With the watering, its called a "weed" for a reason, it grows like one. It likes it dry SOMETIMES! Now I'm not saying let the thing prune up, but let the soil get good and dry for about a day, then water it, the thing will shoot up, this simulates raining. Think about when a plant is outside and there's no rain, it starts to slow the grow and just chill, then when it gets water, BOOM, lots of growth. Try it out, its your first grow. I went through like 3 before I even got a harvest.
