BuildASoil: *NEW* THE COCO COIN: ROOTING PUCKS FOR SEEDS, CLONES, AND CUTTINGS (Product Highlight)

[@jovah45]

I bought these for seed starting, so far so good all 34 seeds popped and are growing well.

[@dannybell926]

You're one hell of a guy Jeremy. Testing your products like this before stocking and selling them is top shelf. Thanks for all you do

[@StumpyTales]

Jiffy have Coco pellets as well as the peat ones (at least they do here in Australia). They also make them in multiple sizes.

[@shainhahn]

.......Bro....... after this video aired I bought a 72 coin pack. Have used 8 pucked, just as Jeremy suggested, proud to say so far 100% success rate! I 100% recommend , better rates than using my turbo cloner...

[@blue12334]

Those pucks should have two depths. One for seed and one for clone. That would help em stand out a little more from the competition

[@timpage5021]

The problem with the coins is the same issue with jiffy pellets they are too compressed don’t allow much oxygen . I’ve used em quite a few times. And went back to Root Riot plugs.

[@LucidLeef]

When preparing water/nutrient solution to hydrate the coco coins, make sure to aerate the water and also add h2o2 (hydrogen peroxide). This will aerate the solution so that there is oxygen present within the coco coins as they hydrate.

[@troybailey2615]

Love the scientific method brother! You should also do a control group of your previous method. You rock brother!

[@troybailey2615]

Just ordered. Seems like a no brainier.

[@mopar426power]

I really enjoy these product highlight videos. I've been here long enough to have a good grasp on the products but I still learn something new with every video. More product highlight videos please please please! 🤙🤙

[@lovefortheplant6997]

Your product highlights are genuine and enjoyable to watch. That's rare for most people but you've figured it out. 💚🌱💨

[@257ersSupport]

I agree, thats why I like watching him so much.

[@mikebanks6704]

Char coir is the best coco I've had zero issues everytime I use the 5050 coco perlite mix 🤘🏻🤘🏻 I gotta try these for sure (was thinking about using bio365 for a run tho lol)

[@timturk1899]

Do they make "Char Coir" soilless media, like regular Coco Coir, as well, or are you just speaking of the "plugs"..?! Thanks. Very interesting!👍💯✌️

[@kreparAZ]

I am testing these out right now. Seemed pretty easy to use. Puffed up nicely. Easy to stick the clones in. Should be nice to try seeds soon. I wish the flora flex ones broke down faster. Mine seem to stick around a bit. The root riots were the worst for that tho. Love all the info and tips you share man. My grow goes smooooth following the build a soil way. Low stress and easy to have others water during vacations and stuff. Keep up the great content guys 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@timsmyth7942]

root riot has a light synthetic feed added if i remember correctly, and latex binder, i forget exactly but i looked into them after getting back into growing and thinking they seemed different from what I remembered.

[@617grower7]

That camo build a soil hat 🔥🔥🔥 and you stay gifting the community with knowledge

[@81crispy]

I tried to plant auto seeds in the jiffy things,plant grew a lot smaller than direct planting in final pot,I’m guessing it’s alot more work for the roots to grow through them

[@JamesS.254]

Woot! Got an email yesterday that my Take N' Bake order is being shipped out. I'm excited to finally get my newest tent setup finished, and I'm hoping to have it dialed in by the end of December. Can't wait to see what 2024 brings.

[@timturk1899]

I've used Rapid Rooters, Root Riots (I prefer the Rapid Rooters). Also have used Peat pellets in the past. IDT any of these "totally broke down", and could always see a remainder. Usually the main stem has spread the plug out, extremely, but still could always see some remains. I've heard bad things about some Coco Coir plugs, and terrible success..?! Bad brand maybe..?! These "Char Coir" Coco Coir plugs with (Bio Char..?!), as well, seem to be an entire different beast..?! I'll definitely have to give them a try now! Need to order a few more BAS products, so I won't forget these when ordering! Thanks again Jeremy! 👍💯✌️

[@MsKaysworld]

I use peet pots, I'll have to see about switching. As always awesome helpful information. Thank you Jeremy.

[@NedDenver]

Thanks for the detail you went into with this video! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@samchapple6363]

Like those coins, good recommendation, rockwool is wetter, less air

[@DAVIDSavageGrowsDank]

Was just wondering what I could use to make clones that would degrade into my soil ty so much Jeremy

[@4gz252]

Great information...thanks for all your knowledge and help.

[@charliehammond7117]

First time growing and your channel is the BEST I've been looking for months and my friend sent me your video and BAM the best educational experience I have ever seen. Keep up the great work 👍

[@Joshua-xu7cz]

Very nice.

[@superkoopatrooper4879]

Honestly I need something like this. My last few grows have been coco. Now that I'm back with organics I instantly got damping off on my seedling lol. No doubt my fault for over watering. Coco seed starter pucks would completely avoid that.

[@KyleKline-n9v]

i cut out the x's that hold up the puck in a few so i can drop them down into the tray when they start rooting, works great.

[@brucebaber3172]

Great product for starting, but netting on puck does not break down! Netting needs to be removed prior to transplant.They slowed my auto flowers down on start unless I removed netting. Still viable.

[@ryanwade9024]

I been using Q-plugs, found them on Amazon and they seem to be pretty comparable to the floraflex plugs and they do break down in the soil

[@growingwithmatt]

Jeremy I was wondering when. Do you start topdressing your Earthbox to start training your plants to grab there food from the top

[@gsillzaza]

Love the BAS product infomercials....I'm starting to clone so perfect timing...

[@glennbailey1529]

I use Aloe for cloning. Never had a cut that didn’t grow roots.

[@cuteboi1226]

Getting my fist grow box in the mail soon and these videos are awesome. Thanks so much for the help and info

[@barbaravanerp4598]

Every video it’s “uh oh, I NEED something new and fun”. Dang 😳😎

[@lantheman3808]

Loving the new products! Recently picked up a take and bake kit and I’m loving it as well!

[@todgerx]

Hello Jeremy , congratulations on the success of you're business. Great YT content as always. Ive just finished my 3rd run. I keep messing up the dry and cure. For this run I've been using the ac extraction and ac humidifier. I've been dry now 17 days, and branches are almost snapping, but not at that snap just yet. I have one fan above fixed blowing, but not directly, and one ac fan that is turning on speed 4.. I have been keeping it in 60-61 rh the hole time. Unfortunately I csnt do much about temps. I'm in Ireland, it's cool here now, best temps I can get down is to 62f. I sampled a small piece a few days ago and it was decent.. Had another small sample today and it's pretty harsh.. The ash is dark and it hurts my throat when I inhale.. I csnt understand why my bud go's like this at this stage of drying. I thought this time it wud be different because if be keeping it in range. When I open my 4x4 now where I'm drying, it smells like hay.. But the buds when I gridn them up smell really really nice. The bud grinds pretty good, but when ya sprinkle it, it still has that slight clumpyness to it. Is that few extra degrees a bug different? Why is my ash black.? And if the terps are still there when I grind it, does that mean this harvest can still come good yet? Sry for extra questions, but it's getting frustrating for me now.. I've spent quite a bit and ending up with hay each time lol.. Super frustrating cuz I'm happy enough with everything else.. Il probably just end up doing what I did last few times and infuse it with chocolate lol.. Thanks for considering my questions, keep up the good work. Dave From Ireland 🇮🇪 🇺🇸

[@FacklerFamilyFarms]

Ayeee much love Jeremy and Build-a-soil fam ✌️😎✌️

[@Dab_Marino]

Ha I just grabbed 6 coins last week. Definitely excited about it

[@plogrismaftuskarbuns]

Hi! I love your content and have been watching since season 1. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these. Lately I have been having some severe issues in my grow room and was hoping someone could try and offer some insight. I have been growing for 6 years, 4 years organic and have never had any issues. I live in southern europe and my indoor season runs from october-april as its too hot in the summer months. I've been using Greenhouse feeding bio grow and bio bloom + volcanic rock dust for minerals and everything has been fine, but somehow in my last three grows (two last season and now my first grow this season) looks just horrible. I think any sensible grower would have thrown out the plants by now. My plants look nice and healthy, dark green in the beginning, but then about a week after I transplant into anything from a 10L pot to a 40L pot the plants starts looking awful. It starts with yellowing tips and leaves, then they get some wierd spots that eventually turn brown. Now all the leaves are a very light green/yellowish colour and the 65 day old plants are only 10cm tall. After all this time I just want to throw them out. Some of the plants have dark green vains, and some do not and are just all out light green/yellow. There are no insects in the growroom, and this issue has happened on my last three grows. Buds eventually turn out airy and very weak. No matter what I have tried the situation does not improve. Ive tried drying them out, feeding liquid nutrients, using only water, compost teas, not giving water for 10 days, and nothing seems to work. I check my notes from previous grows and can't see anything I am doing differently, but all of a sudden my plants just makes me sick looking at them. Sorry for the rant, hope someone can share some insight or similar experiences. Much love.

[@dmathis510]

Jeremy@buildasoil did you find that you needed to wring these out after the initial soak or that they held optimal moisture as is?

[@Tom-su9gx]

Hi jeremy, love your work. I've watched all your seasons twice. How on earth do I figure out living soil down in oz from scratch. Where the hell do you even get a 3 x 3 planter?! I want to transition to earth boxes from coco but I am completely lost. Can you please explain from scratch next season. How to source everything from the community. I'm mainly worried about nutrients throughout flower how to know it's getting the goods. Thanks.

[@Sm0k4dee]

Hey Jeremy i really love your videos and the passion of explaining and i would have a question maybe for the next FAQ. I once bought nematodes to battle the fungus gnats and i put them into my sprayer and they had only little to no effect, then ive read that they are to sensible for a sprayer. how does it come that you can spray bacteria like EM1 and Rootwise etc and not nematodes? Are they more resilient against that pressure of the sprayer? Now i just water them slowly and gentle in but thats what im asking myself since...yeah a long time. Thanks for your videos! I wish all of you great holidays, a lot of health and pls keep growing for us! Greetings from Germany!

[@RottenSoul589]

in a clone chamber i just pack the cells with coca cair . make a small hole big enough for a stem . add rooting hormone powder to the hole and put cutting in . pucks are ok but i find them unneeded for the small home grower

[@waynemonroe2203]

Hello Jeremy, I recently purchased these pucks and have been trying to sprout autos seeds in them . I followed what I saw on the videos and in writing. But it’s hit or miss. My rate is 50% or less. Questions are how and how often do these implanted pucks need water if at all? How long till sprouting and growth show in pucks. Lastly does this product provide any nutritional value to the seed. Should I use a liquid nutritional ? Could you do a follow-up video on this product for those having trouble? I’ve planted a lot of seeds without success and am at a loss for what to do next. Thank you for what help you can provide. Wayne M. Maine.

[@timpage5021]

Rockwool is made with formaldehyde. The Root Riot plugs are peat and a polymer.

[@kunst-koder-werkstatt4425]

i still love the good old jiffys for cuttings. but i dont trust the fabric and pull it out while komposting,thats not a big problem. nextyear i want to try the big cocoblocks and fill up the tray with that

[@bryankidder1558]

Can you do a day to day elapse video with the next season in the 10x10 I think that would make a great video

[@pineywoods420]

I recently had some seeds dampen off after sprouting in Organi Plugs but cuttings rooted ok

[@timprout2760]

Great content, I'm just wondering about putting FPJ or Yah Whey in your earthbox reservoir. Are the benefits from the microbes and nutrients that are in FPJ and Yah Whey the same putting them in the reservoir, as opposed to putting them on the soil?

[@testme504]

Hey Jeremy. Im a Maryland resident an do alot of Crabbing during the summertime. I hear you talk about how good crab/crustacean meal can be for your soil. What would be a good way for me to use it in my "Living soil". Would steamed/cooked shells be good or use the raw unsteamed shell? Also if steamed shell are used would it be a good idea to wash all the seasoning off? Thanks for sharing much love from Maryland

[@BakerB.Bakeshop]

When do we get to see you do 16 different cultivars in one 4 x 4 bed?

[@barbaravanerp4598]

Anyone know how jiffy pots compare? Very similar product

[@306choicegenetics4]

Wonder if there was something in manufacturing infected the biochar prior to blending or while blending the air may have had some trichoderma floating maybe..

[@allseeingguy5485]

I do love the peat coins, but I will try these! The peat is too suffocating for clones, I imagine.

[@timpage5021]

These work bout as good. They’re pretty compressed and same issues as the peat pellets.

[@nickphelps5492]

Hey Jeremy! Thanks for all the great info..do you know if hydrogen peroxide is bad in soil for the fungus gnat issue I'm having? Does it kill my microbes or mycelium?

[@nautichunt84]

Have you ever looked into replicating terra preta soil?

[@ashersolomon9560]

I will pop seeds in a solo cup, directly in soil. 1/2 strength mix of my final soil. I usually get an 80% germ rate and to me that’s survival of the fittest. If your seedlings can’t handle your environment then it wasn’t meant to be. All my survivors have been strong ladies to the end.

[@normagee]

i'd like to try them 😎

[@lucasnon1070]

I was wondering why those Pete plugs didn't break down on my worm bin

[@gettin_while_growin1512]

Dang I ordered a bunch of stuff today . I should of added these lol.

[@Mrjboomseedco]

Are the coins able to break apart and down better then jiffy brand I’ve noticed some plants growth get stunted by the paper or fabric material not breaking down or allowing g roots to get through easy I have found in past the paper or fiber that held the coir inside it still as it was in soils even after years so I quit using them a long time ago I just use my homemade ezcloner with a few air stones a small 10 gallon aquarium sponge filter and it’s helped a ton helping keep the water cleaner if anyone is using clone contraptions try it out and see if you notice a difference just a 10 gallon aquarium sponge filter it worked great for me and extended the time between water changes in the cloner

[@ChaseCanFly]

i have a question about no till. i used the take and bake recipe for 15 gallon outdoor pots since i have very compact clay soil. the plants seemed to start to starve and i needed to start top dressing very heavily. i plan to at least double the pot size next year so im probably going to dump the pots out and make more soil and mix it all together. are there any drawbacks to doing this?

[@SamVarli]

Heard about your products tried purchasing some but use don't ship to where I live in Australia. Would like to try your products but don't think it will happen.

[@redshedllc9054]

I tried coco pucks like ten years ago and never liked them . Rapid rooters are better . Many uses too .

Do you sell feeding charts? I use volcanic rock, blood fish meal bone, charge which is is a 100% naturally-produced potting compost enhancer. It provides a wide selection of biological benefits to your plants. It's composed entirely from the beetle droppings (frass), this premium grade 'frass' is packed full of beneficial microorganisms, and natural plant growth catalysts. And use organic bloom by Dr forest, pearl barley in the soil do you think this is over kill?

[@jasonseaward8506]

Did the customer boil the strings? And if so, why did he?

[@GMT439]

CC and CC Ps they don't manufacture the product. They are a retailer. These Pellets/Pucks are sold all over the world under different brand names. None of those actually produce the product either.

This current run was the first time I sowed seeds into their final pots and it was a complete disaster and waste of time, never again

[@Just_A_Name14]

Sounds like user error

[@SmokedGaming_Official]

I would never sow seeds, always papertowel bag method.

[@freedom_born]

Autos? Did you germinate them first in damp paper towel? Did you have a dome over until second *true* leaves showed? Was your soil too hot? Were your seeds viable, from a reputable source? Did you have enough light, or were conditions correct?

[@SmokedGaming_Official]

​@freedom_born you saw where he said sow correct?

[@freedom_born]

@@SmokedGaming_Official Yeah no shit Sherlock. I wasn't really asking to be honest. It was more of a recommended suggestion that the damp paper towel method is considerably more successful - *especially if his soil was too hot* Hence why I asked about his soil.
