Going Coco with AN: pot size and FIM vs Apical.

hello there,

I have done 4 indoor crops in soil and now I changed to coco. I used Biobizz try pack and also added rootbastic and bloombastic to the process and got “decent results”.

I want heavier yields but I’m not able to do a hydro system, so the best option for me seems to be coco. So, I have some doubts that maybe you guys can help me with. First of all, the characteristics of my actual grow:

• 2.4 mt x 1.2 mt x 2 mt tent.
• Strain: Critical + (Dinafem), feminized.
• Number of plants: 20.
• Medium: coco (Cocomix Biobizz).
• Lights: 2 x 600 watts growbloom lights.
• Vents: 2 x 125 mm TT extractors, 2 x 125 intractor.
• Pot size: I’m in doubt here, as I have 11 lt pots and 7 lt pots. I read that with coco you can use smaller pots (7 lt in this case) and have the same results that you get with bigger pots. If I use 11 lt, will my plants grow too big for the space I have?
• Nutes: AN 3 Parts plus additives (voodoo, b-52, bud ignitor, bud candy, overdrive and planning to get Big Bud. Another doubt here: in my country we dont have the “Big Bud Coco”, only the plain Big Bud. Can I still use the non coco one and have good results? BTW, I chose the AN Nutes because of the PH Perfect Technology. Do I have to wait some minutes after mixing the nutes with water in order for the Ph to self-regulate? How do this work?
• Water: Planning to use tap water. My city’s tap water hardness is 250.

And well, the last doubt I have: i’d like to maximize my colas and yield. I used to do 2 o 3 apical cuts, but as i read I thought maybe I can get the same with FIM, but I have never done it before. It seems like with one cut I can have the same result that with 2 or 3 apical. What do u guys recommend? I want to get from 6-8 colas per plant.

I also want to try some lollipopping, but idk if this actually helps in getting bigger yields or not. Should I do this before going flowering?

I know its a lot of stuff to do for a newbie, but I’m a perseverant person and I want to achieve great results.

My prior crop I got some hermaphrodite plants and I think I committed the error of cutting low leaves and stems when flowering. Well, that or the strain wasnt good enough (i bought from a new seed bank). I hope dinafem goes well.

I’m open to learn and advice.

Greetings.

A friend uses 7-liter pots (nearly so, 2 US gallons) for coco; they are the optimum for density and handiness.

As for AN: overpriced "nutri-cosmetic" swill; you'd be rather better served with Gen Hydro 3-part along with their CaliMagic and a silicate supplement. That at pH 5.5-6.0 is a complete drain-to-waste nutrient, and very economical once you've dialed in the right TDS.

That’s what I would do. They won’t get one fucking penny from me.

Did you watch the video? That’s big mike, defending his partners actions and even saying he would leave him with his little girl. Yeah right, fuck that shit.

And what’s worse, AN has some how swept this under the rug and no one knows about it. I think this shit should be all over the news. I even canceled my high times subscription years ago when I found out. HT has an advanced ad every other page smh

LO-fucking L @ "try thcfarmer you wont get douchebags like gary"


The "Farm"? Home of the biggest thieves and scammers in the canna community.

But you wont hear about it over there. They bring down the ban hammer on anyone who would dare call attention to their thievery and seed swapping.


Have you a good time though..

Dont buy seeds from them then dont call out logic by name.
the community is way better than "I hope your plant gives you aids"
I'm in with the mods there they are old timers who dont take shit from fucking losers with no tact. like Gary.
