When to water?

Loulou84started grow question 5y ago
When should I water? I killed the my first one with over watering I think so not going to make the same mistake. Pot was soaked 5 days ago, seed planted 3 days ago and broke soil 2 days ago. It still feels slightly damp. How does she look? Can't believe how fast she's growing

At this stage instead of soaking your whole pot.. Do 2-3 shot glass fulls of water right at the stem.. help that girls taproot grow down before growing out.. do this for about a week or so then maybe up it to like 4-5 shot glasses.. when she hits her 5th node then start soaking the entire medium. This will help give her the most healthy and strong root system! Happy growing!

You water when your soil looks dry the first inch or two. If your plant start to wilt and you lift your pot and feels super light, you need to water ASAP. Cannabis hate dry pot. Especially hydroponics or during flowering stage. It can shock the plant and kill it. Many of us use the “lift the pot to feel the weight”

I did that every night. and then with a mister i just slightly moistened the top of my medium to help keep it all from drying out.

Never soak, just add a little water each day. Use a turkey baster or shot glass. Most ppl kill their girl by using tap water! It should be distill, clean with no chlorine ( shocks the crap out of them), make sure to pH water around 6.0 to 6.5. it will be fine and as it gets bigger it can handle more water with nutrient. After a few times, you will see the leaves tell you what it wants. Remember less is more with cannabis....or everyone could grow it easily!

How often should I do that? Just when it's dry on the surface?
