So you run blumats for DTW coco?It doesn't 'hurt' it does impede you from obtaining maximum growth rates. Try it for yourself. It is undeniable to witness in person. Put half a 4x4 of the same clone on one of these http://waterpulse.com/products/retail-capillary-mats/, a Blumat system, or an Autopot system, and watch how well your hand watering side does in comparison. I don't care how good you are, use a soil hygrometer too, the side that has a constant water source will destroy the other one. There is a reason hydro out performs all other systems...and it isn't because it drowns the root system...
Sounds like a fun experiment for next year.
