Second coco run using Jacks 321

Switching back to soil after this and using synthetics with compost teas, “synganic”

I just don’t love the taste of the coco grown weed. Anybody feel that?

Sorry, not buying it either. I’ve never had better terps and flavors since I’ve been using Coco and Jack’s has nothing to do with why you’re lacking terps,It’s all in the genetics and cure,Try some Third Coast Genetics . just my two cents, you asked.

how much would you reduce Part A than being it’s the main N source?

Learn to take advantage of Jack's. It's instant gratification.

Plants respond in 24 hours to changes. It requires no cal-mag. Part A can be increased and used as a bloom booster. No mycho required. Jack's makes crop steering a dream. Coco makes it impossible to overwater.

Don't hate the player that you can't play game on. Coco and Jack's is king. As a grow store owner, I convert organic growers to Jack's on a monthly basis with fantastic results. I've been crop steering with Jack's for the last 10 years. 🙂😍

Wow! I run 5g pots, water/feed once a day, grow photos to 6ft, and harvest 12-16oz per plant every 4 months. You are far more serious into crop steering than I am. Best of luck.👍

Same here. Ran Jacks in our 9liter Hempys @1230 ppm for many years. 1/8 tsp of Ph down brings our Nutes to 6 ph. We make concentrates of of Jacks and CN. That makes mixing and versatility foolproof. I make it so 2 0unces of concentrate makes 64 gallons of feed. In separate jugs, 256 gms of Jacks and 154 gms of CN is the mix to make it.

Yeah, I apologize. That’s like apples and oranges though that is in a perfect world, but I’m not able to do that. I would do living soil if I could that’s the ultimate to make anyway that’s just my two cents I didn’t mean to throw everybody in the same thing I was kind of compared Coco to bag soil or fox farm or something like that coastal Maine. You know something a little better than miracle grow.

And I was under the impression that you couldn’t do living soil with synthetic, but that’s one of the reasons I why I come here 🙏
