Nice container. What size is it? What are you using for a wick and what size?
I would agree with TightenUp on the top watering. I haven't used coir, but I know there are more than a few posts on it here.
That seems like a lot of perlite whether the base is peat or coir. I guess I am not surprised that is is running on the dry side. The 2-1-1 seems like a better ratio but I haven't used vermiculite either.
Take a look at Raybo's 3-2-1 mix using peat if you haven't already.
