Hey I bought this coco and it claimed to be balanced ph and free of salt but when I planted I didn't really notice because it was getting dark, and today I found tons of salt pieces in the soil, should I take the plant out of the salt coco and put it in better?

Did you taste it to see if it's salt? I would do that first. Then if needed either remove, then flush the coco and then repot. Depending on the size and when you transplanted can determine the decision. You could also flush with the plant in the pot and for me size of plant and drainage would be a factor.

It's either a crystal clear grain of sand or its salt, but they not hard to find scattered around, I'm going to taste it but it's the size of table salt ground pieces,

I was also thinking sand is a possibility. What brand is it? When using coco coir I use/used GH cocotek. I now use coco chips and am in love.

Hey the brand is Royal gold, and it's their fiber bag, while looking for salt I found a very small clear maggot looking thing should I worry about those, they aren't all over it, was pretty hard to find one.
