Coco is an inert medium that holds no nutrition of its own, which hands you complete control over your plants' intake but means every element has to come from the tank.

A dedicated two-part coco feed keeps calcium, magnesium and potassium in sensible proportion for the medium, so uptake stays even and roots work through the whole pot rather than just the wet zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlways equal parts:\u003c\/strong\u003e use the same volume of \u003cstrong\u003eCocos A\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eCocos B\u003c\/strong\u003e at the rate given on the label.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdd separately:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eA\u003c\/strong\u003e into the water first, stir, then \u003cstrong\u003eB\u003c\/strong\u003e - never mix the two concentrates directly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeedlings and cuttings:\u003c\/strong\u003e start at \u003cstrong\u003ehalf the label rate\u003c\/strong\u003e and build up as the root system develops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth and flowering:\u003c\/strong\u003e feed at every watering, adjusting strength to the stage and plant size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e mix the full solution first, then adjust to \u003cstrong\u003e5.5-6.2\u003c\/strong\u003e, the working range for coco.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousekeeping:\u003c\/strong\u003e shake before use and mix fresh rather than leaving solution standing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hcs-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-part mineral base nutrient\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cocos A and Cocos B, used in equal parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buffered coco peat and coco fibre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStages:\u003c\/strong\u003e Growth and flowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorking pH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5-6.2 in coco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDosage:\u003c\/strong\u003e As stated on the product label, A and B in equal measure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Plagron","offers":[{"title":"1L","offer_id":53445687181578,"sku":null,"price":13.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5L","offer_id":53445687214346,"sku":null,"price":44.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10L","offer_id":53445687247114,"sku":null,"price":79.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0748\/7127\/5786\/files\/plagron-cocos-a-b-1.png?v=1785337984","url":"https:\/\/hydrocropshop.co.uk\/products\/plagron-cocos-a-b","provider":"Hydro Crop Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
