This, with regard to growing in coir. ^^^2 gallons isn't near enough for 15gal of coco, especially for the first watering if you didn't pre soak it. Coco without added aeration can be prone to dry pockets in larger containers, so extra runoff and vigilance are in order.
I know cap does feed-feed-water, do you know why @Seamaiden and not feed-water-feed-waterThis, with regard to growing in coir. ^^^
15gals is a LOT of media, so my own advice is this--cut your feeding schedule to one quarter the typical dosing and feed-feed-feed instead of feed-feed-water. Make sense? This should help prevent salt buildup.
That makes sense, thank you. Should I still water with more water untill I get runoff or stick with my two gallons but 1/4 stength feed every time?This, with regard to growing in coir. ^^^

I think everyone has their own reasons. Mine are that I am cheap and don't like wasting money, so fertilizer that has to be flushed out of the medium is a huge waste of money (and water) in my world, those would be my primary reasons.I know cap does feed-feed-water, do you know why @Seamaiden and not feed-water-feed-water
That's a tough call without seeing the plants or knowing how long it's taking the media to dry out. Assuming they're looking good, then I would simply use the same amount IF that's what the plants are calling for.That makes sense, thank you.
