i think @Aqua Man is MIA but to help him answer the question. you increase the frequency of watering when your runoff is less than 20% so lets say when you water once at 100ml the run off should be 20 ml, when the runoff is less than 20ml then you start watering twice a day, and when watering twice a day the run off is less than 20 % you increase it to 3 times a day and etc.Hey all, I'm about to start week 1 veg and I've been following watering advice from Aqua Man and coco for cannabis to great success. (I know there's a debate on watering coco). I've read that watering twice a day during flower is a thing. What should I use to determine when to start that? My coco has stayed 80-90% saturated for my entire grow, the past 2 days I've noticed a tiny bit (I must emphasize TINY BIT) of the top of the coco drying by the time I'm feeding them each day. Should I wait another week or two for twice a day feedings? What are your thoughts coco peeps?
Afaik aquaman does like 14 small feedings per day so like what are you getting 1 or 2 feedings from?Thanks everyone, sorry my pots are 3 gallons, girls are getting hefty. I've been doing great with once a day just read on coco for cannabis that you should do 2-3 times a day once they get big.
You will be using much smaller amounts of nutrient solution and by feeding much more frequently it doesn't take much to get your runoff while keeping the rootzone ph, ppm and moisture content ideal.
I had a lot of help on it here. And in my coco thread I give some links and info to my equipment. I will work on a thread today as I have had lots of questions on it.Sorry for the hijack- where can I learn about how to best set up auto feeding ?
Can anyone link me to a thread or tutorial or something please?
Of course itβs being fed that much. Look at those roots popping out. LolThis is a 1 gallon fabric holding a big plant being fed 16x a day. 20% runoff every feed. Fabric never gets dry, never any salt buildup. Roots are able to air prune through the entire pot. The top of this plant is a meter square 6 weeks into flower.

Also you have algae on top of your perlite? I thought that was bad for plants?This is a 1 gallon fabric holding a big plant being fed 16x a day. 20% runoff every feed.

Algae ARE plants lolAlso you have algae on top of your perlite? I thought that was bad for plants?
Just the watering system about $165. I just broke it down in another thread actually. I'll be back with a linkHave you ever done a full breakdown of your set up? I would really appreciate a walk through.
At least for starters, what does a setup like that cost to put together?
