I found the coir liner dried out way too quickly and required far more watering than I wanted to do.

I had planted a Sansevieria parva in it. It was kind of neat as the plant would develop new plantlets growing through the coir. I ended up having to soak the whole container to water.

I read later that the coir could be lined with a plastic for better moisture retention.
