Looks awesome man if you don't mind me asking where did ya get it I'm thinking of trying coco for my next grow
 
i am back in dirt ((actually not growing at all right now.)but coco is sooo easy and the results are fantastic. fast, potent and sweet...
starting seedlings takes practice to get right, but once they are going they go and there is NOTHING better to clone in than coco, imo. it is all i clone in now and have never had a properly taken clone not root in it. just plain coco, dampen it, stick in clone and leave it alone...10 day or so and it is rooted and can be transplanted to hydro or dirt(easy to do and works out fine) or left in coco. when they start veg stage just bring down the ph to like 5.3 for feeding and it will rise on it's own as coco raises ph naturally...some nutrients can only be delivered to the plants in coco below 5.6 and some only above 5.6 ph while in coco...so taking it to rise on it's own, gives the plant the range it needs to get all it needs. and if at every watering and feeding you have a run off of 20% of what you poured into it, you do not have to flush the coco medium every few weeks or so as is recommended otherwise. this is just the system that worked for me with great results while growing in coco. good luck with your grow and finding what works for you and your plants...hope this helped.
