actually the drainage is great
i cant' even water past 10mL without getting it running out of the bottom
it wicks water really great when it's wet, as soon as i drop the water in the whole thing
absorbs the water, i see it through the white sides of the cup, it gets darker all over

i finally got some stink to mine too. it is better now, but it started when i placed the cups in a bin with water/ferts in it. it was suposed to drink the water from the bottom but instead it went stagnant and stunk. i flushed real well and dont water that way anymore, it is back to normal now. these drink a qt of water/ferts every other day for 9 cups. i still get drainage but not alot runs off.

Coir and nutes
oh my god, my adventures with coco have lead me to great new heights
this is my plant lucy, at i think 11 days old, she popped out of the ground on feb 29

what i do is for like 3.5oz or 100mL of feed water i use half a mL of hydrogen peroxide (3%)
it's almost like my plant is growing in hydro
im sure if i had a bigger pot and brighter more powerful lights than t5 that i'd have it at
twice its size
you gotta try it out!!!
but that's the thing though, pot size doesn't matter with coco cuz it's like handwatered hydro,
it'll grow big anyways

true, you can grow bigger in little pots if you are willing to do the work everyday.
