Coco coir is one of the most forgiving ways to grow hydroponically, and one of the easiest to feed badly with a nutrient that was not built for it. GT Coco Grow is Growth Technology's two-part base nutrient formulated specifically for coco fibre through the vegetative stage. Part A and Part B are kept in separate bottles so minerals that would react in a single concentrate only meet once they are diluted. Add Part A at 3–4ml per litre and stir it through, then add the same amount of Part B. Growth Technology's combined A and B analysis carries total nitrogen 5.52% w/v, potassium 6.14% and calcium 4.5%, with magnesium, sulfur and the trace elements. Test and adjust the pH to 5.5–6.5. Every set is a matched Part A and Part B: 2 × 1L, 2 × 5.5L or 2 × 20L. Switch to GT Coco Bloom A&B for flowering.

Grower's Tip
- Never pour Part A and Part B into each other, or into a small amount of water together. Add A to the full volume of water and stir it through, then add B. That is Growth Technology's mixing order.
- Use the same measure of B as A, every time. An uneven mix shifts the balance the formula was built on.
- Additives go in after A and B, and the pH gets tested and adjusted last. Silica is the exception: Growth Technology puts it into the plain water first, with a 15-minute rest, before Part A.
- Start young plants at 3ml per litre of each part and move towards 4ml as they grow, adjusting to the conductivity you want.
- Coco holds water well. Let watering follow how fast the pots dry back, not the calendar.
- A 1L set at 4ml per litre of each part makes 250 litres of solution. The 2 × 5.5L set suits a tent on a regular feed; the 2 × 20L set is for bigger rooms.
- Store both bottles somewhere cool and dark.

Silica by Growth TechnologyPotassium silicate for stronger cell walls and stems. Growth Technology's order: Silica into plain water first, rest 15 minutes, then the base nutrient.
pH Down by Growth TechnologyGrowth Technology's direction is to test and adjust to pH 5.5–6.5 after mixing. This is what brings it down.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is GT Coco Grow made for coco coir?
Yes. Growth Technology formulates GT Coco specifically for coco fibre. Coco Grow covers the vegetative stage and Coco Bloom covers flowering.
Can I mix Part A and Part B together in one bottle?
No. Keep the concentrates separate. Add Part A to the full volume of water and stir it through, then add an equal amount of Part B.
How much do I use?
3–4ml of Part A per litre of water, then the same amount of Part B, adjusted to reach the conductivity you want.
Do I need to adjust the pH?
Yes. Growth Technology's direction is to test and adjust to 5.5–6.5 after A, B and any additives are mixed in.
What is in a set?
One Part A and one Part B of the same size: 2 × 1L, 2 × 5.5L or 2 × 20L. You need both parts to make the nutrient.
When do I switch to GT Coco Bloom?
When the plants move into flowering. Coco Grow is formulated for the vegetative stage and Coco Bloom for flowering.
Can I use GT Coco Grow outside coco?
It is not what it is made for. Growth Technology formulates GT Coco for coco fibre. For other hydroponic systems, its single-bottle Ionic range is the alternative.
What EC should I run?
Growth Technology's product directions do not set an EC target. They say to adjust the dilution rate to reach the conductivity you want for your plants.
What is the analysis?
Growth Technology publishes a combined A and B analysis: total nitrogen 5.52% w/v (nitrate 5.20, ammonium 0.31), phosphorus 1.0%, potassium 6.14%, calcium 4.5%, magnesium 1.0% and sulfur 1.32%, plus six trace elements. The full table is in Specifications.
