Man I'd like to see the 12oz setup myself, I'm using 600w & coco I can easily believe it though, I average 2-3 oz per plant and I have 9 plants growing in my 3' x 3', in about a 6 week period I'll harvest 1 little over 16 oz (I'm in the middle of that now) with a plant being spit out every week or so.

I don't veg longer than two weeks normally, and I don't use any boosters or anything, or bottled nutes really (just with the stubborn ones), and I still get fat high quality buds and decent yields. I'm not trying to brag with that, just pointing out that I don't really try for maximum with coco and still get good numbers. If I were to try and improve the basics I use I'd probably see a good increase.

I don't think coco will outperform a bubble bucket (or most DWC systems) as far as size and yield - taste is a different story but performance wise I don't see coco winning a foot race between the two based on what I've seen, but Mechanibus is doing a side-by-side so perhaps he'll provide some good data LOL

I do think that coco can come close to matching a DWC in performance, and I think the other advantages of coco like ph forgiveness, overwatering tolerance, better heat handling, etc. will more than make up for the performance edge.

Canna is about the best in the coco world and they can be expensive if you follow their program rigorously, but the results are worth it IMO. They have a ton of material and support so I'm thinking it's a good move

Tell your bud to share some tips! I'd love to see how he's getting the big yields like that

thanks for the heads up ed. when i go and get the coco i will get his cocktail specifics and share it with all. question can i take plants i already rooted in hydro and switch them to coco???

Hell I don't see why not, there is amazingly little to no transplant shock with coco. I just transfered several the other night, one I had in a bad mix of coco so I broke up as much as I could off the roots with my hands, ran some water through the roots, and transplanted to fresh coco. Not even so much as a little droop

well i got really bored today so i decided to build a 2 gallon bubble bucket to accomidate the double diesel that keeps out growing her home so here are some pics. i moved the jack herer clone into it's spot in the 2 pot advanced vegger. so i guess this makes the 2 gallon the super advanced vegger
