Like harythehat said 👍🏻 I also prefer a wet/dry cycle so the roots can breath and go searching for water.I only water or feed my plant when my pot feel light when I pick them up..I’m now early in flower stage in a 5gal coco fabric pot and she get around 6l with 600ml runof so I can check Ec every 2 day’s.and never 2 feeds in a row because my 400w hps evaporates a lot of water so my pots are dry but still full of nutrients. Later in flower she gets a daily 6l and at the end she’s fine with 6l for a week It changes constant during the lifecycle of a plant And It’s a bit of a search for what works best for you when your new to growing Don’t be afraid to make mistakes,it’s a lesson learned and they are strong ladies,they can recover from most damage if you grow photoperiod strains Good luck with your grow 🌱💪🏻🔥✌️

coco holds water like a sponge but heat evaporates water out of it quickly I’ve learned to water it every time light turns on and couple times a day when the plant is thirsty and it’s hotter.coco needs more attention only water 1 liter of water per 5 gallons of dirt each watering So you don’t flush out what you are adding in nutrients roots will grow fast and absorb all you add but watch the bottom of you’re pot you can stick you’re finger in that coco and feel it also to check how dry it is don’t be shy

Hi @TheReaper take the pot and control it by weight, coco soil when it's too wet it gets too heavy and when it's too dry it gets too light. you can also gently with your finger on the coconut until the first ring of the finger, if the cocosoil is dry, add more watering, and if it is wet, hold on for a few more hours until watering. good luck mate 👍

go by your soil use a wet too dry routine, or you will harm your lady if its dried out during the day re water water needs to uniformly spread so all the root get some. check deep down in substrate to see if its dry, little finger works well for this.
