Hi guys, I would appreciate it if I could have some feedback as to how often people water their plants when growing in Coco. I am growing in 40 litre pots so quite large and have a 75% Coco 25% Perlite mix.

I am using the Canna Coco A + B base nutrients along with Cannazyme. I will also be using PK 13/14 for parts of my Flower stage.

As it stands, I am watering every 48 hours. I am watering to around 20% runoff. Around 6 litres of water per plant. I have not noticed the coco drying out much and the plants are growing well. (No deficencies yet)

This is my first Coco grow, I normally grow DWC but due to several recent power cuts I have decided not to risk my pump turning off for three days at a time any longer lol.

I appreciate your input.

Thanks. :-)
 
You will need to extrapolate this to fit your situation (and yeah those are BIG pots)
anyway, for 2Gal pots I'm feed 4x/day for 7 seconds ...no runoff (using Drip Clean)
 
Depends on the plants and how much they want. I run 2gal bucket and normally feed every day. Sometimes its ever other day. I watch the top of the bucket if it looks completely dry the plant gets fed. If it still looks moist or partially moist I wait a day. Hand watered, no run off.
