Not really answering your question but . . .

If you're not able to get a good reply on this site. I see that icmag.com has an actual forum for coco coir growers that is pretty active. Would definitely check that out if I was in your place.

if you are using an autopot, make sure you out abount an inch of perlite at the bottom of the pot.

Perlite helps drain and acts as a filter to the soil so it does not come out of the bottom. I also use root control fabric at the very bottom to prevent root clogs.

The autopot instuctions online call for the perlite at the bottom. In soil I am running 6.5 - 6.7 in the autpots. My pots are very small (I made my own autopot system w/ the smartvalve) so I keep my nutes pretty high. So far so good. I don't put my plants in the autopot system until they are about 2-3" tall or so and then they are moved into 2.4 liter pots in the autopot trays. I have 2 plants per valve.

i am going to coco for my next grow. It should be interesting.

I don't know anything about rockwool, but do use rapid rooter and transplant those into soil. Can't be much different.

One last thing, make sure your feed every day at 1/3 or 1/2 strength and work your way up. Also, put an airstone or pump or both in your reservoir to keep things circulated and aerated. I use both. Also, flush every 2-3 weeks to avoid salt buildup.

good luck!
