with libra baks ? How much in 24 hours one spike must give water with nutrients for one plant (can i use 2liter hour spike for plant with 4liter ventiel/hour) ??

Your going to have to experiment with it some in your system and setup....... based on my experience with coco I'd suggest you start with the lower flow spike. I fear you may experience overwatering issues.
 
hi Kailijs, sounds like someone might be from iceland or a scandinavian country?

i think the OP is referring to these coco mats

kailijs for coco you want to pre soak it with the correct feed and ph for what will be going into the coco, less feed for seedlings and smalls and more for the teens and adults.

coco should never dry out completely like soil, water lightly till roots get established then you can water as much as you like

you can only over water smaller plants that havent developed enough roots, once developed, you can not over water coco, you would have to have a drainage issue with the pots to overwater coco. its like saying youre gonna over water hydro:vap-Bong_smoker:

I think a constant drip into the coco slabs could cause some issues........ not the same as watering a plant in a pot once a day........ I have seen some to much water issues with using the brick coco coir even with bigger plants....... smart pots help some..........but yes the drainage properties for coco are awesome for growing mj........ takes some practice but once you figure it out........ easy peasy
 
somebody knows how much need to give water with dripers per plant dayly to didnt owerwater and didnt give less water ??????
 
how much water depends on several factors like temps humidity size of plants, strain and size of pots etc... the trick is to water just enough to keep it moist and airy enough for roots to pick up, at that time the plant will require full saturation of the slabs every watering and the frequency of the waterings will be determined by the factors that i mentioned. I recommend that the coco be flushed rigorously because it many times contains salt NaCl form, sometimes they even soak it in Calcium nitrate solution to precipitate the salt
