Canna Coco FTW!For years I have had really good luck using the Canna Coco as a seed starter for vegetables and now.....
I use it in the domed self-watering seed starters and if feeling compulsive, I would actually boil the Coco in a large pan on the stove. Let it dry in paper towels then fill the seed tray.
PH and add a very small bit of rhizo to the water and fill the bottom water tray.
Soak whatever seeds for a few hours in pH,d plus tad of peroxide then plant in the Coco, throw the dome on and place under a light bulb.
It takes a few days for the Coco to actually draw up the water but it's just about the time the seed sprouts. This has been my foolproof way for many years now...
I start in coco as well, but sometimes I'll pasteurize it in the oven at 200℉ for about 4 hours.
I would use promix, but I don't like it mixing with my Coco come transplant time. It just feels wrong.
