I completely redesigned my 4x8 foot tent, and somewhere along the way I decided I wanted to try coco for the first time
So in the left bed we have the original franco mom, she's at nearly 6 weeks from seed I think
I rooted 4 cuttings from her, 2 went in the other soil bed and 2 went into 2 gallon air pots

The coco clones are already stomping the soil, they recovered much quicker with more frequent feedings. It's the first time I've seen yellow clone leaves turn back green again
Me likey already
I'll start with the coco setup
Medium- brick coco that I got for free
Rinsed well and strained under hot tap water to remove potential salts and the powdery coco. Turned out really nice
Buffered twice 8 hours each time in bucket of cal-mag water, 1.2 EC
Mixed with 20% perlite so I can water more frequently and rinsed until runoff was around .4 EC
Planted clones and watered again with .4, ph 6.2
Feeds are now at 1.0 EC, ph 6.2 once per day and they're taking off. Gonna lower EC to .7 and back off to once every other day though. I want these roots to start branching out
In flower I'm hoping for these to be very rooted so I can feed multiple times per day
like 4-5 at peak flowerTimer hooked to 150gph pump and ran to 2 hydro halos
2 air stones in the reservoir, water stays around 75 F without frozen water bottles
Nutrients- general hydroponics flora series
Micro, grow and bloom. No boosters this time
Using cal-mag obviously and humic acid also. Adding silica next res change which is tonight
UC Roots- this is meant to keep the res sterile, smells like bleach
Once they get big enough to justify it, there's a 300-600 watt mh/hps up above that'll be turned on
Soil setup- coots mix that I've been using
Mainly water only so far, the right bed won't be a proper scrog like the left. Hoping to have enough time to top each plant once and let them go
I'll be flipping to flower when the single franco is about 75% full
Extraction- 8 inch vivosun inline fan/filter
Other strains- the right bed has 2 franco clones in the back, barney's triple cheese in the middle, a feminised gelato seed front left and "eleven roses" front right
Other lights- custom 3x3 foot aluminum frame with 5 invisible sun ish120 boards
Also 4 ebay sun boards at 2700k saved for flower
Altogether around 500 watts maxed out
Also using a 660 watt (dimmable) dominator 2xxl from lush lighting

I found this thing for 1/4 of original price online, sent it in to get fixed and they repaired for pretty cheap even though it was way out of warranty
Great light though. Super bright, also has ir and far red/uv sprectum diodes
