Hey all!
I got my first brick of coco a few weeks ago, got some mother’s earth off amazon.
Issue I am having is that my Coco appears water logger. I know I am supposed to fertigate daily and people say not to worry about the coco drying out due to its superior air to water retention ratios. My problem is that I forgot to wash my coco for the first four plants I transplanted into it. Plants planted in the washed coco are getting fertigated daily and drying somewhat by the next day.
picture of unwashed vs washed after 18 hours since fertigation.
So my question is, if I have unwashed coco, loaded with coco peat should I still fertigate daily? Or allow some moisture to dissipate?
Thanks all!!
Unwashed, much denser.
Washed.
