The coco is still moist enough I don't want to water yet. To play it safe I'm squirting a little water in at the far ends of each wastebasket to try to coax the roots out looking for water.

I'm using a hair-dye applicator, which was left over from Oldmac's Grecian Formula job. It's like a condiment squeeze bottle, but clear, more leakproof, and impervious to some chemicals, at least stronger ones than ketchup.

I "chromed" the wastebaskets (metalized duct tape) so they're not transmitting light down to the roots. Mrs. Hermie thinks they look sporty.

Also diluted the salty-ass well water with bottled water (40ppm) down to 370ppm. I'll add some CalMag when I actually dare water. Right now I'm trying not to drown the roots so it's cat-and-mouse with too-dry conditions until we get some roots out there where the action is.

The coco plants look like they're about to bust a move, though. :dance:
