Coco coir

i like to get up close with my plants, so i hand water, but timers work just fine. i hear a lot of people getting good results watering twice a day, i've even heard of people watering up to 5 times a day, but that seems excessive to me. i'd use a halo instead of a drip head, though, i've found that even a slow drip will erode a big hole in your coco...which is usually just an esthetic problem, but it can expose roots, which can then dry out.

Now that all that shite is mixed into your coco how the fuck can you work out how much to feed or water the plants. Good way to burn roots and fry plants. Perlite and coco is fine, both are inert mediums. You are no longer able to treat your medium as hydro. more like soil now.
Sorry if that's rather blunt but hey lol.

Can tell you the tube has a lot of info you might have missed. Ever heard of testing the media? Plants love earworm castings and I love the flavor. Appreciate your idea and agree it would be less time consuming.
