Coco you pretty much water daily. I do every other day. I’m a hybrid coco, peatmoss , perlite. Blend. And I’m watering daily.
If you are using LEDs. Make sure to use calmag very often. Coco has some special properties that attract nuet atoms. Look into charging your coco.before a grow. Might help.

hey buddy!! So what nutes are you using dry amendments or bottled?
Coco is like hydro/kratky method water it until run off just a tiny bit of run off!! Lift it and feel the weight!!
And let it go for day or two and feel it!!
7 gals are big i only use 3 and 5gal
You need some air to the roots from time to time in flower to boost the buds and make the plant hungry!!
And as for water you can use river water but its ur ph you need to check my plants thrive in 6.2-6.5 ph
City water you need to sit out 24 hrs or more and better with air pump and stones!!
Hope it helps!! Cheers!!!

You can wster daily but dont lol they grow alot better if you let them drink up a bit also the amount of nutrients you go through when ypu feed every day is pretty excessive and expensive. 2 to 3 days is good. I do 1 gallon of water for a 5 gal pot in flower in veg i let the pots get light kinda like soil but not bone dry. Just dont let the root ball dryout and dont let it sit in the runoff water. Use a riser to keep the pot out of the runoff. Any questions feel free man i been using coco for years.

Amount of water to use depends upon the size of plant to container and environment. Small plants in big pot = water less often Big plants in small pot water more often. Ideally find that happy medium where your plants aren’t too big for the pot and don’t put a tiny plant in a huge pot. Transplanting 2-3 times and the plant grows. Check the plants every day to see how moist the coco is and how heavy the containers are. Start with fully saturating the coco with a light nutrient mix until you get 10-20% run off. Depending on the environment you should only have to water every 3-4 days and then increasing as the plants get larger to possible every day or multiple times a day.

Root Riot cubes all the way. I’ve never liked the paper towel method as there is a lot of things that can go wrong.

They should acclimate fine after a couple days. T5s always worked well for me just need to keep them close to the canopy.

If you have the josey whales gg4 cut then be prepared to water often. She is a vigorous one. Tripled in size in flower

Either way is fine. You can also use your propagation bed fill it with soil and let them germ in there. Just sift through the soil after a few days. Find the worms and plant em.
Many many different ways. Justbuse what ever works for you.

And to be honest 7 gal coco pots is overkill unless you plan to grow TREES.

I don’t know depends on who makes the pots. I have 3 gallon radical bags that can hold like 5 gallons of coco.
GG4 was found by Josey Whales not nirvana.
No worries bro. Hope you get better
