Why not? With it being inert? I cannot see any harm getting the coco up to moisture with a very light feed?

I understand the seed has enough energy for the first few days.

I have always done it, wondering if I can drop the faff??!

Edit : using ro I have to make a light mix of cal mag and stuff! Doh, answered my own question.

How would you do it in soil?

Off course it can be done from one reservoir, but ultimately not everyone may thrive.

Doing what you suggest would kill most of my autos as it simply is just too hot for them. Often my autos never hit 0.4EC above base even at full maturity

Yeah, my base is 0 which is why I be-latedly realised why I have to make a very light feed. Feeding them RO would definately kill them! I think we are talking similar levels, from 0 I raise to 0.2 with cal mag. (After silicon), then a+b to up to 0.28 and then add Rhizo and meta boost to get to 0.3. Even making up 5lt, it is minute amounts of everything.

I cannot use my tap water!

Agreed, rarely am I above 0.55EC, especially with Meph girls :-)

Well yeah in soil you get the odd runt with different needs but sounds like with coco would be more complicated regarding specific needs Plant to Plant
