Hobbyists who wish to preserve the usability and value of a puzzle, but still wish to display, will need a specialized frame. While these frames are often described as "500 piece puzzle frames" or "1,000 piece puzzle frames," purchasing one based on actual length and width measurements is recommended for more accuracy. Because the frame will be the only thing keeping your puzzle in place, it is important to find a frame that will fit your puzzle as securely as possible. Some frames called "jigsaw puzzle frames" are just ordinary frames made to fit common puzzle sizes, and will not hold your puzzle together without glue. Instead, you'll need a specialized frame, which is often more expensive. While you may attempt to use any frame with a solid back and front portion, finding one specific to jigsaw puzzles is recommended, as a jigsaw puzzle is thicker and more fragile than the posters and photographs ordinary frames are usually used for.  Try the glass-fronted, aluminum MyPhotoPuzzle frames, or the adjustable-size Versaframe.  Note: there are a couple cheaper options for displaying your puzzle, at the end of this section. The exact design of a jigsaw puzzle frame varies between brands. For MyPhotoPuzzle frames, carefully press the glass onto the puzzle surface, flip the glass and puzzle together face down, then lower the backboard over the back of the puzzle. Make sure one of the hanging attachment on the backboard is located at the top of the puzzle, or it will be upside down. Lower the frame over the backboard and glass, then lower every clip around the backboard's edge to fasten it to the frame. The Jigframe comes with a sheet of acrylic plastic, protected with paper on both sides. Briefly warm the sheet in the sun or near a heater if necessary to help peel off the paper. Slide or construct the puzzle on top of one of the included "Jigsheets." Slide open the drawer in the frame, place the Jigsheet with the puzzle face-up on top of it into the drawer, then cover the puzzle with the acrylic sheet. Slide it back into the frame.  Instead of sliding the puzzle, You can use one of the Jigsheets to lay over the puzzle and help keep it steady while you flip it over, then lay the other Jigsheet over the back of the puzzle, and flip it face up again. If the puzzle is much smaller than the frame, a small piece of cardboard is included to place on the Jigsheet, below the puzzle's lower edge, to center the puzzle. Other companies may use a different system than the ones described above. An adjustable frame may be sold in two pieces, which are slid together over the puzzle and locked into the correct position. Some coffee tables have an additional glass surface that can be screwed on and off the table. Place a jigsaw puzzle under this layer for display. These envelopes are typically made of polypropylene, and may be labeled "archival grade." This will keep your puzzle safe from moisture and other sources of damage. However, these are more typically used for prints and photographs, and may be hard to find in sizes appropriate for medium or large puzzles.

One-sentence summary -- Measure your puzzle's length and width. Choose a jigsaw puzzle frame that does not require glue. Assemble a MyPhotoPuzzle frame. Assemble a Jigframe. Follow the instructions that come with other frames. Alternatively, display it under a glass coffee table. Use a clear plastic preservation envelope instead.


Cocopeat is very high in Potassium, but low in Calcium. It is therefore necessary to charge the bag with high levels of Calcium to bring these levels in proper balance. To do this, charge solution is changed so that the amount of Potassium used is replaced by the same amount of Calcium Nitrate. For example, if your solution required 200kg of Potassium Nitrate and 250kg of Calcium Nitrate, you would replace the 200kg of Potassium Nitrate with Calcium Nitrate. This would give you a total of 450kg of Calcium Nitrate and no Potassium Nitrate. 48 hours or longer, if possible. Cut at the bottom of the bag as per your drain holes. Once planted, the feed solution will return to normal, however, it is recommended that the calcium level of the solution is increased by 20% for the first three weeks.  The recommended levels for pH and E.C. are as follows: pH = 5.8 as the coconut has a tendency to be more acidic E.C. = 3.5 – 4.0 Recommended Nutrient Levels for Cucumbers in Coconut (in ppm):  Chloride: 20 – 40 Nitrate: 250 – 350 Ammonium: 0.1 – 3 Sulfate: 300 – 500 Phosphorus: 50 – 75 Calcium: 350 – 450 Potassium: 350 – 450 Sodium: 10 – 40 Boron: 0.8 Iron: 1.2 Manganese: 0.5 Magnesium: 50 – 80 Copper: 0.05 Zinc: 0.4 Molybdenum: 0.05   These levels may vary based on your level of conductivity particularly in the major elements. Initially, the pH in the bags may fall to levels below 5.0. This occurs as the organic matter in the bag begins to break down. Low pH has shown no adverse effects on the crop, but it is recommended that the feed pH be held on the higher side just below 6.0. as watering amounts increase the pH in the bag will also increase. The watering strategy for cocopeat growbag differs from that of rockwool growing medium. Due to the nature of Coconut Coir and its capillary action the bags should be watered at low frequency and higher duration times. Total water volumes will remain the same or slightly lower but delivery of the solution will be in larger volumes per watering.  In early crop plantings it is recommended that moisture levels in the Cocopeat Growbags be kept low as root development in Coconut Coir can be quite rapid and large. This may result in Odeima if water levels are allowed to remain high in low light conditions. After the plant is put on the bag it is recommended that watering should occur only until the roots are established in the Growbag. Watering should then stop until the roots are thoroughly established in the Growbag, reaching the bottom of the bag. Once this has occurred, normal watering may commence but with little leachate, about 10% maximum. When fruit development begins, water can then be increased to a 20% leachate. Water quantities per Growbag will depend on environment and plant development.
