$150 !? I get it in 15# bags and it's not anywhere close to that. You know how much perlite it takes to make 15#........a whole freaking lot lol

Oh, lol. wait that shit is expensive online and all, but mine was also factoring in the reused coco, too. Regardless. I do not use perlite, and will not start. Happy you're happy with it. My newest batch of seedlings are vibing just fine in new coco.

Rootballs and stems into the garden, anything else goes into 30gal planters with a bag of manure in the spring.

They are both peat based. Basically a mix of sphagnum peat, dolomitic and calcitic lime, mycorrhizae, varying sized perlite and wetting agents. SM also contains some silica.

I was thinking of getting a big garbage pail and putting all the used PM/SM into the pail and letting nature flush the old stuff out over the course of a few months. So I don't have to let nature do it's own flush?

Nooo. I only use fresh for seedlings but why throw away hot soil? It grows plants. Nature flushing it out is more plants eating from the same trough. Are they eating leftovers? I like leftovers,

But, you have a different calendar than I do and you train for limited height, I think.

I reuse my Kings mix, I water to runoff every time so I figure there isn't much left in the soil. I haven't had any problems doing that yet. I'm not relying on it for nutes anyway.

"INGREDIENTS: 25-35% coco fiber, perlite, aged forest products, sphagnum peat moss, coco chips, fish bone meal, basalt, bat guano, dolomite (PH adjuster) feather meal, kelp meal, gypsum. "

Mine goes to my raised beds.

Be careful with the off gassing of salts. I'd stay out of the smoke plume

So, flush before burning?

I have to make my bleed valve taller. Ran my first full res today. Pump turned off after 15 seconds… water kept flowing.

That bleed valve needs to be higher than the highest level of water in your res.

Welp, guess I have to get another pvc fitting at the store. Lol. I already have threaded sprinkler risers so I just need one more 1/2"-3/4" adapter.
