I'm planning my first grow in a 2:1 coco/ perlite mix in 5 gallon fabric pots. I have GH Flora series and CalMag nutrients.
Because of work I really only have time once a day to water/feed and tend to the plants. I was wondering how much should I be watering in these size of pots. I understand from reading that I need to water until 10-20% runoff at bottom. Would ~1/2 gallon of nutrient water be enough to keep the coco moist for 24 hours? Should I lower perlite in my medium ratio so my mix retains the water longer since I will only water once a day?
I'm also looking for a feeding chart and found this one, does it look good? It says to feed every other watering though, but I read that coco needs nutes every watering.
Thanks for the help!
