I didn’t add any perlite, I don’t water every day, but when the top of the coco dries out, it should be watered.

I may try that next grow My Covert Brother. Just straight coco? :v::call_me_hand:

Yep, just straight coco. It holds moisture a little better, longest I went was 4 days, plant was wilted at that point. Wouldn’t try that in flower, but it definitely lengthens the timeframe a bit. Flowering in my opinion requires more frequent watering times anyways, so the flowering stage is a moot point even in soil. I pretty much water every day, or every other, no matter soil or coco, in flowering phase.

I’m in pure coco, nothing else. I CAN get away without feeding for a day if I completely saturated it the day before. Other than that, once the roots fill up the pot, it’s feed every day for the most part

Time to look into auto pots! I’ll let you know how mine do but I was kinda the same way. I didn’t want to water everyday but also wanted to try coco. Pretty soon I’ll only be checking ph daily in my reservoir as it should last a few days. Plants are looking awesome as usual bro :sunglasses:

It depends on what you go with. A four pot system starts around $265 with a 12 gal reservoir and a six pot system starts around $435 with a 25 gal reservoir. I went with one 12 gal reservoir per tent that will feed two plants. I’ll see how long it lasts when they start to get thirsty.

The more frequent watering deterred me from coco at first as well. Then I figured I’m checking on the daily anyways, how much more is it to feed them while I’m in there anyways. And the time you save dealing with lock out, flushes, etc makes the frequent watering worth it.

@AfgVet Your words are so true My Sister and I just bought a battery powered sprayer that makes my watering time 15 minutes instead of a hour. Thank you for dropping in and your guidance and knowledge is deeply appreciated! :sunglasses::v::call_me_hand:
