Hi
@Jw3287 Although it looks like soil, coconut must be treated as Hydro and nutrients for coconut must be chosen. However, there are those who mix hummus and guano powder. If watering is manual, you should choose larger pots so that you don't have to water every day. The larger the pots, the lower the frequency of watering. The runoff must be discarded. Automatic watering: Usually a pump is placed in the Sn tank which in turn will distribute Sn through the plants. In this case it is not necessary to have very large pots and you can do several watering in the first hours of light, since watering in small amounts helps to oxygenate the roots. In automatic irrigation you can take advantage of the runoff, making it go back into the deposit, however most of the growers I know do not take advantage of the runoff, which has some positive aspects: A smaller fluctuation of Ph and Ec in the deposit of Sn. A “clean” solution. Less likelihood of gutter clogging.
