watering question

[hawk2319]

hi i just had a basic question me and my partner are arguing about. we started from seed and are at about day 14.
should i give my babies a good watering and wait till they dry completely out in 3 or four days and then water them again? or should i just give them enough for the day and then hit them again the next morning when they are completely dry? or is that just a tease? i know that when they go dry it promotes root growth, but i feel like we should be giving them a good watering and leaving them alone instead of harassing them every day or every other day. please set me strait. much appreciated in advance.

I like to water before they ask for it. If they ask for it, you waited to long.

give it a good watering then leave it to dry out and so on:rastasmoke:

yeah, you want to water enough so at least 10% drains out the bottom. Otherwise, you'll get toxic salt and nutrient build up. Then let them dry out a bit
