Watering
What eggrole1 and klondike_bar said. Just from my own experience...do NOT water every day. If you water every day, one of two things is happening. One--You're watering with such a small amount of water that it isn't reaching all of the roots before it begin absorbed into the soil and drying out. That's bad. Two--you water so much that your roots can't take in soil nutrients because they're drowning from all the damn water. That's bad too.
The idea is to water enough so that you roots are able to absorb soil nutrients. As it becomes more difficult for roots to get at what's in the soil, they grow out in search of more. That's how you get good root growth. Really, watering every 2 or 3 (or even 4) days is enough, IMO. Just check your soil or pot weight.Roughrider Reviewed by Roughrider on . Watering Hi, i have 7 plants that are in vegetive grow and im watering them 200ML of water in 1 gal containers. Is this a good amount? im planning to water them 400Ml of water when they go into larger container for flowering. Does it really matter how much i water them? Thanks Rating: 5
