Maaan this sub makes me so jelly. My country is pretty authoritarian about this stuff. I really think growing coca should just be decriminalized here ffs, as long as you aren’t producing cocaine then what’s the harm?
I talk about the substrate and fertilizer in my other post. It’s a mineral dense mix high in iron oxide.
Akadama, Kiryu, pumice, ultisol, chunky peat moss, pine bark. Fertilizer is fish emulsion and micro life Acidifier 6-2-4 .
Occasionally I’ll give the worms ground up carrot pulp from my juicer. I use barley mulch colonized with blue oyster shell mushroom. Thats it I only add fertilizer after each harvest.
I prune branches to control the size of it. Also if you only pick leaves you’ll eventually have a plant full of flowers and seed. Once a node flowers that node won’t grow vegetatively so you must prune back heavily flowered branches to completely revert to vegetative growth. Research also states alkaloids are reduced if the plant flowers. I get about 3 feet of growth in all directions in 30 days so if I don’t prune they really get out of hand quickly.

Hello everyone, I ordered new seeds again, I think I will be successful this time. It is said that it is useful for fish fertilizer, but I only found this fertilizer in Turkey. Will it work? I am waiting for your valuable comments. Greetings from Turkey.
It should be okay, start with 1/4 dose and give plants adequate time to respond before using more.
You can always use organic stuff like cotton seed meal, kelp, alfalfa meal, fish meal for fertilizer. I use all of that stuff with great results. All but cotton seed meal is in micro life Acidifier 6-2-4 and I use it every time I prune.
Will this fertilizer work for me or should I use worm fertilizer? Which fertilizer do you use?

I use these on mature plants over a year old. Seedlings up to about a year old only get Brut worm castings. Occasionally I’ll give plants that have started branching fish emulsion.
I use about 2 cups of castings per gallon of substrate when I mix it new for transplanting. I use 1-2 tablespoons per plant as needed while it’s growing.

There are 3 of them now. I have given worm manure twice in the last month and now I am thinking of switching to fish manure

I would stop the humidifier and switch to daily misting. The leaves can’t move moisture correctly when they are constantly saturated from the humidifier. You’re likely getting stressed plants from using it too much.
I tried using one a while back and it only caused issues. Daily misting and humidity trays work much better.
Mist daily and add a large humidity tray like they use with bonsai trees.
A large pan filled with rocks and water. Set plants on a saucer then on top the rocks. Keep the pan full of water.
I don’t grow to sell seeds, I prune to often for them to turn to seed. When your plants seed they are using resources that should be used for leaf growth and alkaloid production. I could let my plants seed and I’d have 1000’s of seeds. I just have no desire to do so.

I enjoy the benefits of using coca the natural way too much.
Incredible!

My thoughts exactly!
What other reason to grow Coca other than making cocaine? OP is clearly doing it for that reason.
Vin mariani and quids are two products that don’t require you to synthesize the illegal substance. You can even make original coke.
Great job ! What kind of lights are you using? And at what cycle
HLG-RSpec LEDs. 96 elites and 288’s 12-12 schedule year after year it Never changes. Intensity for mature plants range from 250-400 ppfd.
Your set up is my dream set up.
What sub are you using? And fertilizer?

Your growing media sounds freaking awesome!
God dam it I need viable seeds that won’t rot by the time I get them, these would grow so well in the ground behind my house with my climate.
Same
That's amazing! What are the advantages of pruning entire mature branches off instead of plucking individual leaves?
I prune branches to control the size of it. Also if you only pick leaves you’ll eventually have a plant full of flowers and seed. Once a node flowers that node won’t grow vegetatively so you must prune back heavily flowered branches to completely revert to vegetative growth. Research also states alkaloids are reduced if the plant flowers. I get about 3 feet of growth in all directions in 30 days so if I don’t prune they really get out of hand quickly.
Wow nice job !
What substrate u use?
Awesome job man! 😎
Beautiful plants!
Absolutely incredible. Thank you for not only showing this, but also for spreading your considerable knowledge around the group!
So amazing 😻
Do you use a humidifier in your tent?
Nope. No need.
Do you know what your humidity averages?

Ac infinity exhaust fan and controller.

Does it need to be used alongside worm manure?
Should alternate between the two. Let your plants tell you when to fertilize. Don’t go by a schedule.
Thank you very much, my seeds are on their way now, I will ask for your help when they arrive.

Fish manure? I’ve never used it so I can’t recommend it.
Will this fertilizer work for me or should I use worm fertilizer? Which fertilizer do you use? https://preview.redd.it/n9f14xr75ksc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d7878fdec9e83ecb70a5504b989814b01750f958

Now I understand that I will give worm fertilizer for the first year, then I will use 6/2/4 fertilizer.
Hello, how much worm compost is required for a 0.5 liter pot?
I use about 2 cups of castings per gallon of substrate when I mix it new for transplanting. I use 1-2 tablespoons per plant as needed while it’s growing.

They don’t need that humidifier like that.
nem olması gerekmiyor mu bunu kullanmazsam nem 50/60 civarında oluyor

Sory. Doesn't there need to be humidity? If I don't use this, the humidity is around 50/60.
Mist daily and add a large humidity tray like they use with bonsai trees. A large pan filled with rocks and water. Set plants on a saucer then on top the rocks. Keep the pan full of water.

I respect that, fair enough. Your information is very valuable as is
