Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ideal pH range for Canna Coco Professional Plus?
The recommended pH for your nutrient solution when using Canna Coco Professional Plus is between 5.5 and 6.2 for optimal nutrient uptake.Can I reuse Canna Coco Professional Plus?
Yes, Canna Coco Professional Plus can be reused. However, it's generally recommended to use fresh coco for each grow cycle to avoid salt buildup and potential pest issues. If reusing, ensure thorough flushing, sterilisation, and re-buffering.How do you re-buffer Canna Coco Professional Plus?
Re-buffering used coco coir is a multi-step process to prepare it for another grow cycle. After harvesting, remove old root material and flush the coco thoroughly with plain water to remove residual salts. Then, re-buffer it by soaking it in a solution of calcium and magnesium like Canna CalMag Agent at the recommended dosage. This recharges the cation exchange sites that may have been depleted during the previous grow. After buffering, flush again lightly to remove any excess salts from the buffering solution, and it will be ready for reuse. However, for best results and to minimise risks, many growers prefer to start with fresh coco coir for each new cultivation cycle.Is Canna Coco Professional Plus suitable for hydroponic systems?
Absolutely. Canna Coco Professional Plus is excellent for hydroponic systems, especially coco coir-based setups. Its structure provides superb water retention while maintaining vital aeration for roots. Ensure you use nutrients specifically formulated for coco coir in hydroponic applications.What is the difference between CANNA Coco Natural and Professional Plus?
The primary difference lies in the level of pre-buffering and convenience. Canna Coco Professional Plus is fully pre-buffered, washed, and ready to use straight from the bag, providing immediate pH stability and nutrient availability. It's designed for maximum ease of use. Canna Coco Natural, on the other hand, is only lightly buffered and pre-soaked. This means it offers growers more control over the buffering process and initial nutrient profile. Essentially, Professional Plus is a "plug-and-play" option, while Natural provides more customisation for experienced growers. Both are high-quality, RHP certified coco coir products.Does CANNA Coco Professional Plus have perlite in it?
No, Canna Coco Professional Plus consists of 100% coco flakes (coconut coir) and does not contain perlite. Its unique structure of selected coco flakes is designed to provide an optimal water/air ratio (73% water, 23% air) naturally, promoting healthy root development and efficient drainage without the need for additional amendments like perlite. Some growers may choose to add perlite or clay pebbles to their coco for specific reasons (e.g., increased drainage or faster dry-backs), but it is not a component of the product itself. Canna also offer a Coco Pebble Mix which is a premium mix of Canna Coco Professional Plus (60%) and Canna Aqua Clay Pebbles (40%).SKU: 1051Free delivery on orders over £60*
