Great selection of gear. Welcome to afn bro. Best of luck to you

 

[Izzy180]

Thanks to everyone for the war welcome. Just got started. Germinated and planted but I'm was just reading something about using plain purified water with coco and it being bad. I did use Mephisto's super soil as directed. I also did not PH my water for the first initial soil watering. Any suggestions would be appreciated. @Discretepete2676 & @Ripper Also, I'm not sure where I should be posting question like this. Thanks guys

Feel free to post any questions you have izzy!
I'm not super strong in the Coco department. I know your supposed to PH and set the medium. How much did you water in and your using RO/distilled 0ppm water?
@budelee can you be of some Coco help my man?
I believe you need higher amounts of calmag in Coco due to the high Cation exchange capabilities (CEC) using purified water can strip the naturally occurring calmag and also potassium I believe....

I did not supplement with calmag. Figured it was to early for the seedling.

I put a gallon or so of store bought purified water into the soil (with super soil mix) before I planted the seeds. Nothing else. I do have cal mag among other starter nutrients.

Botanicare cal mag plus

Best kind in my opinion has never done me wrong.

The soil was still pretty moist last night. Should I add a gallon of PH'd water with small amount of cal mag? No sprout yet

I am not one of the "Pros" but if it has not sprouted yet in does not need anything in my opinion. The only thing I give is a Mycorrhizae supplement called Great White for the first week/10 days then you start with a low dose of nutes and calmag. I defiantly would not give anything until at least 7 days autos are sensitive
