hey skunky i think they use hand heed hydro.cuz it would take lots of drippers to water a 65l pot.i maybe wrong. but i use 10 gal pots and drippers wont water it completely. so i hand feed. i treat coco just like they do rockwool. hope this helps.

Good to know man, so i guess this needs often watering, what frequency is it? would be interesting to try that tec if it doesn't needs too many daily watering

i've tryed coco with soil mixed 40%/60%

But didn't notice special differences so got back too soil ^^

100%coco can be nice too seen some nice grow, but i see that more as soil than hydro, no offense ;)

The medium used in the grow sessions is Rockwool flakes.

hi dust,

I grow similar to Green house. The pots I use are 52 liters.

I find Coco on its own too wet.

Rockwwol is a great medium, but i do not use it.

Instead I use a mixture of perlite and Flytocel, which is a synthetic material similar to rockwool, but it is biodegradable whereas rockwool is not.

take care mate

yes they use all rock wool cubes the small chunks made for useing just like soil... I have watched almost every grow video they have and in one of them he explains that his "hydro" is really rock wool cubes in pots like dirt with hand water.... and yes Technichly it is Hydroponics... hydroponics means all the nutriets are obtained from a mineral containing water solution.... instead of dirt... ie decomposition to make the micronutrients and so on.... hydro just means no dirt and the water has the mineral food in it instead of pulling it from the dirt.

if you search the forum for GHSC watering schedule that will be the answer to how often to water Iam pretty sure its a cycle of 2-3 waterings with plain water then 1 with nutrients... combined with regulary flushes with a light solution to help clear the salt build up.... my girlfriend could prolly explain it I have watched the movies so many times lol...

i have a question lil bit offtopic,

how often do you have to change the water itself going hydro? do you use the water/nutrients from the beginning til the end of flowering? or you change the water periodly?

and yeah,

in other videos they mentioned the rockwool thing + something i cant confirm,cause of bad spelling or lousy acoustic? dont know. and of course soil.

am i right when they compare hydro vs. soil. they gave no nutrients to the soil? only water? thats pretty mean. in it? :D

During flowering I like to flush 3-4 times, its a pain but better than losing plants to salt build up...and maybe its a mind thing but I always think my ladies look so fresh after a nice flush :> so I definitely use new fresh nutrients throughout flowering...

and I agree thats a little mean to the poor soil plant...she was probably so hungry :( but I bet her flavor was out of this world!

About us

Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
