And I have read that advanced nutrients has something that will allow you to make the coco better than just plain peat n perlite.
As it is it ain't, well not really.

Coco Coir is a fantastic new root zone media made from spun coconut hulls, but it won’t do you any good if you use regular hydroponics fertilizers with it.
You can’t use regular hydroponics fertilizer in coco coir and get good results. That’s because coco coir has unique chemical properties and water-holding characteristics that negatively interact with fertilizers designed for other hydroponics root zone media.
More and more growers are finding out that using Advanced Nutrients Monkey Juice Grow is the only way to properly fertilize vegetative phase plants growing in coco coir hydroponics gardens.
Coco coir is superior to most other types of root zone media and helps plants grow faster and produce larger yields. It lasts longer than rockwool and other root media. Using coco coir saves you money on hydroponics root zone media.
MONKEY
JUICE GROW
· Prevents Coco Toxicity
· Makes Super-Fast Veg Phase Growth
· Guaranteed THE best Coir Fertilizer
But if you use regular hydroponics fertilizers in coco coir gardens, you will see decreased growth rates and small harvest size. Coco “locks up” some nutrients while over-releasing others.
It has to be properly fertilized and pH- balanced or it can skew nutrient availability so plants grow slowly and produce less.
That’s why smart growers are glad Advanced Nutrients did relentless coco coir research to design two-part Monkey Juice Grow so it maximized the benefits of coco coir.
In extreme cases, plants grown with the wrong hydroponics fertilizer in coco coir may sicken and die. But there’s good news: using Monkey Juice Grow maximizes the value of coco coir and ensures fast, strong growth and short internodes.
