i don't think very many people on this forum are using coco. canna coco is good, but i don't see the point in paying that much for it, i get bricks of general hydro coco for a bunch cheaper around here. and when i used canna coco i saw no difference in growth or yield. i have not tried canna nutrients yet simply because of the price tag, but i hear good things, wait scratch that, great things!
I just got my Cana coco substrate and full nutrient line in the mail I will probably start a thread on the grow. This will be my first indoor hydro grow, so I don't have much to compare to.
I used there veg and bloom products. Great but you can get cheap 20-20-20 stuff for veg and just use the cana bloom.
I use Canna Aqua Vegga/Flores A+B. I've absolutely nothing bad to say about Canna nutrients. Very simple to use, comes in 2 parts, add equal parts of A and B, and Bobs your uncle and fannys your annt. I change out my nutrient solution every fortnight, i've never had nute burn or nute deficiency. Add PK 13/14 three weeks before harvest. Very good for beginners. I would recomment it.
I use Canna Aqua Vegga/Flores A+B. With great results, a little nute burn at first as they were started off on 3/4 mix, So I reduced again to EC 1.7 - Now into 4 week flowering & EC of 2.2 with no nute burn. I have two tanks 70-80ltr W8 between the two they drink over 100ltr per week, I change hydro mix every 2-3 wks, & just top them up daily as needed. Best of luck OPENSKY..
Thanks! Opensky and fitzyno1 what hydro method do you use. I was thinking of DWC, but did not know what size net pot to use. What methods have the two of you been using?
I'm using Canna Flora ( ph 5.2) (EC 2.1) (RH 60) (Temp 21.8c day. 19-20c Night) Co2 tabs & h2O2 in the drip system 2 x wilma 8's 70 ltr each. They come with 11ltr pots. Im using rockwool & clay pebbles. The growth is Phenomenal, I have a mixed batch Shamans are already 1.80m - after 4 wks flowering White widdows 1.40m Stunning Plants Cali Orange are the biggest 2.0m, My grow areas are 1.20x1.20x2m & for the biggies 1.65 x 1.65 x 2.6m high. I also have 8 white widdow clones which are 30 cm high in a kitty litter box & 8 Euforias which are 70cm & only 6wks old What are you growing? Best Opensky
I'm doing DWC (8x 5 gallon pods). Very simple, i'm sure you know the ins and outs. I'm keeping my pH around 5.8 and humidity around 50%. My tap water is around 7pH. When i add my nutes and H2O2 my pH will end up around pH6.2. Canna nutes have a pH buffer so you don't have to mess about with the pH too much. A little pH down and i'm stable at 5.8ph. Net pot size will depend on what size you are going to grow your plant. Mine are 5" (125mm) net pot, i grow my plants from a 1000mm to 1400mm.
Thanks again guys! Waiting on my genetics, hoping they didn't get seized. The strains are Mazar and shnazzleberry. The space will be a DR-40 grow tent, so the height will need to be limited. Currently working out the details of size of the res. Once I know how tall my res will be, then I know how tall my planbts can be. Thanks again for the level of detail about your grows. I just need a couple of more supplies, mainly the seeds.
