Joke is on u if u thought they were together.. dwc with clay balls .. Coco is a separate grow .. sori to ruin Ur fun
I’d hope so. It’s still funny but. Make sure you post up weekly shots of the roots in the dwc so we can all see the root rot develop

Nah. I've made my own setup and design with built in system to flush weekly ... ..thanks for your concern though mate , but I'm fitting a drip feed as well with a separate Res so it can clean and replace when it deems fit. I don't wanna confuse ya though

It’s coco it should be constantly moist. It isn’t soil that needs a wet/dry cycle. Once the rootball is established in coco it should be fed at least once a day minimum.
I guess that would depend on a lot of variables ie. pot size, indoor or outdoor.. Too wet u’ll have issues too dry u’ll have more issues.
It’s more a matter of working it out for your own particular setup/conditions.

No it’s pretty well understood in the wider community that coco rarely suffers from over watering and what most people mistake for over watering is actually under oxygenation from having stagnant water in the root zone. If you look up a little bit of the science on coco every time you water it (either top or bottom feeding) you push or pull the stagnant, non oxygenated, nutrient out and replace it with new oxygen rich nutrient as well as whatever oxygen you’ve pulled into the root zone via capillary action. The more often you do this the better. It’s why the guys getting the best out of coco feed 4+ times a day.

Coco isn’t dirt and should never be dry.

Please try and confuse me.

Congrats your the first person to build there own system, wonder how many of those fail for whatever reason. How many air stones you running?

Ch
Coco is pretty much hydro and you can’t rewlly over water, just under oxygenate. Next time only water around the edges into you’ve got an established root ball then start fully saturating the pots 1 or more times a day (more is better) until you get at least 20% runoff each time which you tip down the drain.

If you treat coco like dirt you’ll have all kinds of problems starting with calcium and magnesium lockout


All this is assuming your actually a real account and not someone’s sock.
Hi Mate someones sock here hahahahaha here thanks for the advice hopefully I’ll get back on track and get some healthy buds ✌

I’m not coco. And the roundup joke was to the guy who called himself a sock and took it fine.

As for the advice. Get rid of the bacteria traps before they cause an issue. Look up rdwc and principles of adding dissolved oxygen back into the solution without air stones.
